About This Product
Introducing the Rheem ProTerra Plug-in Heat Pump Electric Water Heater for DEDICATED circuit breakers. Like Rheem's award-winning Proterra Hybrid models, it's known for its super high efficiency. Like the Shared Circuit ProTerra Plug-in, it's designed for easier replacement of a natural gas tank. With 4.75X the efficiency of a standard ULN gas water heater, it saves up to 53% on energy costs. For added savings, it's ENERGY STAR rated and may qualify for tax credits and/or utility rebate programs. This 50-gallon model is best for households with 2-3 people. As its name suggests, the ProTerra Plug-in features a factory-installed electric plug. It plugs into a DEDICATED 120V wall outlet. It's a true heat pump water heater as it utilizes heat pump technology to heat incoming water, rather than relying on heating elements, which standard electric water heaters use. Note: if replacing an electric water heater, the Platinum Hybrid should be used (30Amp or special order a 15Amp at the store).It's Smart: With its built-in Wi-Fi and the EcoNet app, owners can check hot water availability, set Vacation Mode, track energy, and schedule off-peak heating to save even more. For peace of mind, it comes with a 10-yr warranty and a 1-yr in-home labor warranty. PROFESSIONAL INSTALLATION RECOMMENDED: It requires a Dedicated Circuit and can utilize up to 100% of the capacity of a 15A breaker; it is crucial not to have any other electrical devices sharing the same breaker (including lights).

Questions & Answers
If replacing an electric water heater, why do you recommend a platinum hybrid instead? What is the KWH and therm costs used when comparing the savings over a natural gas heater? Will Californians see a savings over natural gas?
Hi Dan, The XE50T10HD00U0 is recommended because it cuts electric usage by 60–75%. Compared to natural gas, users generally do save money. For additional assistance, please call 866-279-4566 between the hours of 7 A.M. and 7 P.M. CST. Derius
Does this water heater require any venting?
Hi, No venting is required at all. Just make sure the unit has enough air to breathe and a place to drain condensate. Derius
How much space is required for installation.
Hi Gregory, You’ll need about 700 cubic feet of open-air space (or the equivalent via ducting) for the XE50T10HD00U0 heat‑pump water heater to operate correctly. This model requires significant airflow because the heat pump pulls heat from the surrounding air. Derius
