About the Rheem 16L Natural Gas Continuous Flow Water Heater
The Rheem 16L Natural Gas Continuous Flow Water Heater is part of Rheem’s compact gas continuous flow range. It heats water only when hot water is needed, rather than storing a full tank of heated water.
This makes it a practical option for homes where space matters and where the existing setup is suitable for an external natural gas continuous flow unit.
The 16L model is designed for around 1 to 1.5 bathrooms depending on climate, water pressure, pipe sizing, outlet demand and household usage. It is best suited to smaller to medium homes where the hot water demand suits a 16 L/min flow rate.
This is the natural gas version. Natural gas and LPG models are not interchangeable, so the correct gas type must be selected before ordering or installation.

Compact Continuous Flow Design
The Rheem 16L Natural Gas continuous flow water heater is designed to save space compared with a traditional gas storage hot water system.
Because it heats water on demand, it does not require a large storage cylinder. The compact body can be mounted externally on a suitable wall, making it useful for homes with limited outdoor space, narrow side access, townhouses, units and smaller replacement locations.
50°C Temperature-Limited Output
This model is the 50°C factory temperature-limited version.
A 50°C model can be a practical option for domestic hot water installations where safer outlet temperature control is important.
Some applications may still require additional tempering or installation controls depending on the property, plumbing layout, fixtures and compliance requirements.
Natural Gas Hot Water
This product is the natural gas version of the Rheem 16L continuous flow water heater.
It is intended for homes connected to natural gas. It is not the same as the LPG version, and the two gas types cannot be swapped without selecting the correct product and completing suitable licensed gas work.
Customers should confirm their gas type before ordering.
Rheem Q Factor™ and Flamesafe® Protection
The Rheem 16L Natural Gas includes Rheem Q Factor™ technology, designed to help deliver steadier hot water temperature and reduce fluctuations that can occur with some continuous flow systems when demand changes.
It also includes Flamesafe® overheat protection, designed to shut down the water heater before overheating can occur.
Common Uses
The Rheem 16L Natural Gas 50°C Continuous Flow Hot Water System can be suitable for:
