The Rheem Commercial Universal Gas Water Heaters, exemplified by the Universal 100 Gal. 199,900 BTU Natural Gas Water Heater, are engineered for seamless integration into constrained retrofit environments while boasting the capacity and capabilities to withstand rigorous commercial demands. Featuring a user-friendly spark-to-pilot electrical ignition system for swift activation, this model caters to diverse hot water applications with its expansive 100 Gal. tank and numerous water connections. Noteworthy for its compact footprint, minimal vent height, and versatile water connections, it stands as an optimal replacement unit. It's imperative to note that this model necessitates a 120-Volt power source. Additionally, its attributes include a space-saving design, facilitated by its short stature and narrow jacket diameters, alongside top, front, and rear water inlets/outlets, ensuring unparalleled installation flexibility. The inclusion of a System Sentinel LED diagnostic system ensures systematic operational verification. Furthermore, its robust tank design, propelled by proprietary steel formulation, patented multi-flue architecture, and dual porcelain enamel coats, yields a superior heat exchanger design. Stainless steel burners, equipped with a raised port configuration, offer durability and facilitate easy maintenance. A low-profile automatic flue damper minimizes overall product height, while a factory-installed full port, full-flow brass drain valve expedites servicing. The direct spark to pilot ignition system optimizes energy efficiency by igniting solely upon heat demand. Corrosion resistance is fortified through a patented anode design incorporating multiple magnesium rods. The unit is pre-installed with CSA/ASME rated T and P relief valves, ensuring safety and compliance. Fully insulated with energy-saving materials, and featuring a gas control system with adjustable thermostat settings, this model offers versatility and efficiency. Moreover, Rheem's universal line provides a range of configurations from 35 Gal. to 100 Gal. models, available in natural gas and liquid propane variants, catering to diverse preferences and requirements.
