Feel the FURY
By k0b3x onWhen my family moved houses a few years ago we needed to buy a new water heater. We decided to go with the Fury model from Rheem. Rheem is supposedly the number one brand for water heaters. The Fury model is a 75gal capacity water heater and coming from a family of four, I can say that this is more than enough because we have never run out of hot water. This heater is pretty efficient, as it is estimated to costs just around $180 dollars to run a year. My home just underwent remodeling and the heater had to be turned off. I had to relight the heater and I can say that it is a slightly difficult task. You need to have a long lighter in hand as matches will not do the job. However, after the heater is lit, hot water is running in a matter of minutes (about 20-30 min). All in all, our Rheem Fury heater has given us no problems and does the job day in and day out so Rheem is definitely recommended.
The appliance we never think about until it goes out! Good job.
Thanks for the info as I may be looking for a new water heater soon.
Love your title! I don't forsee a new waterheater in my future, but if I do, i will check out this brand.
We've had our Rheem for over 12 years & it still runs as good as new!!!
Glad it works well, just hope that pilot light doesn't go out too often!
Sounds like a dependable, reliable water heater. Where I live $1000 is considered a good price for a water heater. A friend of mine had her heater blow up in the basement, really frightened them, they were quoted $5000 for a water heater only guaranteed to last five years. They've been shopping around.
