Rheem® IKONIC™ is revolutionizing tankless. Our newest tankless water heater combines super high efficiency with smart technology. The goal is to get continuous hot water on demand and save money during times when you’re not using it. Continuous hot water means families can wash the dishes, load the laundry, cook dinner, bathe the kids and take long hot showers. With the built-in recirculation pump, you can choose when and how you want unlimited hot water.
As governments globally strive to achieve carbon emission reduction targets, decarbonization is a term you’ll hear more often. Decarbonization simply means the act of removing carbon. Similarly, a decarbonized economy is an economy that produces net-zero or carbon-neutral emissions.
Why Carbon Dioxide Matters
Why is it so important that we reduce CO2 emissions and decarbonize the economy? First, let’s understand the carbon cycle and why carbon matters.
The Earth has a naturally occurring carbon cycle that attempts to reach a dynamic equilibrium between the atmosphere and the Earth’s biosphere and oceans.
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,
It’s quite a mystery. How does such a small water heater produce a continuous supply of hot water? From the outside, our tankless water heater looks like a simple gray box. However, there is a lot going on in there and we’re showing you the textbook version of how a Rheem® tankless water heater works. It won’t be a mystery anymore. We’ll walk you through how condensing and non-condensing gas tankless units function.
How a Rheem Condensing Water Heater Works
Condensing tankless water heaters are much more efficient than non-condensing water heaters because they have two heat exchangers.
Across the country, local utilities and incentive programs offer rebates and credits for switching to Heat Pump Water Heaters (HPWHs). The goal is for homeowners to adopt high efficiency HPWHs to reduce energy demand, lower carbon emissions and help utility companies provide a reliable energy supply.
Why Are There Rebates and Incentives for Heat Pump Water Heaters?
Many states and cities have set aggressive carbon emission reduction targets. For example, California’s target is to reach net zero or carbon neutrality by 2045.
You may have heard about tankless water heaters, but how much do you know about them? We wanted to gather some of the top questions people have about tankless and put it all in one place. This will save you some time researching and help you decide if a tankless water heater is right for you. We’ll take some of the mystery out of a tankless and you’ll be well-informed on the benefits of a Rheem® tankless.
You may be very familiar with what’s needed to keep your car running smoothly and extend its life. It’s a complex machine and helps you in your everyday life, so having it running properly is extremely important. Your water heater is quite similar. It needs routine maintenance, and just like the diagnostics on your car, your water heater can let you know when it’s time for service so it keeps running in optimal condition. You wouldn’t want to be without hot water,
