The Rheem Professional Classic 27kW is a residential electric tankless water heater for indoor use. It heats water on demand, so hot water does not run out during showers or back-to-back showers. It mounts on the wall.
It has three copper-clad immersion heating elements with brass terminations for increased durability. Each element is rated 9 kW, for a maximum of 27 kW. The unit turns on at a flow of 0.3 gpm and handles flow rates from 0.3 to 6.6 gpm.
The standard temperature setting is 120°F, adjustable from 80°F to 140°F. Temperature accuracy is +/-1° increments at steady flow.
