Installed one this week in my basement and was surprised how quiet it is.

Can it be installed in an attic space?

Is the condensation corrosive? Can we route it to the sump pump?

I've had one about a week and it works fine now. I had a problem during install because the input and outport pipes are labeled with just a paper sticker on the top cover. And the stickers were reversed from what the install guide showed. That's pretty poor quality control by rheem.

The wifi app pairing is atrocious. Let me just put my own information in rather let your app attempt to pair.

It may be efficient but it is excessively loud. We have one in our unit and it drives us crazy. We have gotten it replaced and it still sounds extremely loud. It produces a very high pitched noise.

now just make it with a gas backup/booster and I'll buy it today.

Do not notice any noise coming from ours.

They units with one interior unit make cool in winter and aren't good. The SPLIT UNITS with indoor unit and exterior unit are good water heater heat pumps.

If I hade 1 of these water heaters
In my basment that is very well
Ventaletated would the noise
Still be to noisy plus what and
We're in Indiana we're I live
Would put it in what type of
Price what type of tax credits
And what type of monthly savings
On gas bill

Way too loud, just put one in last week. They even removed the decibel rating from the newer models. Yeah, I don't see any way you would install this in your kitchen. This thing is 70 decibels a few feet away. It's 60 decibels in the upstairs parts of the house. The compressor makes a ringing noise along with a loud droning sound. Even if the compressor didn't make any noise, I can't see you having this in the kitchen. Just blowing cold air to the inside of the house whenever it's on.

this device looks more like a big, silver information harvesting device.

Rheem warranties are a farce! DO NOT Leaks are warrantied for 5 years, but if the part can be replaced, you fall under the one year "parts warranty" and have to buy and replace the part yourself.
