It delivers up to 140,000 BTU\/h of heating capacity with a flow rate of 6.6 gallons per minute, making it suitable for high-demand hot water systems. The unit operates with a direct or power vent configuration and carries an energy factor of 0.81. It is a non-condensing design, meaning it exhausts higher-temperature flue gases and requires appropriate venting materials rated for that duty. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians are the primary installers for this type of equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tankless water heater is built for outdoor installation, eliminating the need for indoor venting runs in many retrofit or new-construction scenarios. At 6.6 GPM and 140,000 BTU\/h, it is sized to handle simultaneous fixture demand in light commercial settings or larger residential systems. Its dual commercial and residential listing makes it a versatile option where hot water load calculations call for on-demand, non-storage heating. The direct or power vent setup allows flexibility in exhaust routing depending on the job site layout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e140,000 BTU\/h natural gas input for high-demand hot water delivery\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6.6 GPM flow rate supports simultaneous multi-fixture draw\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOutdoor-rated enclosure eliminates interior venting requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNon-condensing design with direct or power vent exhaust options\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEnergy factor of 0.81 for efficient fuel utilization\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eListed for both commercial and residential installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style outdoor natural gas tankless water heater suitable for commercial and residential on-demand hot water systems requiring a non-condensing, power vent or direct vent configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation must be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified gas technician in accordance with local mechanical codes and the manufacturer instructions. Shut off the gas supply and water supply completely before beginning any connection work. The power vent configuration requires a dedicated electrical supply for the blower motor, so verify circuit requirements before rough-in. Non-condensing exhaust venting must use materials rated for high-temperature flue gas — consult local codes and the installation manual for approved vent pipe specifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFuel Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Natural Gas\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeating Capacity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 140,000 BTU\/h\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlow Rate\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.6 gallons per minute\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVent Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Direct Vent \/ Power Vent\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation Location\u003c\/strong\u003e: Outdoor\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCondensing\u003c\/strong\u003e: Non-Condensing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnergy Factor\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.81\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Commercial \/ Residential\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: AO Smith\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 100227698\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"AO SMITH","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51524489543986,"sku":"ATO-110U","price":837.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d630d1812f2f5136828e954764dbcae2.jpg?v=1785449949","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/ao-smith-100227698-tankless-water-heater-140000-btu-h","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
