## Why A.O. Smith for commercial buildings

A.O. Smith has manufactured commercial water heaters for roughly a century, and its commercial catalogue covers nearly every load: standard and high-recovery gas storage units, condensing high-efficiency models, heavy-duty electric heaters, tankless systems, heat-pump units and large storage tanks. That breadth is why we reach for it so often: a restaurant, a hotel and a hospital can each get a unit designed for their demand from one manufacturer.

    I called Progressive because of storm/tree damage, which took out both my power and caused my water main to burst. Progressive could do both. From my initial call to the arrival of the electrician and plumber, I couldn’t have been more pleased. … I would use them again and highly recommend them for your ‘mechanical’ needs.

    Everything was taken care of today. They were just amazing. They got everything done real quick, no mess, real polite. They were just awesome. … The best news we’ve had since we’ve moved into this house.

    We really appreciate the extra time, phone calls to the supplier, and careful reading of the instructions to do the job right. Gilbert expressed his philosophy as ‘doing the job the way he would want it done in his own home.’ Once again, we are most pleased with the professional and courteous service your company provides.
