Rheem Manufacturing Company has joined the Green Mechanical Council (GreenMech), a non-profit organization offering support and education to contractors, field technicians, and industry leaders..
The Atlanta, GA-based HVAC manfacturer has also agreed to sponsor the organization's Green Mechanical Awards, which recognize fuel-efficient residential and commercial HVAC installations completed by mechanical contractors, Design/Build contractors, and plumbers.
Rheem recently became the first industry manufacturer to announce delivery of a fully integrated, high-efficiency heat pump water heater to both the plumbing wholesale and utility channels. The new, air-source HP-50 heat pump water heater, which was showcased at the Greenbuild Expo, offers an Energy Factor (EF) of 2.0, or more than twice the energy efficiency of a standard electric storage water heater.
