Rheem 22V50F1 is a natural gas water heater with a metal, glass-lined outer shell and a tall water heater. White color can also have a cool effect on the unit. Rheem is very practical for households with more than 5 members and this unit can also accommodate those who wish to enjoy longer baths. This model recharges quickly, so using the sink and shower at the same time will be a piece of cake!
With its installation, buyers should also think about the plumbing connection of their homes. Generally, the Rheem 22V50F1 can deliver enough water to supply a large family. You just need to make sure it’s a fair distance between your appliances that need hot water or else additional plumbing is needed.
Anyone who is used to living with a 40-gallon water heater and would like to enjoy longer showers might consider purchasing the Rheem 22V50F1 50-gallon. Delivers approximately 90 gallons of hot water per hour and delivers hot water and recharges quickly.
Installation is easy and requires very few tools. As with other items shipped from anywhere, you should inspect the product upon receipt. There are a notable number of buyers reporting teeth in the tank liner. Some return the unit, others go ahead and install the tank and find that for the most part the dents are cosmetic and as long as the glass lining isn’t damaged the water heater will work just fine.
Usage Considerations
A family of between 4 and 9 people can comfortably live with the Rheem Fury 22V50F1.

Look closely at customer reviews because the reviews for the Rheem Furry 40 and 50 gallon heaters are mixed on the 50 gallon water heater page. I realized this when reading Amazon customer reviews and was careful to only read the 50 gallon tank reviews while doing research for this heater.
