Rheem induced draftPacks a Punch

This small water heater produces more hot water than most 40- and 50-gallon models. It’s perfect for 3-5 person households or homes with 2 bathrooms. Some homes may have a small space for a water heater or only closet space for it. It’s lightweight and has a narrow, 17-3/4″ diameter.

As far as output, this water heater has a first hour delivery of 93. First hour delivery is the amount of hot water a completely heated water heater can deliver in the first hour. This gives an idea of how much the water heater can deliver.
