A total piece of garbage
I bought a 40 gallon 38000 BTU hot water heater by Rheem from Home Depot less then five years ago. It is already leaking from the base. The warranty is crap as is the Rheem hot water heater! Do not buy Rheem. I made a mistake that you can avoid. A piece of garbage in a box. Zero stars should be the rating.

Broke after 4 years and 8 months
Bought this on 4/09/18 at local HD in Garden Grove with 5 yrs protection plan. On 12/1522 it stopped working with indicator light blinks RED 7 times -> "Gas Control or Valve Failure" and i filed claim immediately. After over 2 weeks of dealing with HD warranty protection service and still haven't got my water heater fixed. The extended warranty (Asurion) is such a scam, DO NOT BUY IT. And this water heater breaks just after 4 years. Look for some other one. Avoid the troubles.

Leaks Early and Often
The FIRST LEAK was a steady dry from the cheap, plastic drain valve as soon as we filled the tank. We tightened up the the drain valve fitting and that partially solved the problem, although there was still discernible moisture at the point were the fitting enters the tank.
The SECOND LEAK occurred a week later as a steady leak from the hot water outlet nipple down, into the drip pan that then overflowed onto the garage floor.
Rheem customer service was nice enough; told me to take it back to HD and that they would pay $550 for reinstallation of anorther Rheem water heater.
Instead, I got a full refund from HD, and installed a Bradford White H2O heater instead.
Home Depot -- find a higher quality product to sell.
Rheem -- put better quality components into your H2O heaters.

Amazing Hot Water Tank!
I purchased this water tank to replace my 25 year old GWS! I hope I have the same luck! Easy to install, quite, great value, fast heating and tons of hot water! I would highly recommend this unit for purchase! The Home Depot was the best to deal with! Great job!

Not recommended
After having our other water heater for 19 years, we finally had to replace it. Purchased this supposedly “professional” Rheem water heater and now 2 years later pilot keeps turning off. Called a plumber for an estimate and it was more than the heater, $1,100. Never buying this brand again. Cheap appliances now a days.

100 Gallon ULN Gas Water Heater
Excellent Product. The heat sink nipples included with the water heater does it job. The ease of lighting the pilot with the blinking blue light on the thermostat takes the guesswork out if the pilot is lite.
Suggestion is to add 1-1/2" high pavers as base for water heater versus just sitting on the concrete floor.

Poor Quality Junk
I do not recommend Rheem. I bought a 75 gal performance water heater from Home Depot 3years ago. Unfortunately, the heater was already 3years old when HD sold it to me. It was new and in the box, but old stock. After 3 years of use and almost 6 years to the day from when it was built ( 10/2015) the tank began to leak and extinguished the flame and pilot. Disappointing product and service.
