Water Heaters
The water heater is supplied with 3/8" brass compression fittings that are compatible with either copper or plastic pipes. Make sure
these fittings are used for this installation. Contact your Rheem representative for further information.
NEVER SUBSTITUTE THREADED PIPE FITTINGS USING PIPE DOPE OR TEFLON TAPE AND NEVER SOLDER
ANY PIPE CONNECTIONS WHILE ATTACHED TO THIS HEATER BECAUSE DAMAGE TO THE HEATER WILL
RESULT. DOING THIS WILL VOID THE WARRANTY!
Rheem strongly recommends that the heater be supplied directly from the main cold water trunk line when possible. This helps to
avoid a potential water flow interruption to the water heater which could lead to a failure of the heating element.
System Requirements:
Minimum turn on flow rates are family dependent:
