Rheem Gas Hot Water Supply Heaters warranty Reliability, Efficiency, Flexibility

Three Important Reasons to Choose Hot Water Supply Heaters from Rheem-Ruud Commercial Water Heaters

Reliability

•Like all of our water heating products, Rheem-Ruud hot water supply heaters are crafted to exacting stan- dards. Each detail of design, engi- neering and construction must meet our criteria for performance and dura- bility.

•The heat exchanger (1), for example, is constructed of 100% copper. High Velocity hydraulics (2) virtually elimi- nates problems of scaling and corro- sion within its waterways. The cast iron headers (3) are glass-lined to assure that the entire heat exchanger assembly is resistant to corrosion.

•Every Rheem-Ruud hot water supply heater features titanium stainless steel burners (4). They operate quiet- ly, will not clog or corrode, and have far greater temperature resistance than cast iron. The controls (5) are factory adjusted and completely enclosed for reliable, automatic operation.

•The outer jacket (6) is galvanized and enamel baked for lasting aesthetics.

Efficiency

• Today’s demands for volume hot water

must be met economically, so we’ve

attempted to use every fuel saving

technique conceivable. The resulting

82% efficiency will save you money in

fuel costs for years to come.

• The integral finned copper tubing

(7) in the heat exchanger provides

nine times more heat transfer area

than smooth tubing. Efficiency is

boosted even further by V-baffles (8),

which redirect the heat across the

finned tubing. The insulated combus-

tion chamber (9) features corner

sealed and interlocking refractory

panels to minimize chamber radiation

losses.

• Economy is further enhanced with a

special energy saving pump control.

This automatic control continues to

pump operation until all usable heat

has been absorbed from the combus-

tion chamber and stored in the tank.

• Access to water heater for inspection

is simple. All Rheem-Ruud hot water

supply heaters feature a heat

exchanger inspection panel (10)

and a removable door to access the

slide out burner drawer (11).

•You’ll find that Rheem-Ruud hot water supply heaters are perfectly suited for many commercial, industri- al and special application needs requiring economical, reliable sup- plies of hot water. The optional facto- ry supplied pump is designed to handle nearly all water conditions

•Our standard sized water heaters – nine models ranging from 136,000 to 825,000 BTU – are designed for hot water supply in commercial applica- tions. Each model is available for indoor and outdoor installation. The outdoor models feature a special draft system which is wind, rain and debris-proof.

•Our large sized water heaters – seven indoor and seven outdoor models ranging from 926,000 to 1,825,600 BTU – meet the heavier demand of larger multi-family hous- ing and commercial applications. They are ideal for use as summer replacement water heaters, eliminat- ing the need to fire large central heating water heaters merely to sup- ply domestic hot water.

•All of these Rheem-Ruud hot water supply heaters are compact and convenient; they save space, fuel and installation cost.
