Overall
Just Installed

Just replaced a Rheem with this unit. The installer explained how much safer this is than the old hot water heaters. About the same noise level as the Rheem. Heated all 50 gallons within an hour. Doesn't seem to run as much as the Rheem did. Probably has more and better insulation.

I would recommend this product to a friend.
