WATER HEATERS

RHEEM ® -RUUD ® GAS AND ELECTRIC PRODUCTS:

THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS GOOD ENOUGH

Rheem-Ruud has long been committed to quality. And though we make sure our customers are satisfied, we never are. We are committed to developing ways to make our products more energy-efficient, durable, and above all, easy to install and maintain.

Just like the Universal gas models, Rheem ® -Ruud ® commercial electric water heaters are designed to meet your needs - whether a new installation or a replacement - with special features to maximize efficiency.

SPOTLIGHTING THE DIFFERENCE

You can put away your amp meters, because with our exclusive System Sentinel TM diagnostics, we've taken the guesswork out of troubleshooting. It's simple: Glowing LED lights verify element operation and location. When it comes to easy maintenance, System Sentinel makes the difference, allowing you to make more efficient use of your time.

A LIFEGUARD TM IN THE WATER MEANS MAXIMUM RECOVERY

Rheem ® -Ruud ® LIFEGUARD heating elements are built to deliver long-lasting performance. A stainless steel sheath surrounds a Nichrome wire filament to resist water chemical corrosion and burnout, even when exposed to air or sediment. And to maximize heating efficiency, LIFEGUARD's separate screw-in elements operate with 98 percent efficiency.

THE IDEA IS TO KEEP IN THE HEAT

You'll also find our electric models are built with unique features to maximize heat retention. Our long-life tank is surrounded by three inches of rigid polyurethane foam. And because of the compact layout of our heating elements, 85 percent of the tank's surface area is foam insulated. The result? Total heat loss for a 48-hour standby period is less than the energy used by a 100-watt light bulb for the same length of time.
