Common Questions

Is the 100109636 compatible with 240V systems?
No, this element is rated specifically for 208V 6000W. Installing it in a 240V system will result in higher amperage draw and premature failure or damage to the electrical circuit.

Does this element include the mounting gasket?
Contractors should verify the current inventory status, as these are typically sold with the required 1-inch NPSM gasket for a leak-free seal.

Can I use this in a residential water heater?
While the threads may match, residential tanks often lack the depth for a 10.75-inch immersion element and the electrical infrastructure for a 6000W draw. Always verify the tank depth and circuit breaker size before installation.
