Key components typically found in an electric water heater include:

Tank: The insulated storage tank where hot water is stored.
Upper Thermostat: Controls the upper heating element.
Lower Thermostat: Controls the lower heating element.
Upper Heating Element: Heats the water in the top of the tank.
Lower Heating Element: Heats the water in the bottom of the tank.
Temperature and Pressure Relief Valve (T&P Valve): Releases excess pressure and prevents the tank from overheating.
Drain Valve: Allows for draining the tank for maintenance or flushing.
Cold Water Inlet: Where cold water enters the tank.
Hot Water Outlet: Where hot water exits the tank.
Electrical Connections: Connect the water heater to the power supply.

Important Note:

Always refer to the specific owner's manual for your American Standard water heater model for accurate information and diagrams.
Consult with a qualified professional for installation, maintenance, or any repairs.

Key Components: Gas Water Heater

Tank: Stores heated water.
Cold Water Inlet: Where cold water enters the tank.
Dip Tube: Guides cold water to the bottom of the tank for efficient heating.
Hot Water Outlet: Where hot water exits the tank.
Burner: Ignites gas to heat the water.
Flue: Vents combustion gases to the outside.
Thermostat: Controls water temperature.
Temperature and Pressure Relief Valve (T&P Valve): Releases pressure if it gets too high.
Drain Valve: Allows for draining the tank for maintenance.
Anode Rod: Helps prevent corrosion inside the tank.

How it Works:

Cold water enters: Cold water enters the tank through the cold water inlet and flows down the dip tube to the bottom of the tank.
Gas ignition: The thermostat senses the water temperature and signals the gas valve to open. Gas flows to the burner and ignites.
Water heating: The burner heats the water at the bottom of the tank.
Hot water rises: As the water heats, it rises to the top of the tank, displacing the cooler water.
Hot water delivery: When a hot water faucet is opened, hot water flows out of the tank and into the plumbing system.
Temperature control: The thermostat monitors the water temperature and turns the gas valve off when the desired temperature is reached.
