What it delivers
The Rheem EGSP6 Mini-Tank Water Heater is a mini-tank heater holding 6 gallons, rated at 2 kW on 120 volts.
Small tanks like this serve one sink or a wet bar: hot water on demand from storage, reheated between uses.
At 120 volts it plugs into or wires to an ordinary household circuit, which is why mini tanks are a common retrofit.
Other listed details: features: Overheat Protection; model: EGSP6.
