Ao Smith 100109499 Conversion Kit 2000W 208V Pce Pcv

Product Description

The AO SMITH 100109499 is a conversion kit designed for PCE and PCV series electric water heaters equipped with two heating elements. This kit allows field conversion of compatible water heater units to operate at 2000 watts and 208 volts, making it suited for commercial or light-commercial installations where 208-volt power distribution is standard. Licensed plumbers and water heater service technicians typically source this kit when a unit must be reconfigured to match available electrical supply. The two-element configuration supports both upper and lower element positions in a standard tank-style water heater.

This conversion kit applies to PCE and PCV series electric water heaters requiring a 208-volt, 2000-watt element configuration. It is commonly used in multi-unit residential buildings, small commercial facilities, or any installation site where the electrical service provides 208 volts rather than the more common 240-volt residential supply. The two-element design supports standard tandem heating operation within the water heater tank.
