Rheem PROE201RHPOU120V 20 Gal 120V Point-of-use Water Heater

Product Description

The RHEEM PROE201RHPOU120V is a point-of-use electric water heater from the Professional Classic Series, designed to deliver hot water at or near the point of demand. Running on 120 volts, this 20-gallon tank is built for installations where a central water heater is impractical or where supplemental capacity is needed at a specific fixture. It carries a 6-year warranty and is intended for installation by a licensed plumber or qualified HVAC technician in light commercial or residential applications.

Point-of-use water heaters like the PROE201RHPOU120V are commonly installed under sinks, in break rooms, utility closets, or remote bathrooms where the distance from the main water heater causes long wait times for hot water. The 120-volt configuration makes electrical rough-in straightforward in most locations without requiring a dedicated 240-volt circuit. This unit suits both new construction and retrofit scenarios where space and electrical capacity are limited.

Key Features

• 20-gallon tank capacity sized for point-of-use demand at a single fixture or small zone
• 120-volt operation eliminates the need for a 240-volt dedicated circuit
• Professional Classic Series build quality backed by a 6-year warranty
• Compact point-of-use form factor for under-sink or closet installation
• Electric resistance heating with no venting requirement

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM point-of-use electric water heater replacement or new-installation unit for residential and light commercial applications requiring 120-volt, small-capacity hot water supply.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and the applicable edition of the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the cold water supply and disconnect power at the breaker before beginning work. Verify that the existing electrical circuit is rated to handle the unit load before connecting. Do not exceed the maximum working pressure rated for this heater and always install a temperature and pressure relief valve as required by code.
