Are Renaults expensive to repair?

Written by Admin | Last Updated: July 2026

No, Rheem Manufacturing Company and A. O. Smith Corporation are completely separate, fiercely competitive independent manufacturing corporations. Both are dominant American giants in the residential and commercial water heating and HVAC industries, but they operate with entirely distinct corporate structures, management teams, and manufacturing facilities. While each company owns various subsidiary brands (such as Ruud for Rheem, or State and American for A. O. Smith), they have zero corporate affiliation with one another.
