Rheem tankless water heaters combine new technology and functionality in an innovative way to heat water. The result - you now have a greater choice of award-winning Rheem products designed to give you comfort. Our tankless water heaters are designed to enhance your lifestyle, utilize advanced technology for energy efficiency, and supply a continuous flow of low cost hot water whenever and wherever you need it.

"Easy as 1-2-3" Tankless Selection
If your home has 1 bathroom, a Rheem tankless RTG2-42 series water heater should provide an ample supply of continuous hot water. If your home has 1-2 bathrooms, you should consider a Rheem RTG-53 series water heater. For up to 3 bathroom homes, the larger RTG-74 series water heater should be selected. For homes with more than 3 bathrooms, large volume demands for hot water, or hot water circulating systems, you should choose our GT-199 heavy-duty water heater. In some applications, the heavy-duty tankless water heaters are linked together in a manifold configuration to meet the higher volume demands for continuous hot water. In fact, up to 20 heavy-duty models can be linked together to work as one water heating system where only one remote control and manifold controller are required - a Rheem exclusive. Other installation options are available, plus all tankless installations are now easily expandable by utilizing Rheem's EZ-Link system.
