Please note: Due to localised water conditions, Rheem New Zealand advise that our Low Pressure Copper hot water cylinders are not suitable for installation in the postcode areas of 4120 and 4122 in the Hastings district. These cylinders are outside of our Rheem Warranty water chemistry terms based upon recent testing and may result in subsequent pinhole corrosion. We recommend the use of Vitreous Enamel and Stainless Steel cylinders for this area.
