The Rheem RTG-95DVLN-3 is a non-condensing tankless water heater designed for indoor installation and natural gas operation. It delivers a maximum flow rate of up to 9.5 GPM at a 35°F temperature rise, with a maximum input of 199,900 BTU/h and a Uniform Energy Factor (UEF) of 0.82. Its tankless design heats water on demand. Installation and operation must follow Rheem’s requirements for this specific model.

Key Benefits

  • Enjoy Hot Water on Demand: Provides hot water as needed without the storage limitations of a traditional tank water heater, making it suitable for everyday residential use.
  • Save Space in Your Home: The compact, wall-mounted design helps free up valuable floor space compared with conventional storage-tank water heaters.
  • Support On-Demand Water Heating: The tankless design heats water as needed rather than maintaining a stored volume of hot water.
  • Minimize Cold-Water Bursts: Rheem's Hot-Start Programming™ keeps the unit in a ready state between back-to-back hot-water uses, helping minimize cold-water bursts.
  • Meet Household Hot-Water Needs: With a maximum gas input of 199,900 BTU/h and a rated flow of up to 9.5 GPM at a 35°F temperature rise, this model can support residential hot-water demands depending on incoming water temperature and simultaneous usage.
  • Use Natural Gas Fuel: Designed for homes with a compatible natural gas supply and properly sized gas connections.
  • Enjoy Flexible Indoor Installation: Supports vent runs up to 43 feet and requires 1/2-inch side-to-side clearance under Rheem's specified installation conditions. Follow the installation manual for venting, service access, and applicable code requirements.
  • Meet Low-NOx Requirements: Meets the 14 ng/J NOx requirement and complies with SCAQMD Rule 1146.2, according to Rheem.
  • Benefit from High-Efficiency Performance: The unit has a 0.82 Uniform Energy Factor (UEF), according to Rheem's specifications.
  • Benefit from Warranty Coverage: Includes a limited 15-year heat exchanger warranty, 5-year parts warranty, and 1-year labor warranty, subject to Rheem's terms and conditions.

Understanding Tankless Water Heater Sizing

Tankless water heaters are sized by flow rate (GPM) and temperature rise. Flow rate refers to the amount of hot water the unit can deliver per minute, while temperature rise is the difference between the incoming cold-water temperature and the desired hot-water temperature.

For the Rheem RTG-95DVLN-3, the rated maximum flow rate is 9.5 GPM at a 35°F temperature rise, 7.4 GPM at a 45°F temperature rise, and 5.0 GPM at a 67°F temperature rise. Available flow rate decreases as the required temperature rise increases. Actual performance depends on incoming water temperature, the selected water temperature, and operating conditions.

How to Calculate Temperature Rise

To determine temperature rise, subtract the incoming water temperature from your desired hot water temperature. For example, if the incoming water temperature is 55°F and the desired water temperature is 120°F:

120°F - 55°F = 65°F Temperature Rise

Refer to the Water Flow (GPM) chart below to compare estimated flow rates at different temperature rises and determine whether the Rheem RTG-70DVLN-3 can meet your household's hot water demand. This model delivers up to 7.0 GPM at a 35°F temperature rise. Actual flow rates vary depending on incoming water temperature and the selected water heater temperature.

Advanced On-Demand Tankless Water Heating

The Rheem RTG Series is a high-efficiency, non-condensing tankless gas water heater designed to provide hot water on demand without a storage tank. With a 0.82 Uniform Energy Factor (UEF), it delivers efficient performance for residential applications.

Available in natural gas and liquid propane models, the RTG Series offers multiple capacities, a compact wall-mounted design, and Hot-Start Programming to help minimize cold-water bursts during back-to-back use. Select RTG-95DVEL models also include EcoNet Wi-Fi connectivity and LeakGuard technology for added convenience and leak protection.

High Efficiency Non-Condensing Tankless Gas Water Heater

The Rheem RTG Series is a high-efficiency, non-condensing tankless gas water heater designed for residential applications. Depending on the model, the unit provides up to 199,900 BTU/h of gas input, a maximum flow rate of up to 9.5 GPM at a 35°F temperature rise, and a 0.82 Uniform Energy Factor (UEF).

Easy Installation

The Rheem RTG Series features an enhanced design that is up to 10% smaller and 22% lighter, helping simplify handling and installation. The unit offers up to 43 feet of vent run capability and universal venting compatibility with select approved venting systems, making it suitable for new installations and compatible tankless water heater replacements.

A 1/2-inch side-to-side clearance provides added installation flexibility in tight spaces. The series also supports 1/2-inch gas-line compatibility, subject to local code requirements and installation conditions.

h3>Hot-Start Programming

Rheem's exclusive Hot-Start Programming keeps the unit in a ready state between back-to-back hot-water usage, helping minimize cold-water bursts.

Precise Temperature Control

The Rheem RTG Series offers an adjustable temperature range of 100°F to 140°F, with a factory temperature setting of 120°F. The unit has a minimum activation flow of 0.4 GPM and a minimum continuous flow of 0.26 GPM.

Durable Heat Exchanger

The Rheem RTG Series features a copper primary heat exchanger for on-demand water heating. The non-condensing design does not use the stainless-steel secondary heat exchanger found in certain condensing models. The series also provides freeze protection down to -30°F intake air temperature and -4°F ambient temperature, under the conditions specified by Rheem.

Ultra Low NOx

The Rheem RTG Series meets 14 ng/J NOx requirements and is SCAQMD Rule 1146.2 compliant.

Built-In Digital Display

The Rheem RTG Series features a built-in digital display for convenient system control and temperature adjustment. It operates on a 120V, 60Hz power supply, with maximum power consumption of 85W during normal use, 132W during antifreeze operation, and 3.5W in standby.

Smart Controls & Leak Protection Available on Select Models

The RTG-95DVELN-3 and RTG-95DVELP-3 feature built-in EcoNet Wi-Fi technology and the LeakGuard Leak Detection and Prevention System. These features provide connected control and added protection against leaks originating from the water heater. They are not included on the RTG-70DVLN-3, RTG-70DVLP-3, RTG-84DVLN-3, RTG-84DVLP-3, RTG-95DVLN-3, or RTG-95DVLP-3.

Indoor Installation

All eight models are designed for indoor installation. As non-condensing tankless water heaters, they do not require the condensate connection used by condensing models. Each unit uses a 3/4-inch NPT gas connection, a 3/4-inch NPT hot-water connection, and a 3/4-inch NPT cold-water connection. Installation must follow the applicable model's instructions and local codes.

Flexible Venting Options

The Rheem RTG indoor series supports approved 3-inch by 5-inch concentric venting with a maximum straight-pipe vent run of up to 43 feet. Approved venting materials and configurations must follow Rheem's installation instructions. The maximum allowable vent length decreases when elbows are used.

Warranty

The Rheem RTG Series includes a 15-year limited heat exchanger warranty, a 5-year parts warranty, and a 1-year labor warranty, subject to the manufacturer's warranty terms and conditions.
