Ao Smith del-30 Commercial Electric Water Heater 33 Gal 6kw

Product Description

The AO SMITH del-30 is a light-duty commercial electric water heater in the DEL lowboy series, designed for installations where vertical clearance is limited. Rated at 6 kilowatts (kW) and 240 volts (V) on a three-phase electrical supply, this unit holds 33 gallons and supports non-simultaneous and single-element operation at up to 6 kW input. It is built to the same construction standards as AO SMITH gas commercial models and is intended for plumbing system integration in light commercial settings. Licensed plumbers and commercial HVAC-plumbing contractors are the primary installers.

The del-30 is suited for light commercial applications where a compact, floor-mounted lowboy profile is required. Typical installation scenarios include small commercial facilities, utility rooms, and equipment closets where ceiling height limits the use of a standard upright water heater. The DEL series spans tank capacities from 6 through 119 gallons, giving contractors flexibility across a range of demand loads within the same product family.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Disconnect and lock out all electrical power to the circuit before beginning installation or service. A licensed electrician should verify that the existing three-phase 240V service and branch circuit wiring meet the unit's electrical requirements before energizing. Allow the tank to fill completely with water before applying power to the heating elements to prevent dry-fire damage.
