Authorized AO Smith install & service

ENERGY STAR Partner of the Year. ProLine, ProLine Master, ProLine XE.

A.O. Smith manufactures some of the most efficient and longest-lasting residential tanks on the market, with the ENERGY STAR Partner of the Year award six years running. Their ProLine residential lineup runs from the standard ProLine through the commercial-grade ProLine Master and the premium high-efficiency ProLine XE (which houses the heat-pump and tankless models). Titan installs and services every A.O. Smith residential line across Tampa Bay.

  • ProLine, ProLine Master, and ProLine XE residential tiers
  • Gas tank, electric tank, gas tankless, and Voltex hybrid heat pump models
  • ENERGY STAR Partner of the Year, six consecutive years
  • Commercial-grade components on ProLine Master (longer warranty, sturdier build)
  • High-efficiency heat-pump and tankless options under ProLine XE

How to choose between ProLine, Master, and XE

ProLine is the workhorse tier, gas or electric, sized 30 to 75 gallons, the right pick for a straightforward replacement on a budget. ProLine Master steps up to commercial-grade dip tubes, anode rods, and gas valves with a longer warranty term, the right choice for hard-water households (which is most of Tampa Bay) and for owners who want the unit to outlast the 8-to-10-year average. ProLine XE houses the high-efficiency lineup, Voltex hybrid heat pump, tankless, and high-recovery condensing gas, for homeowners chasing the lowest operating cost or qualifying for utility rebates.

Voltex hybrid heat pump, the case for it in Tampa

The Voltex pulls heat from the surrounding air to heat water, runs roughly 4x more efficient than a standard electric tank, and qualifies for ENERGY STAR rebates from Duke Energy and TECO in many Tampa Bay zips. Tampa's warm garage temperatures are ideal for heat-pump operation year-round. The trade-off is install location (it needs roughly 700 cubic feet of airspace and ducting if the garage is too tight), which we evaluate on the quote.

Why ENERGY STAR matters for a Tampa household

A typical Tampa household spends 18 to 25% of its electric bill on hot water. An ENERGY STAR-certified A.O. Smith unit cuts that materially over a 10-to-12-year tank life, usually paying back the price difference within 4 years. The Partner-of-the-Year designation means A.O. Smith's entire residential lineup is benchmarked against the latest UEF standards, not just one halo model.

Tampa hard-water service and warranty

Annual flushing keeps the tank free of the calcium and magnesium scale that kills early. Anode-rod inspection at year 5 catches corrosion before it eats the tank wall. We do both on a plan, log the visit (so the warranty stays in force), and if the unit ever needs warranty service we coordinate the replacement directly with A.O. Smith so you don't spend a weekend on hold.
