Description

This bottom-entry water heater from Giant® features Ecopeak® technology and is equipped with three elements of various wattages. Its bottom water entry offers 10% more ready-to-use hot water. Compared to a traditional two-element water heater, the three-element water heater represents a lower demand distributed more evenly throughout the day.

 

The water entry and outlet are equipped with factory-installed heat traps to minimize heat loss. The interior of the tank is coated with a zircon-enhanced blue cobalt glass for maximum corrosion resistance, a feature that is unique to Giant.


Why you'll love this product


Automatic temperature control
Adjustable thermostats will provide years of reliable, trouble-free service at the desired water temperature. A safety cut-off is provided for abnormal conditions.

 

Insulation
A thick, uniform blanket of eco-friendly insulation keeps your water hotter for longer periods, reduces stand-by losses, and lowers energy costs. Contains no HCFCs (hydrochlorofluorocarbons), CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons), HFCs (hydrofluorocarbons) nor VOCs (volatile organic compounds).

 

Electric elements
All models are equipped with CSA-approved bolt-on immersion elements made by Giant. These elements can be easily replaced with no special tools, resulting in low maintenance costs.

 

Glass-lined inner tank
A uniquely formulated blue cobalt glass enriched with zircon is fused to specially treated steel at 1,600°F (871°C), creating a coating that offers maximum protection against corrosion for many years. The tank is certified at a test pressure of 300 PSI (2,068 kPa) and a working pressure of 150 PSI (1,035 kPa).

 

High quality magnesium anode
Provides excellent protection against the corrosive effects of water and extends the life of the tank.

 

Drain valve
Tamper-resistant, one-piece drain valve for easy drainage.

 

Overflow system
A 90° elbow overflow tube is supplied with each residential electric water heater.

 

Factory-installed temperature & pressure-relief valve
Protects the tank from the damaging effects of excessive temperature and pressure.

 

Factory-installed 3/4” npt di-electric nipples
Extend the life of the water heater by providing excellent corrosion protection.

 

Factory-installed heat traps
Helps reduce the migration of hot water, thus limiting heat loss escaping through inlet and outlet fittings.

Switch to an electric heat pump

Electric heat pumps offer an efficient way to reduce energy bills and carbon footprint by transferring heat rather than generating it. They provide both heating and cooling, using less energy than traditional systems. Grants and rebates make them a cost-effective, eco-friendly investment.

Learn more about heat pumps

What types of heat pumps do you offer?

1Click specializes in cold-climate air-source heat pumps that have been tested and proven to be reliable, even in our cold Canadian winters. We offer both central ducted heat pump systems and ductless mini-split heat pumps. Our mini-split heat pumps are available in single-zone or multi-zone configurations to suit your needs.

What is the difference between a single-zone and multi-zone heat pump?

Single-zone mini-split heat pumps have one indoor air distribution unit, generally called a “head”, that attaches to a single outdoor unit which looks similar to a standard air conditioner. Multi-zone mini-split heat pumps have multiple indoor units or heads that attach to a single outdoor unit. Choosing between the two depends on your home. Single-zone units are designed for keeping a small space or a specific room at a single temperature. Multi-zone units can serve more than one area independently and at different temperatures, making them flexible whole-home solutions.

Are electric water heaters better than gas?

There are a few reasons why switching to an electric water heater is better than gas. Gas water heaters are typically more expensive than electric ones, use more energy, and don’t last as long. In comparison, electric water heaters are generally cheaper, use less energy, and last longer. Win-win-win! Thought natural gas was the cheapest fuel source? Think again.
