Questions & Answers
how much hot water does it produce in the first hour?
What is the higth of gas inlet off the floor on the 40 tall nature gas tank
For the pilot, does it need batteries or does run off a 110
Hello Lorenzo, The pilot is powered and sustained by the thermocouple on the pilot assembly. The pilot flame heats this thermocouple which then generators the small amount of electricity required to operate this unit. Isaiah
Does the anode rod on a Rheem XG75T12ST76U0 need to be replaced? If so, how often. Mine is 5 years old.
Yes, you should replace yours and flush the tank out. The mane difference between a 6 year and 12 year water heater is the anode. Or you can replace the anode with an electric anode that lasts about 25 years, more expensive but lasts.
Hello, The anode rod is a sacrificial part that is intended to be replaced as needed. How often is dependent on your water conditions. When checking the anode rod, it should be replaced once 6" or more of the core rod is exposed. That way your water heater can be best protected from the corrosive nature of water. Isaiah
What is the difference between the performance and the performance plus ?
Hello David, Performance Plus models may have a larger diameter anode rod for extended average lifespan/protection and some models may have additional features or controls. Isaiah
If we install the water heater does it void the warranty?
Hello Sandi, Rheem does not prohibit a homeowner from installing their own water heater nor will it hinder warranty so long as the unit is installed per the recommendations and instruction provided by the Use & Care Manual. We also advise referring to your local plumbing code to ensure that your local code does not require for a licensed plumber/contractor to install the appliance. Isaiah
how much dose it way?
Hello Greg, This model has a dry weight of 127lbs. Isaiah
Vent pipe diameter
Hello Jerry, The venting for this unit is 3" metal B-vent. Isaiah
