Rheem ProTerra 80 gal. Residential Hybrid High Efficiency Smart Tank Electric Water Heater

The Rheem ProTerra 80 gal. Residential Hybrid High Efficiency Smart Tank Electric Water Heater is a Rheem ProTerra residential hybrid electric water heater that uses heat pump technology for high-efficiency hot water production. The 80-gallon tank size supports residential applications where energy savings are a priority.

Unlike standard electric tanks, ProTerra models extract heat from surrounding air and transfer it into the stored water. Installation planning should account for air space, condensate drainage, sound, and smart-control setup.
