A. O. Smith’s Energy-Efficient Water Heaters for Environmentally Friendly Installations

About LEED

The Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Green Building Rating Systemis the nationally accepted benchmark for the design, construction and operation of high-performance energy-efficient buildings. LEED provides building owners and operators with the tools they need to have an immediate and measurable impact on the energy efficiency of their buildings. The U.S. Green Building council oversees and manages the LEED program.

There are no “LEED-certified” products. However, A. O. Smith water heaters—because of their energy-efficient technologies—can contribute to LEED certification of new residential construction projects.

LEED Categories for Rating Points

LEED has separate rating systems for new commercial construction, commercial interiors, commercial core and shell, existing commercial buildings and new residential

home construction.

For each rating system, LEED issues credits or points in six categories:

Sustainable Sites

Water Efficiency

Energy and Atmosphere

Materials and Resources

Indoor Environmental Quality

Innovation and Design

LEED certification provides independent, third-party verification that a building project meets the highest energy-efficient building and performance measures.

Consult your local LEED professional for additional information.
