Is the Rheem 4 Star 135L LPG Right for My Home?
A Good Choice If...
Your home already uses LPG, you are replacing an outdoor gas storage water heater, want mains-pressure stored hot water and the existing installation location is suitable.
Consider Another Option If...
Your property uses natural gas rather than LPG, the intended installation position is indoors, or the existing gas supply and clearances do not suit this model.
Check Before Ordering
Confirm gas type, LPG supply, outdoor installation location, water pressure, gas connection, valve requirements, access, base condition, clearances and compliance requirements.
This Product Is for LPG / Propane
This page is for the LPG / propane version of the Rheem 4 Star 135L gas storage water heater.
LPG and natural gas water heaters are not interchangeable. The unit selected must match the property's gas supply.
If the existing hot water system is connected to natural gas, the natural gas version should be selected instead. If the property uses bottled LPG or a compatible LPG supply, this is the correct gas variant.
How Does the Rheem 4 Star 135L LPG Work?
1. Hot Water Is Stored
The water heater stores up to 135L of hot water in its cylinder ready for household use.
2. LPG Burner Reheats
As hot water is used and cold water enters the tank, the LPG burner heats the incoming water and recovers the stored supply.
3. Mains-Pressure Delivery
The system provides mains-pressure hot water to connected fixtures where the property's water supply and plumbing are suitable.

What Does 248L First Hour Capacity Mean?
The Rheem 4 Star 135L has a listed 248L first hour capacity.

How Fast Does the Rheem 135L LPG Recover?
The supplied product information lists an hourly recovery of 113L.
Recovery performance helps determine how quickly the system can replenish hot water after stored water has been used. Actual household performance still depends on inlet water temperature, usage patterns and operating conditions.
How Efficient Is the Rheem 4 Star 135L LPG?
Rheem lists the 135L gas storage water heater with a 4 Star energy rating.
This can make it a practical replacement for selected older gas storage units with lower efficiency ratings.
Actual LPG consumption and running costs depend on household hot water use, LPG pricing, climate, thermostat operation, installation condition and system use.
Can the Rheem 4 Star 135L LPG Be Installed Indoors?
No. The Rheem 4 Star 135L LPG gas storage water heater is designed for outdoor installation.
The installation position must comply with manufacturer requirements, applicable gas fitting rules, ventilation requirements, clearance requirements and local compliance standards.
LPG vs Natural Gas — Choose the Correct Model
LPG / Propane
This page is for the LPG / propane model. It is intended for homes using bottled LPG or another compatible LPG supply.
Natural Gas
If the property is connected to natural gas, select the natural gas version instead. Do not order the LPG model for a natural gas installation.
What Is Required to Install the Rheem 4 Star 135L LPG?
Installation requirements depend on the existing gas storage setup, the condition of the plumbing and valves, LPG supply, access and whether the new system is remaining in the same location.
- Confirmed LPG / propane gas supply
- Outdoor installation position
- Suitable compliant gas connection
- Suitable level and structurally adequate base
- Compatible hot and cold water connections
- Correct valve arrangement
- Suitable incoming water pressure
- Compliant pressure-relief discharge
- Required gas appliance clearances
- Suitable ventilation and surrounding conditions
- Adequate service access
- Installation by appropriately licensed trades
Rheem 4 Star 135L LPG Water Pressure Requirements
The supplied specifications list a 1400 kPa relief valve pressure and a 1200 kPa expansion control valve setting.
The listed maximum water supply pressure is 960 kPa when an ECV is fitted and 1120 kPa without an ECV.
Incoming water pressure and the existing valve arrangement should be checked before installation. Replacement or additional valves may be required depending on the property.
Rheem 135L LPG Gas Connection Requirements
The supplied specifications list an Rp 1/2 gas connection and 27 MJ/hr gas consumption.
The LPG supply, pipework and gas connection must be suitable for the appliance and installation. Any required gas fitting work should be completed by an appropriately licensed gas fitter.
Can the Rheem 4 Star 135L LPG Replace My Existing Gas Hot Water System?
The Rheem 4 Star 135L LPG can be a practical replacement where the existing water heater is also LPG, the location is outdoors, and the gas supply, water pressure, pipework, clearances and access are suitable.
The supplied information positions the model as an easier replacement option for many older 3 Star and 4 Star gas storage water heaters due to common fitting arrangements.
Replacing Natural Gas With LPG
This should not be treated as a simple model swap. Natural gas and LPG units are different and the appliance must match the property's actual gas supply.
Relocating the System
Moving the new gas storage water heater to another location can require additional gas fitting, plumbing, drainage, base preparation and compliance work.

Why Buy the Rheem 4 Star 135L LPG From Installed Today?
Installed Today gives customers a straightforward way to purchase the Rheem 4 Star 135L LPG as a supply-only product or select an eligible supplied-and-installed package in Brisbane or the Gold Coast.

Before ordering, confirm that the property uses LPG / propane rather than natural gas, that the intended installation location is outdoors and that the LPG supply, gas connection, water pressure, plumbing, valves, clearances and access are suitable. Choose supply only if licensed trades are already arranged, or select an eligible Brisbane or Gold Coast supply and installation option where available.
Tempering valve information:
Where a hot water system is capable of delivering water above 50°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 customer’s 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.
