*Based on simultaneous showers using 2.5 gallons per minute. Flow rates vary depending on temperature of cold water supply. Estimated energy cost based on a national average fuel cost of $1.09/therm for natural gas and $2.41/gallon for LP. Energy factor determined by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) test procedures. All models are available in Natural Gas and Propane (LP). For Propane replace the N with P when ordering. SCAQMD 1146.2 compliant. Factory set maximum temperature is 120° F. See Use and Care Manual for setting. Consult factory for information on sizing the application. Add a "C" to the model number when ordering Canadian models. Outdoor models are only for seasonal use in Canada. Please contact Rheem Canada Ltd. for details. Vent Termination Kits are required for Direct Vent models. Contact your distributor for details. Proper gas pressure must be ensured to supply tankless gas water heaters – up to 199,900 Btu/h for RTGH-95 models, up to 180,000 Btu/h for RTGH-90 models, up to 157,000 Btu/h for RTGH-84 models.
