A. O. Smith Corporation is an American manufacturer of Water Heaters. This new water heater is a perfect package. Its 15-liter capacity provides enough hot water for a small family. The inner tank is made of advanced-level materials.
Glass coated heating element is as good as the next best water heater. The pressure bar is eight, so no problem there. And with its temperature controlling knob, use this water heater with ease.

Features
Anode Rod
This AO Smith Water heater comes with an Anode Rod, which has a stainless steel core and is designed to prevent corrosion. It fights the corrosive elements increasing the water heater’s life, making it longer than usual.
Temperature Control Knob
This is the most useful feature of any water heaters. It comes with a knob that will let you adjust the temperature from 25-75 degrees Celsius of the water. So you can set the temperature as per your needs.
Capacity
15 liter of the capacity of a water heater is pretty decent, I think. A family of four can bathe with this much amount of hot water easily. It’s a great product for family use. And for the increased capacity, you don’t have to heat it repeatedly.
What Do We like
Inner Tank
The inner tank of this AO Smith water heater is made of Blue Diamond technology. It is a very advanced technology that has been used in this water heater to increase its longevity. The Blue Diamond lined glass tank is what makes this water heater unique than the others.
Thermal Cutout
It comes with the pre-set thermal cut out technology as well. If the temperature of water exceeds the limit, the thermal cut-outs will cut off the power preventing any injuries. It ensures your safety.
8 Bar Pressure
This water heater is the ideal choice for those people who live in high rise buildings. The water pressure is calculated in terms of “Bar,” and this one is rated as 8 Bar Pressure. So it means its best of the best when it comes to this aspect. No more lack of pressure of water.
Glass Coated Heating Element
AO Smith Glass coated heating elements mainly helps extend the life of the water heater. The 2000 watt heating element takes about 15 minutes to heat the water properly. It’s durable and lasts longer. Pretty much what everyone wants.
What We Don’t Like
No accessories
You need to buy the connecting pipes of this water heater. They don’t come with it. At this price range, I think AO Smith could’ve provided INR 600-700 worth of accessories.
Conclusion
This water heater has seven years of warranty on the inner tank and three years of warranty on the heating element. The outer body is made of solid stainless steel.
It is rustproof and durable, as well. The inner tank is made of advanced technology. This is what seems to be a great product.
