American Water 100269192 Electric Water Heater 50 Gal 4500W

Product Description

The AMERICAN WATER 100269192 is a 50-gallon short electric water heater rated at 4500 watts and 240 volts, single phase. It is designed for residential and light commercial potable hot water supply systems where vertical installation height is limited. The short-profile tank measures 23 inches in diameter and 49.25 inches in height, making it a practical fit for utility rooms, closets, and mechanical spaces with low overhead clearance. Licensed plumbers and HVAC service technicians install this unit as a primary water heating source in applications where a standard-height tank will not fit.

This unit is suited for residential installations requiring a compact footprint without sacrificing storage capacity. The 50-gallon tank capacity supports typical whole-home demand in small to medium residences. The 240-volt, single-phase electrical supply requirement is standard in residential construction, and the 4500-watt element rating delivers reliable recovery performance for everyday domestic hot water loads.
