Rheem Hot Water Heaters for Advanced Comfort 

Residential hot water heaters account for approximately 18 percent of a home’s energy use. This critical appliance is second only to heating and cooling systems when it comes to energy consumption in a home. That’s the primary reason choosing an energy efficient water heater is so important.  

With decades of experience in the HVAC industry, Standard understands that energy efficiency is one of the essential factors to consider. Rheem domestic hot water heaters combine an outstanding combination of convenience-focused features with efficient energy consumption.  

With that in mind, let’s explore a few of the outstanding reasons Rheem remains one of Standard’s preferred brands. 

Mobile Leak Alerts 

An undetected water heater leak can wreak havoc on a home, causing both expensive damage and disruptions to the home’s water supply. Rheem integrates smart leak protection with its Smart Electric and ProTerra Hybrid Electric Water Heaters, which come with the company’s LeakSense and LeakGuard technology. LeakSense detects a leak within 15 seconds, and then the LeakGuard feature shuts the water off after receiving the leak alert. 

The Rheem EcoNet App 

Homeowners appreciate the peace of mind that this offers. Even better, Rheem’s mobile leak alerts, powered by its EcoNet application, provide notifications so you never have to worry when you aren’t at home. In addition to leak alerts, other benefits provided by the app include maintenance alerts and precision temperature control. 

Water Heater Booster 

Unexpectedly running out of hot water can put a real chill on an otherwise great day. With Rheem’s Water Heater Booster, which can attach to the tank or a wall nearby, you get as much as 45% increased capacity. Additionally, with its innovative Eco and Vacation modes, homeowners can power down the tank seamlessly when hot water isn’t needed, allowing them to save energy, money, and space.  

By increasing tank capacity, the Water Heater Booster can deliver 80-gallon tank results on a 50-gallon water heater tank — no additional square footage required. 

Energy Efficient Water Heaters 

Rheem doesn’t just claim to be energy efficient. The company is committed to excellence, which is why it was named Energy Star Partner of the Year in 2024 for the fourth consecutive year. The award represents the highest recognition from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). It also reflects Rheem’s ongoing efforts to promote energy conservation with environmentally minded, energy efficient solutions. 

Energy Star Rating Certified 

Rheem is also a standout in the HVAC industry, offering 152 Energy Star-certified water heaters. That’s more than any domestic water heater manufacturer. It’s also notable that Rheem’s water heaters with the Energy Star label are in the top 25% of efficient performers in the marketplace. Best of all, homeowners can save as much as $330 per year by opting for an Energy Star-certified model. 

Sustainability Minded Manufacturing Processes 

Rheem strives to design its domestic hot water heaters with sustainability and lower environmental impact in mind. By 2025, the brand aims to launch water heating products that reduce their greenhouse gas footprint by 50%. Additionally, they aim to slash greenhouse gas emissions at their global manufacturing facilities and provide sustainability training to one-quarter of a million influencers, contractors, and plumbers. 

High Water Delivery 

Rheem offers residential hot water heater options that include efficient tank models, hybrid s like the ProTerra Plug-in Heat Pump Water Heater, and tankless models. No matter which option you choose, you can count on ample water delivery and reliable output. Comfort, convenience, reduced energy consumption, and cost savings — a Rheem domestic hot water heater delivers it all.
