State Water Heater
State water heaters are made by State Industries. State Industries’ headquarters are located in Ashland, Tennessee. They make a number of water heaters which include residential and commercial water heaters that are powered by electricity, gas, or oil. They also produce tankless water heaters for residential use. Some of the other products they produce include storage tanks, expansion tanks, and hot water heating accessories. Some of the unique features that a State water heater have include:
• Energy saving 2” thick foam insulation to protect against radiant heat loss (3” thick on electric models)
• Heavy duty magnesium anode rods to protect glass lined tank from rust and corrosion
• Eco-friendly green choice gas burner (standard on gas water heaters) to reduce NOx emissions by 33%
• Factory installed temperature and pressure valves
• Built in heat traps
• Self-cleaning turbo coil dip tube to help prolong tank life and maintain high energy efficiency
Reviews from homeowners on State water heaters are mixed. Some have had them for twenty years and never had any problems with them. Others have had problems with them from the get go. Due to the mixed nature of the reviews, we cannot recommend State water heaters; although, they do have a 10-year warranty on most (if not all) of there water heaters. The warranty might not include any service that needs to be done on the heater.
In order to asses whether or not a State water heater is right for you, we suggest that you visit their website, read reviews, and talk to a professional plumber before making your decision.
