Takagi and A.O. Smith are not entirely the same corporate entity, but they operate through a deep, established strategic partnership. Takagi originated as a historic Japanese manufacturer specializing in tankless gas water heaters since 1952. In 2010, Takagi formed a major North American joint venture and partnership with the A.O. Smith Corporation, the largest water heating manufacturer in North America. Through this collaboration, A.O. Smith manages Takagi's North American distribution, engineering integration, technical support, and supply chain networks.
