Your Comprehensive Homeowner Water Heating Resources Toolkit
July 26, 2022
As a homeowner, you’re probably always working to keep up, improve and invest in your home. It can be as simple as cleaning up the counters or adding a new decoration. It can be as complex as renovating the whole house. There’s a lot that goes into owning a home, but in any case, maintaining a home successfully goes beyond the exterior and can get technical.
Your water heater is the backbone of all you do inside the house, like doing chores, practicing good hygiene and taking advantage of essentials that use hot water. Running water keeps the house running. That’s why we’ve compiled a list of resources for you to pull out any time you need assistance with your water heater.
When You Are Searching for a Water Heater
After you’ve done some initial water heater research, start off on the right foot by finding a professional through our Find a Pro tool. It’s an instant way to pull up a list of Rheem® plumbers, especially if you haven’t established a relationship with one yet. Just type in your zip code and you’ll have a list of plumbing companies in your area at your disposal.
When You Need to Register Your New Water Heater
After buying your water heater, have your product serial number ready and register it. This allows you to access included warranty benefits, opt to extend warranty coverage and take advantage of other valuable Rheem support services.
When You Need to Monitor Your Water Heater
Our free EcoNet® app provides a way to watch and control your water heater right from your mobile phone. It offers protection in the form of timely maintenance and care alerts, precision comfort whether you’re at home or across the country, energy tracking and streamlined service calls for when you have a water heater with a Wi-Fi connection.
When You Need to Get Your Water Heater Serviced or Fixed
To keep your water heater in tip-top shape, schedule an annual maintenance check with a local plumber. By trusting an expert, you ensure your water heater gets a full check-up and is working properly to avoid issues in the future.
When You Want to Save on Your Water Heater
To give you back some of your money, we have local rebates available for select water heaters. Check our rebate center to see if your water heater has one available.
Also, check with your utility company for incentive programs if you think your water heater meets energy-efficient standards. You can reduce costs through incentive pricing or rebates.
Remember your options are open. If it’s time to move homes or replace your water heater, consider buying one that delivers long-term savings like the Rheem ProTerra® Hybrid Electric Water Heater, which provides up to $491 per year in energy cost savings, based on estimated annual operating cost savings of the 40, 50, 65 and 80-gallon models, or the new 120-Volt Rheem ProTerra Plug-in Heat Pump Water Heater for use only in certain climate regions. Our hybrid and heat pump water heaters are armed with smart controls and built-in technology so that you can easily save energy and costs without compromising comfort.
