SafeAdvantage
Efficiency is an important factor in sustainability, but it isn’t the only factor. In the case of SafeAdvantage™, people matter even more. Ideal for eye wash stations and emergency drench showers, SafeAdvantage water heaters stand at the ready to provide endless tepid water when seconds count.
LavAdvantage
An efficient water heater can save a lot of energy. And in an office building with dozens or even hundreds of handwashing stations, efficiency can contribute to a significant reduction in the building’s energy bills and its environmental footprint. LavAdvantage™ water heaters are efficient enough to save and robust enough to last.
HomeAdvantage II
While traditional tank-type water heaters constantly heat and reheat water, HomeAdvantage II™ Tankless Electric Water Heaters only use the necessary amount of energy to heat the water needed. According to the Department of Energy, this can reduce a home’s energy use for water heating—and the bills that follow it—by up to 50%.

Going All in To Stand Out

Inspiring Our People

We couldn’t build ideal water heating solutions for people without great people working on them. So we invest in hiring and inspiring our internal teams. At the same time, we invest in our partners’ success by providing our contractors with access to training programs, both in-field and online.

Our 2025 Commitment to Sustainability

By 2025, we will launch a line of air and water products that boast a 50% reduction in greenhouse gas footprint.*

Learn More
*Rheem’s goal is to release by 2025 a line of heating, cooling, and water heating products that reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 50% as compared to products available in 2019. Reduction calculations will be based on the products’ use phase emissions only and utilize average emission factors to account for variability in electricity grids. Reduction calculations will not consider upstream or manufacturing impacts, but use phase emissions account for the majority of the products’ impact. At this time, these figures have not been independently verified by a third party.
