Automatic Circulating
Water Heaters
The A. O. Smith high efficiency condensing XP Water Heater utilizes a
state-of-the-art heat exchanger and control technology to provide large
volumes of hot water for demanding commercial and industrial potable
hot water applications. The all stainless steel water tube heat exchanger
construction allows the XP Water Heater to operate in a continuous
condensing mode while maximizing longevity and delivering thermal
efficiencies as high as 99% when operating in low temperature
applications.
A unique multi-burner design is control sequenced and modulated to
produce turndown rates of up to 20:1. Precise temperature control and
accurate load matching produce smooth system operation and
eliminates wasteful short cycling and temperature overshooting.
