StateWater Heaters' Sandblaster is the original Self Cleaning commercial gas water heater, with a proven design that automatically reduces sediment buildup, the number one threat to any water heater’s life expectancy and energy efficiency.

The new computer designed Hydro Cannon self cleaning device injects cold water into the tank under pressure and then uses a venturi action to create self cleaning turbulence. Self Cleaning action keeps sediment in suspension, and keeps it moving, so it does not get a chance to settle down. Sediment that would otherwise build up in the tank is harmlessly carried out when hot water is drawn. With reduced sediment buildup, Sandblaster commercial water heaters retain their rated efficiency longer, last longer, and help keep water heating costs down!
