Introducing the Rheem ProTerra Plug-in Heat Pump Electric Water Heater. Like the Rheem Proterra models， this 80 gallon model is known for its high efficiency. The ProTerra Plug-in was created to make it easier to replace your natural gas tank with an electric model. Over 4.5X the efficiency of a standard gas water heater， it saves up to 55% on energy costs. For added savings， it can be scheduled to heat at off-peak hours (lower price) for increased energy savings. Plus， it's ENERGY STAR Certified so it may qualify for tax credits and/or utility rebate programs. As its name indicates， ProTerra Plug-in has a factory-installed plug. It plugs into a standard 120v wall outlet for easier installation. It's a true heat pump water heater in that it uses heat pump technology to heat incoming water rather than using heating elements which traditional electric models use. It's Eco-Friendly. By replacing your natural gas water heater with ProTerra Plug-in， you’ll have more efficiency， zero emissions， and a reduced carbon footprint--these make this model a Rheem Sustainability Standout--which signifies it's highly sustainable. Finally， it's Smart: with its built-in WiFi and the EcoNet app， you can check hot water availability， set Vacation Mode， track energy usage， and schedule off-peak heating to save even more. As Performance Platinum， it comes with a 10-year warranty and a 1-year in-home labor warranty for peace of mind. This model is best for households with 3-5 people.
