Ao Smith 100109161 Conversion Kit 3 Elements 3000W 208V

Product Description

The AO SMITH 100109161 is a three-element conversion kit designed to convert compatible electric water heaters to a 3000-watt, 208-volt configuration using Apcom components. This kit provides all three heating elements needed for a complete conversion in a single package, simplifying the parts procurement process for service technicians. It is intended for use in electric water heater systems where a lower-voltage, lower-wattage element setup is required. Licensed plumbers and water heater service technicians are the primary installers for this type of conversion work.

This conversion kit is suited for residential and light commercial electric water heater applications where a 208-volt power supply is present rather than a standard 240-volt supply. Common scenarios include multi-family housing, older commercial buildings, and facilities wired with 208-volt three-phase electrical distribution. The Apcom-sourced elements included in this kit meet the wattage and voltage requirements for these installations.

Key Features

• Includes three heating elements for a complete conversion in one kit
• Rated at 3000 watts per element at 208 volts
• Apcom components used for heating element compatibility
• Designed for 208-volt electrical supply applications
• Simplifies service calls by bundling all required elements together

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style conversion kit for AO SMITH electric water heaters requiring a 3000-watt, 208-volt three-element configuration. Consult the water heater model documentation to confirm this kit matches the required element count, wattage, and voltage before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified water heater technician in accordance with applicable local codes. Before beginning, shut off the electrical supply to the water heater at the breaker and close the cold water supply valve. Drain the tank to the appropriate level before removing existing elements to avoid water damage. Do not energize the elements until the tank is fully refilled to prevent dry-fire damage.
