Fast Hot‑Water Recovery For Peak Demand
With a 199K BTU input and up to ~193 gallons per hour at a 100°F rise, the SBD‑100‑199‑NES keeps kitchens, locker rooms, and multi‑unit facilities supplied through rush periods. It’s a proven way to cut downtime and customer wait times while maintaining consistent temperatures.
Self‑Cleaning Tank That Lowers Maintenance
State’s Hydro Cannon (Eliminator) self‑cleaning system sweeps sediment off the bottom of the tank and keeps particulates in suspension so they’re flushed out on normal draws. By reducing scale build‑up, it helps maintain rated efficiency, extend tank life, and limit unexpected service calls.
Installer‑Friendly Flexibility
Choose the connection layout that fits your mechanical room: front, back, or top hot and cold water connections. A low‑profile draft diverter, compact 30.25" diameter, and automatic flue damper (199K model) simplify replacements and help the unit fit where older heaters sat.
Built For Longevity & Safety
A PERMAGLAS Ultra Coat glass‑lined tank and multiple CoreGard anode rods defend against corrosion, while a factory‑installed, CSA‑certified/ASME‑rated T&P valve and a manual‑reset gas shut‑off provide added protection. Maximum working pressure is 160 psi for robust, commercial‑grade reliability.
Energy‑Saving Electronic Ignition
Intermittent electronic ignition eliminates the standing pilot to save fuel and provides rapid flame‑failure response. Paired with an 80% thermal efficiency rating and the automatic flue damper, it’s a solid balance of performance and operating cost for high‑demand sites.
Additional features contractors appreciate
Factory‑installed T&P relief valve, NSF 5 sanitation compliance for 180°F water, 120–180°F adjustable thermostat, handhole cleanout, plug kits for unused connections, optional manifold kits for multi‑heater banks, and available power‑vent kits on this size range make the Sandblaster SBD‑100‑199‑NES a dependable, easy‑to‑service workhorse for commercial hot‑water systems.
