Model No: 52H180

Rheem Premier Hiline® 52H180 Stainless Steel Solar Water Heater

Designed for areas that experience frost or snow. The Rheem Premier Hiline uses the highly efficient heat transferring properties of a special anti-freeze fluid to transfer the absorbed energy to heat the water indirectly. With an ‘indirect system’ water does not pass through the collector panels, instead the anti-freeze mixture is circulated from the collectors through a stainless steel heat exchanger, transferring the heat into the water.

The benefit of this ‘indirect’ heat exchange process is that the system can be used confidently in frost areas, without risking damage to the system; it offers protection against damage in freezing conditions.

Rheem Stainless Steel water heaters are not recommended for installation in some areas with poor water quality. Refer to the Stainless Steel Suitability Map for your state to see if Stainless Steel is suitable for your home.
