SMITH 100108440 is a screw-in water heater heating element designed for residential and light commercial electric water heater service. Built with an Incoloy nickel-alloy sheath, it operates at 240 volts and 3000 watts, delivering a low-watt density output that reduces scale buildup and extends service life compared to standard higher-density elements. At 12 inches in length, it fits a wide range of tank configurations. A gasket is included in the package, making replacement straightforward for licensed plumbers and water heater service technicians.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis element is suited for residential and light commercial electric water heater applications where low-watt density performance is specified. Low-watt density elements are commonly selected in hard-water service areas or wherever extended element life and reduced mineral fouling are a priority. The screw-in mounting style is standard across a broad range of electric tank water heaters, and the included gasket eliminates the need for a separate trip to source one before the repair can be completed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIncoloy nickel-alloy sheath resists corrosion and scale buildup in hard-water environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLow-watt density design extends element service life and reduces mineral fouling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated 3000 watts at 240 volts for reliable heating performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e12-inch element length fits a wide range of residential and light commercial tank configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScrew-in mounting style for straightforward removal and installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIncludes gasket — no separate seal sourcing required before installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style screw-in replacement element for residential and light commercial electric storage water heaters requiring a 240-volt, 3000-watt, 12-inch element with screw-in mounting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified water heater service technician in accordance with local plumbing codes. Before service, shut off the electrical supply at the breaker and close the cold-water inlet valve, then drain the tank sufficiently to expose the element port. Use an element wrench for removal and installation — do not use pliers or adjustable wrenches, which can damage the hex fitting. Never energize the element while the tank is empty, as dry-firing will immediately destroy the element.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWattage\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3000 watts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVoltage\u003c\/strong\u003e: 240 volts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eElement Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSheath Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Incoloy nickel alloy\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Screw-in\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGasket Included\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: A.O.
