Stainless Steel Cylinder
The Rheem Stellar 125L uses a stainless steel cylinder and stainless steel water fittings.
This design helps resist corrosion and can support longer product life where the water quality is suitable. It also removes the need for a sacrificial anode, helping reduce maintenance requirements compared with many enamel-lined electric storage systems.
Stainless steel is not suitable for every water supply area, so water quality suitability should be checked before choosing this model.
No Anode Maintenance
One of the key benefits of the Rheem Stellar 125L Stainless Steel Electric Water Heater is that it does not use a sacrificial anode.
Traditional enamel-lined storage systems usually rely on anodes to help protect the cylinder. Stainless steel systems are different, helping reduce anode-related maintenance and service costs over time where the product is suitable for the site.
Lighter and Easier to Handle
The Rheem Stellar 125L is listed as being up to 42% lighter than comparable systems under Rheemβs stated comparison.
This can help with handling and installation, especially in tight access areas, units, townhouses, side paths and compact replacement locations where a heavier cylinder may be more difficult to move into position.
Actual installation difficulty still depends on access, stairs, distance from vehicle, base location, existing unit removal and site conditions.
Better Energy Performance
Rheem lists the Stellar 125L as 17% better than MEPS under its stated comparison, helping reduce energy use compared with minimum standard requirements.
Actual running costs still depend on household hot water use, thermostat settings, tariff setup, element rating, climate and how the system is used.
For homes on a suitable lower-cost tariff, the correct electrical setup may help reduce operating costs compared with heating only on a standard tariff.
Dual Handed Connections
The Rheem Stellar 125L includes dual handed cold water connections, with the hot water connection located at the top of the water heater.
This can make replacement installation easier because the cold water connection can better suit different existing plumbing layouts. Dual handed connections are especially useful in like-for-like replacement jobs where matching existing pipework can help reduce unnecessary plumbing changes.
Compact 125L Electric Storage Design
The 125L storage size makes this model a practical choice for smaller homes and moderate hot water demand.
It is larger than a small 50L point-of-use system but more compact than 160L, 250L, 315L and 400L electric storage models. This makes it useful for households that need a proper storage hot water system but do not need a large family-size cylinder.
Water Quality Suitability
The Rheem Stellar 125L Stainless Steel Electric Water Heater is not recommended for every water condition.
Stainless steel cylinders can be a strong option where the local water supply is suitable, but some water chemistry conditions may make a vitreous enamel system more appropriate. Suitability should be checked before installation, especially in areas with known water quality concerns.
Common Uses
The Rheem Stellar 125L Stainless Steel Electric Hot Water System can be suitable for:
-
Smaller homes
-
Units and apartments
-
Townhouses
-
Granny flats
-
Rental properties
-

Tempering Valve and Element Information
*Element size information:
All electric hot water units are supplied as standard with a 3.6kW element unless otherwise stated on the product page, invoice, or order confirmation.
If a different element configuration is requested, such as 1.8kW or 2.4kW, the hot water unit may still arrive with the standard 3.6kW element fitted from the manufacturer. The requested 1.8kW or 2.4kW element will be supplied separately with the order for installation by a suitably licensed electrical contractor or licensed electrical licence holder.
Any element changeover, electrical connection, disconnection, wiring, testing, or modification must be carried out by a licensed electrical contractor or licensed electrical licence holder. Elements must not be changed, connected, modified, or tested by an unlicensed person.
Alternative elements supplied for non-standard configurations may be generic replacement elements and may not be the same brand as the hot water unit unless specifically stated. Generic elements are supplied to suit the requested element size and electrical configuration, but final suitability must be checked by the licensed installer before installation.
1.8kW and 2.4kW elements supplied separately with a hot water unit include a 12-month supply-only parts warranty from the date of purchase, provided the element has been correctly installed by a licensed electrical contractor or licensed electrical licence holder and used under normal operating conditions.
This element warranty covers the replacement supply of the element only. It does not include labour, call-out fees, electrical work, plumbing work, fault finding, removal, reinstallation, testing, travel, downtime, damage caused by incorrect installation, or any other associated costs. Warranty may be declined where the element has been incorrectly installed, dry-fired, modified, damaged, connected to incorrect voltage or wiring, affected by power issues, used in unsuitable water conditions, or installed by an unlicensed person.
Proof of purchase, installer details, electrical licence details, photos, and/or return of the faulty element may be required before a warranty claim is approved.
**Tempering valve information:
Where a hot water system is capable of delivering water above 50Β°C, a compliant tempering valve must be installed to control the temperature delivered to personal hygiene fixtures such as showers, baths, basins, and bathroom outlets. This helps reduce the risk of scalding and assists with meeting plumbing compliance requirements.
A tempering valve blends hot and cold water to deliver a safer controlled outlet temperature to required fixtures. The hot water unit itself may store water at a higher temperature, but the water delivered to personal hygiene outlets must be controlled where required by plumbing regulations.
If your property already has a suitable, compliant tempering valve installed, your licensed plumber can assess whether it is appropriate for use with the new hot water system. Existing valves may not always be suitable due to age, condition, compliance requirements, valve type, location, or system compatibility.
If a compliant tempering valve is not already installed, or if the existing valve is unsuitable, one must be supplied and installed by a licensed plumber as part of the hot water installation.
Tempering valves are not automatically included with every supply-only hot water unit unless specifically selected, listed as included, or purchased as part of a suitable valve kit. If a tempering valve is required, please purchase the appropriate valve kit with your order or arrange for your licensed installer to supply and install the correct tempering valve on site.
It is the customerβs responsibility to ensure the installation is completed by appropriately licensed trades and that all required valves, fittings, electrical work, plumbing work, and compliance requirements are allowed for as part of the installation.
