Procurement Notes

FAQs

What should a contractor verify before ordering Rheem RE47S2RH95691800?

Verify the old unit nameplate, available space, Electric service, water-connection size, local code, and any venting or electrical requirements before treating it as a direct replacement.

What jobsite details help Super Arbor quote this correctly?

Send the model being replaced, install photos, site ZIP code, quantity, delivery window, access limits, and whether liftgate, scheduled delivery, or multi-unit staging is needed.

How should 47 gal be used in sizing?

Use it as a planning signal, then confirm against fixture count, tenant demand, recovery/flow needs, incoming water temperature, and local code rather than matching only the old tank size.

What utility or install constraint matters most for this electric tank water heaters?

Confirm Electric and 240V / 4.5 kW / Single Phase; for tankless models also confirm clearance and connection requirements, condensate handling when applicable, gas-line capacity, and termination location before purchase.

Why keep this as a draft sample before activating it?

It has enough identity, price, image, and spec evidence for review, but activation should wait until merchandising, margin, shipping method, and any project-specific compatibility notes are approved.
