help A. O. Smith Elegance Prime Vertical FAQ
What does the vertical label mean on the A. O. Smith Elegance Prime?
It means the storage tank is designed to be mounted upright on a wall. Installing a vertical model in another orientation can affect heating, plumbing connections, and safety, so its installation manual should be followed.
Does the Elegance Prime Vertical provide instant hot water?
No, it is a storage water heater that heats and retains a tank of water. Unlike an instantaneous geyser, it needs time to reheat after a large portion of the stored hot water has been used.
How do I choose the right Elegance Prime tank capacity?
Capacity should match household size, bathing habits, and the number of outlets served. A smaller tank can suit a single user, while consecutive showers generally require more stored water or recovery time.
Does the A. O. Smith Elegance Prime need professional installation?
Professional installation is advisable because the unit combines mains electricity, pressurized plumbing, wall mounting, and a safety valve. The installer should also verify earthing, water pressure, and the wall's ability to support the filled tank.
