Ruud Ultra Series Condensing Tankless 160 Water Heater Review
The Ruud Ultra Series Condensing Tankless 160 is Rheem's plumber-channel 160K BTU condensing tankless. Sized between the Ultra 180 and smaller Ultra units.
Specs: 160,000 BTU natural gas input, UEF 0.93 condensing, 7.2 GPM at a 35°F rise, stainless steel heat exchanger. PVC condensing venting. 12-year warranty on heat exchanger.

About $1,700 plumber-channel pricing, $3,100 plumber-installed including PVC venting. Right buyer: 2-bath primary residence wanting tankless capacity through plumber relationship at moderate capacity.
