Easy to install. Works great.

 Would Recommend

I thought we would have difficulty wiring this in, but it was not a problem at all. It works well and saved us from needing to replace the whole hot water heater.

Perfect and Easy Swap

 Would Recommend

Have a Rheem water heater and this is what I needed. Did a voltage check to ensure that correct voltage was coming in to the thermostat, but the voltage going out on the old one was not correct. Purchased this unit, and completely fixed the problem! Saved me from buying a whole tank!
