Description
The Lochinvar & A.O. Smith 100111369 Control Valve-Water Heater is a vital component in the water heater systems. Through a direct contact with water, passing through a heating element, this valve ensures that the water temperature is regulated by controlling the water flow.The temperature sensor that continuously checks the water’s temperature and modifies the flow is the basis of its operation. It is used with many currents of Lochinvar and A.O. Smith water heaters and is typically installed in water supply line going to the heat exchanger. Through proper regulation of water flow, the valve ensures that there is the right temperature, enhances energy conservation and avoids the system overheating or underheating.
