1. Superior Efficiency That Saves You Thousands
The Voltex AL isn’t just efficient—it’s 4X more efficient than a standard electric water heater of similar capacity. With an ENERGY STAR certification and an impressive Uniform Energy Factor (UEF) of 3.88, this system delivers serious savings:
Save up to $600 per year on energy costs compared to traditional electric water heaters. Over 10 years, that's $6,000 in savings, freeing up funds for family vacations, new appliances, or those weekly Trader Joe’s trips.
With a 65-gallon first-hour rating, it ensures plenty of hot water for your family’s busy mornings, from showers to laundry to dishwashing.
2. Smart Connectivity for Effortless Control
Life with kids is busy, and the last thing you need is to worry about your water heater. The Voltex AL offers iCOMM™ Smart Connectivity, allowing you to monitor and control your water heater from anywhere through the A. O. Smith app. Receive alerts and notifications about performance, maintenance needs, or potential issues right on your phone. Vacation Mode lets you lower energy consumption while you're away, ensuring you don’t pay for hot water you’re not using.
The user-friendly electronic interface offers easy temperature control, operating mode selection, and system diagnostics, making it simple to customize settings to your family’s needs.
3. Peace of Mind with Leak Protection Technology
Homeownership comes with its share of worries, but with the Voltex AL, you can breathe easy. This water heater is equipped with advanced leak protection features, including:
Leak detection sensors that alert you immediately if an issue arises.
An optional automatic shut-off valve that can stop water flow in case of a leak, preventing costly water damage.
A smart anode and Blue Diamond® glass lining that protect the tank from corrosion, ensuring long-lasting performance.
4. Designed for Modern Homes
The Voltex AL’s design is as thoughtful as it is efficient:
Top and front water connections provide flexible installation options, accommodating various plumbing configurations.
Zero clearance requirements mean it can fit seamlessly into tight spaces like utility closets or garages.
At just 45 decibels, it operates quietly—perfect for homes with open floor plans where noise matters.
The durable stainless steel CoreGard™ anode rod and DynaClean® automatic sediment-cleaning system ensure optimal tank protection and minimal maintenance.
5. Maximizing Your Investment
While the Voltex AL is a premium appliance, it offers tremendous long-term value.
Many local utility companies offer rebates for energy-efficient upgrades—up to $850 may be available in your area. Check with A. O. Smith’s rebate finder to see what you qualify for.
Backed by a 10-year limited warranty on the tank and parts, the Voltex AL is built to last, providing you with a decade of worry-free performance.

The Best Ways to Keep a Plumber Away – Prevent Costly Repairs!
From preventing leaks to providing cost-effective solutions, local plumbers ensure that your home remains comfortable and functional.
If you’re dealing with frustratingly low water pressure in your home, you’re not alone. Many homeowners in SouthBay , Cerritos, and surrounding areas experience water pressure issues that make everyday tasks like showering, dishwashing, and lawn watering a hassle. At Soo Hipp Plumbing, we specialize in diagnosing and resolving low water pressure problems to ensure your home’s plumbing system works efficiently. Let’s dive into the common causes of low water pressure and how you can fix them. Common Causes of Low Water Pressure 1. Pipe Leaks or Corrosion Over time, pipes can corrode, crack, or develop leaks, reducing the flow of water to your fixtures. Even small leaks can significantly impact water pressure. A professional plumbing inspection can identify hidden leaks and determine if repiping is necessary. 2. Mineral Buildup in Pipes Hard water is common in Southern California, leading to mineral and sediment buildup inside your pipes. This buildup restricts water flow, causing a noticeable drop in pressure. Flushing your pipes and installing a water conditioning system can help. 3. Water Pressure Regulator Malfunction Many homes have a water pressure regulator that controls the flow of water. If this device fails, it can lead to water pressure that is too high or too low. Replacing or adjusting the regulator can restore proper pressure levels. 4. Municipal Water Supply Issues Your home's water pressure is directly affected by the city’s water supply. If there’s ongoing maintenance, a broken main, or an issue with the municipal system, it can cause a sudden drop in water pressure. Checking with your local water provider can help determine if the issue is external. 5. Clogged or Faulty Fixtures If low water pressure is only affecting certain faucets or showerheads, mineral deposits may be clogging the aerators. Cleaning or replacing these fixtures is an easy fix that can restore proper water flow. 6. Shared Plumbing Lines If you live in an older neighborhood, your home may share water lines with nearby properties. Increased demand during peak hours can reduce water pressure. A professional plumber can assess whether installing a dedicated water line or a pressure booster is necessary. How to Prevent Low Water Pressure Issues Schedule regular plumbing inspections to catch issues before they worsen. Install a water filtration or conditioning system to prevent mineral buildup. Check and maintain your water pressure regulator to ensure it’s functioning properly. Upgrade old pipes if your home has aging plumbing that restricts water flow. Fix leaks immediately to prevent long-term damage and pressure loss. Free In-Person Consultation – tel:(310) 775-2316 tel:(310) 775-2316 Soo Hipp Plumbing Today! Call Soo Hipp Plumbing Today!
