Review: Mine failed after less than 5 months. Factory warranty is NOT honored by Rheem! - I liked this unit because the power vent is much more quiet than the Rheem that I was replacing. Now I'm having to buy another water heater after less than five months of use. Since desertcart is NOT an authorized dealer, Rheem will not honor the warranty. Otherwise, replacement would be a simple matter of picking it up at a local dealer.
Review: overpriced junk - After 1 1/2 years the pressure switch went bad, now out $500 to have it fixed.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Replaced our GE SmartWater Power Vent water heater with the Rheem...
*by A***Y on August 5, 2014*

Our GE SmartWater hot water tank failed and this is our replacement. We purchased the water tank and required installation hardware from our local Home Depot. The water tank comes with a 6 year warranty. Our GE SmartWater tank was almost 9 years old ahd developed a leak at the bottom, requiring replacement. Since we were replacing an existing 50 gallon Power Vented water heater, the process wasn't difficult and a plumber friend installed it for us. The blower motor is MUCH quieter than the old one and you can hardly hear it run. The tank produces quite a bit of hot water in one hour (87 gallons). The blower exhausts through 3" PVC, which we already had installed and the 120v power supply is next to the tank, so we had everything we needed. We've only had the water tank installed and running for 5 days, but it's working very well and quiet! I set the temp at 120 degrees and the light that blinks to indicate the status is easy to see, as is the adjustment dial at the bottom, front of the tank.
