ABOUT YOUR WATER HEATER
WATER HEATER APPLICATION
This water heater is designed for use in a single family domestic dwelling for
the purpose of heating potable water. Its use in an application other than this
may shorten its life.
MODEL TYPE
The Rheem® water heater model you have
chosen is suitable for outdoor installation only.
The model is a high efficiency, quick recovery
8A0 series Rheem Stellar™ 330 stainless
steel water heater.
Water is stored in a stainless steel cylinder
and heated by a gas burner located under the
cylinder. The heat produced by the burner is
transferred to the water through the base, top
and side walls of the storage cylinder with flue
baffle rings capturing heat to improve
efficiency. The gas supply to the burner is
controlled by the thermostat so the water is
heated to a constant temperature.
Automatic safety controls are fitted to the water heater to provide safe and
efficient operation.
HOW HOT SHOULD THE WATER BE?
The water heater features a user adjustable
thermostat, which allows you to personally
choose the most suitable temperature for your
hot water needs. Refer to “Temperature
Adjustment” on page 7.
To meet the requirements of the National
Plumbing Standard the temperature of the
stored water must not be below 60°C.
Note: AS 3498 requires that a water heater
provides the means to inhibit the growth of
Legionella bacteria in potable water. This
water heater can satisfy this AS 3498
requirement provided it is operating and the
thermostat setting is 60°C or higher, including
when it is used as an in-series booster water
heater for a solar water heater.
