    Q:

    Since this has an R rating of 8 I will need to add a blanket to it to bring it up to code of R-12. Is there a AO Smith blanket for this?

      A.O. Smith does not offer insulation blankets for their water heaters. If you install a blanket, please take the proper precautions and avoid covering any valves or warning labels.

      A:

      It is not convertible. You would need to install a model GPVH-40-LP water heater.

      A:

      The life expectancy depends on a number of things, included usage, water conditions, maintenance (such as draining and flushing the water heater), inspecting and replacing the anode as needed, water pressure, and thermal expansion.
