What our customers say
Frequently Asked Questions
How long is the warranty on a new Rheem hot water cylinder?
Rheem cylinders typically come with a 5 or 10 year warranty on the inner tank, depending on the specific model. When installed by Maxey Plumbing, you also receive the added protection of the Master Plumbers Guarantee on all workmanship.
Can you repair my Rheem cylinder or does it need to be replaced?
Many issues, such as faulty elements, thermostats, or valves, can be repaired quickly to restore your hot water. However, if the inner tank is leaking or heavily corroded, a replacement is required.
Is Rheem continuous flow gas better than an electric cylinder?
It depends on your household needs. Continuous flow gas is ideal for large families because it never runs out of hot water and saves cupboard space. Electric cylinders are often simpler to install if you already have the wiring in place. We can assess your home to recommend the best fit for your budget.
How do I find the model number on my Rheem unit?
The model and serial numbers are located on a silver rating plate, usually found on the front of the cylinder or the side of a gas continuous flow unit. Having this information ready when you call helps us source the correct parts for a faster repair.
