50 gal electric rheem given to me by the electric company when i built the house 8 years ago. I plumbed it with copper by the way. I didn't ***** to the plumber about the cost and the plumber appreciated that.:laughing:

Copper will last 100 years here.....unless lightening gets it! And it does happen!!! Resale is higher with copper in this area because we have great water that loves copper pipe. Otherwise i would have used pex in a heartbeat.

Standard 50 gallon Rheem electric water heater.

My mom's house always had and currently has Bradford Whites. When this one goes out we are putting in a Noritz 0751 M- DVC, it will server her house perfectly.

Where I am living we have a Lochinvar Copper-Pak 360K BTU 100 Gallon unit serving my apartment building.

13 year old State NG 50 GAL.

 

[Plumbworker]

50 gal rheem guardian.. came with the house.. so far so good

 

[422 plumber]

Reliant or Reliance 40 gallon N.G. I came home from Europe in '02 and my water heater had sprung a leak while I was gone. I went to my local hardware store and grabbed what they had in stock.

 

[GREENPLUM]

1 year old 50 Gal Ele Rheem that cost $0. Thanks to my local supply house. I turn it off 6 months/year. Home made solar water heating that cost me nada. I get 140degree water from the sun.

 

[TheMaster]

I'm going to check on a solar system and then a smaller home-made wood fired brick furnace with heat exchanger for when its cold or periods of no sun for a backup. No elements firing at all. totally off grid besides the pumps and controls. and I might do a solar/battery system for the pumps. i have also considered wiring in low voltage lights throughout my home and have the option for either standard power lights or 12v low voltage. labor would be free for all of it.
