Rheem Vertical Tank Replacement: 65SVP15S To The Same Model At Marine Parade on 4 Apr 2025

A homeowner at Marine Parade engaged Homeone to replace their existing Rheem vertical storage water heater (65SVP15S), which was showing visible signs of wear and non-compliance. Though the heater was still in use, several safety violations and aged fittings prompted the decision to perform a full upgrade.

After a detailed site assessment, our technician found critical safety concerns — including the use of a non-compliant 3-pin plug, corroded fittings, missing electrical bonding, and the absence of an anti-vacuum valve. To ensure all work was carried out in accordance with local regulations, the installation was performed under the supervision of a PUB Licensed Plumber.
