MODEL TYPE
Congratulations for choosing a Rheem electric water heater and a Rheem solar
conversion kit. The Rheem solar conversion kit converts your Rheem electric water
heater into a Rheem solar Loline water heater. Your Rheem solar Loline water
heater is designed for the solar collectors to be roof mounted and the solar storage
tank to be installed at ground level. The solar storage tank is suitable for either
outdoor or indoor installation. The system is suitable for installation, and offers
protection against freeze damage, in areas up to 800 metres altitude. The system is
not covered for freeze damage above 800 metres altitude (refer to “Warranty” on
page 40).
The model you have chosen will be either a Rheemglas or an Optima model. The
Optima model has a temperature adjusting knob on the lower front of the water
heater. Both the Rheemglas and Optima models are available with either a single
element or with twin elements (refer to “Single Element Models” on page 11 and
“Twin Element Models” on page 11).
HOW HOT SHOULD THE WATER BE?
The solar control unit will circulate water
through the solar collectors until a
temperature of approximately 75

HOW HOT SHOULD THE WATER BE?
The solar control unit will circulate water
through the solar collectors until a
temperature of approximately 75
°C is
reached. During periods of low solar
energy gain, the water temperature can
be boosted by the thermostatically
controlled electric booster heating unit.
This may be operated manually or
automatically depending on how it is
wired. Refer to pages 12 and 13 or check
with your electrician.
The Optima model features a user
adjustable thermostat, which allows you to
choose the most suitable boost
temperature for your hot water needs. The
Rheemglas model features a
tradesperson adjustable thermostat. This
requires a licensed tradesperson to make
any temperature adjustments. The
temperature is adjustable within the range
shown in the diagram opposite.
