Atmospheric Vent With Powered Damper

Gas Water Heaters

This atmospheric vent water heater uses its flue damper to increase efficiency by automatically opening and closing the vent to reduce heat loss in standby mode. Environmentally-friendly insulation and factory-installed heat trap nipples also reduce heat loss for maximum energy savings. This tank also includes a heavy-duty anode rod.

Note, power is required for this model.
