Rheem, PROG50-42P-RH67-PV
Rheem 50-Gallon Power Vent LP Gas Water Heater – Engineered for Performance and Flexibility
The Rheem PROG50-42P-RH67-PV is a 50-gallon capacity power vent water heater designed for use with liquid propane gas. With a 42,000 BTU input and a recovery rate of 42.4 GPH at a 90°F rise, this unit delivers reliable performance in residential installations with moderate to high hot water demand. It is built for efficient operation and adaptable installation in venting-constrained layouts.
This model is part of Rheem’s Professional Classic Plus Series and is equipped with advanced diagnostics, a durable anode rod, and an environmentally friendly low-NOx burner. The power venting system allows for up to 100 feet of vent run using 2″ or 3″ PVC, ABS, or CPVC, making it suitable for installations with long vent paths or where vertical venting is impractical.
