Rheem Stellar 160L
Recently we received a phone call from a customer in the local metropolitan area. She called to say that there was water around her hot water system. The customer was unsure if this was related to the bad storms that had brought heavy rain recently or whether it was from the hot water system itself.
Luckily, we had a plumber that was just about to start in the customer’s area, so he was able to be there within the hour. As the customer had to go to work that afternoon, she needed the hot water system up and running when she got home. The unit in question was a Rheem Stellar 160L gas storage unit.
The Rheem Stellar gas hot water heater that we attended to was manufactured in 2002 and needed replacement as the water was coming out the top of the tank. As it happened, we had one of these units in our warehouse! It allowed us, therefore, to easily change her hot water system over.
As the customer was happy with the performance of her existing unit, we replaced it with exactly the same model – a Rheem Stellar 160 litre. These heaters are great for larger families, and one of the more favourable advantages is that they deliver hot water pressure at mains pressure. This delivers a great high-pressure shower each and every time.
The Rheem Stellar 330 and Rheem Stellar 360, such as this customer’s unit, are commonly installed throughout Australia and we are working with them on a daily basis. Our plumbers and gas fitters are fully trained in repairing and replacing these units, and each of our vans carries any required parts should a repair be necessary. As with this unit, when the tank is in need of replacing we have quick access to another so our client can be enjoying hot water again straight away.
Rheem has been manufacturing hot water heaters since 1939 with the very first one made in the inner suburbs of Sydney. Rheem is one of Australia’s biggest suppliers of hot water systems. It produces many different systems, including the 5-star Stellar range and the highly efficient 6-star rated continuous flow hot water units. This way Rheem ensures that it is able to provide you with energy efficiency for a wide range of hot water needs.
Rheem Stellar 360 Gas Storage Repair
An emergency call out was made to Plumber Near Me in the early hours of a Monday morning. The customer had no hot water from this Rheem Stellar 360 gas storage unit. The issue was a pilot light that was continually going out, a common fault for this model. Frantic, the customer was quickly able to get hold of Plumber Near Me to arrange a plumber for a repair.
Within the hour, a fully qualified Plumber Near Me technician attended the site. Moments later they found that the piezo igniter on the unit had been clogged due to strong winds and weather conditions. This effectively stopped the flow of gas to the pilot light. The plumber was able to quickly identify the problem, as the positioning of the unit meant it had been in the firing line of most of the area’s bad weather.
As the Rheem Stellar 360 is a very popular and common choice for customers across Australia, we were able to easily source the replacement part from a nearby supplier. The plumber was able to install the part swiftly and with ease, resulting in the customer being able to take a hot shower before leaving for work. This entire process, from booking to repair, took a total of 90 minutes, thanks to the incredible experience of the fully-qualified Plumber Near Me plumber.
The customer received a printed out, detailed report of the job scope, the identified problem, and what repairs were carried out on site, thanks to an advanced in-van computer system specifically designed for Plumber Near Me.
We also provided them with a 12-month warranty on the work carried out and any parts that were installed by the tradesman on site.
With a 5-star energy rating and an impressive 200L per hour in water recovery, it’s no mystery why the Rheem Stellar series is one of the top sellers in the market. This particular unit boasts a 10-year warranty on the cylinder, a five-year warranty on labour and a 12-month warranty on all parts and labour. The Stellar 360 is a mains pressure hot water service meaning the occupants are able to run multiple showers at a time and is also suitable for connection to natural gas supplies.
