Why tank less
gas wate r heaters
by Rhee m?

CONTINUOUSHOT WATER…

when you need it. It’s that simple.

The popularity of oversizetubs isgrowing, and
so is the demandfor largevolumes oflow-cost
hot water. The Rheem Tankless provides a
compact solution for acontinuous supplyof
energy-efficient hot water that won’t run out.

ENERGY-EFFICIENT DESIGN…

low-cost operation.

Why keep 40-50 gallonsof waterhot whenyou
don’t need it? It’s expensive to continue to heat
and re-heat water whenyou’re nothome ornot
using it. Rheem’s tankless design offers
convenience without the highcost ofkeeping
water hot.

COMPACTSIZE…

good things do come in small packages.

RheemTankless is about one third the sizeof a
conventionalwater heater.Sophisticated
technologyhas reduced the sizeand increased
the featuresand benefits. A digitaldisplay makes
settinga precisewater temperature,or monitoring
the unit’sstatus, a snap! Its compact sizewill leave
room fora watersoftener or extra storage.

PRECISETEMPERATURECONTROL

Many user and installer-friendly features make
the Rheem Tankless the easiest tankless water
heater to own. Thedigital displaymakes it
simple to set thewater temperature. Simply
set the desired temperatureand walkaway.
Because the water isheated onlywhen itis
needed, the outgoing watertemperature
remains constant.

SELF-DIAGNOSTIC

Should maintenance be required,the unit’s
self-diagnostic system will displaya
maintenance code, which makes
troubleshooting quick, accurate and
less expensive.

EZ-LINK™CABLE

EZ-Link cable connects twotankless units
to operate as one– nowavailable forhigh
demand applications.
