LPG Gas Storage Hot Water
This product is the LPG / propane version of the Rheem 4 Star 170L gas storage water heater.
It is designed for properties using bottled LPG or a compatible LPG supply. LPG and natural gas units are not interchangeable, so the correct gas type must be selected before ordering or installation.
If your current water heater is connected to natural gas, choose the natural gas model instead. If your current setup uses LPG bottles, this LPG version is the correct product pathway.
Mains Pressure Hot Water
The Rheem 4 Star 170L Gas Storage Water Heater provides mains pressure hot water, helping deliver strong hot water flow to multiple taps where the property’s plumbing and pressure conditions are suitable.
This makes it a practical replacement for homes where customers want the familiar performance of gas storage hot water rather than switching to a continuous flow system.
283L First Hour Capacity
The 283L first hour capacity is one of the key reasons customers choose the Rheem 4 Star 170L gas storage model.
First hour capacity combines stored hot water with recovery performance, helping reduce waiting time between showers compared with slower-recovering systems. This can be useful for family routines where multiple showers, laundry or kitchen hot water use can happen close together.
4 Star Gas Efficiency
The Rheem 4 Star 170L is designed to use less gas than many older gas storage water heaters. Rheem lists the model with 4 Star energy efficiency, making it a practical replacement when upgrading from an older, less efficient gas storage unit.
Actual running costs still depend on household hot water use, LPG pricing, thermostat settings, climate, installation condition and how the system is used.
Outdoor Installation Only
The Rheem 4 Star 170L LPG Gas Storage Water Heater is designed for outdoor installation.
It should not be installed internally. Gas hot water systems must be installed in accordance with manufacturer instructions, gas fitting rules, ventilation requirements, clearance requirements and local compliance standards.
Common Uses
The Rheem 4 Star 170L LPG Gas Storage Hot Water System can be suitable for:
-
LPG gas storage hot water replacement
-
Outdoor gas storage installations
-
Homes using bottled LPG
-
Family homes
-
Larger households
-
Townhouses
-
Rental properties
-
Investment homes
-
Properties replacing older 3 Star or 4 Star gas storage units
-
Homes wanting mains pressure gas storage hot water
-
Supply-only orders where a licensed gas fitter is already arranged
-
Supply and install orders in selected Brisbane and Gold Coast areas
