Product Description

The A.O. SMITH 100109482 is a conversion kit designed for PCE and PCV series electric water heaters. It enables a reconfiguration of the heating element setup to a single-element, 2000-watt, 240-volt configuration. This kit is installed by licensed plumbers and water heater service technicians performing system conversions or demand-based efficiency adjustments. The 2000W rating at 240 volts draws approximately 8.3 amps, making it compatible with standard residential branch circuit requirements.

Technicians working on light-commercial or residential storage tank water heaters will use this kit when a single-element configuration is required per the job specification or unit model designation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified water heater technician in accordance with local plumbing codes and the manufacturer service documentation.
