In-Store Exclusive

This one's worth the trip to the store.

Brands like Weber, Milwaukee, Yeti, and DeWalt restrict where their products can be sold online — and for good reason. In-store buyers get authentic products, full manufacturer warranty, and access to pricing that simply isn't allowed to be advertised on the web.

  • Authorized dealer network · Full manufacturer warranty & support
  • Guaranteed authentic · No counterfeits, no gray-market resellers
  • The brands set these standards · Be wary of sellers who don't follow them

About Product Overview

This Reliance 50-gallon electric water heater is built for households that need steady, dependable hot water without a lot of fuss. It runs on a 240-volt, 4500-watt element setup, drawing 18.75 amps, and handles pressures up to 150 PSI and temperatures up to 150°F, with a minimum operating temperature of 50°F. The top-mounted 3/4-inch water connections make installation straightforward, and a temperature pressure relief valve is included for safety, as required on any tank of this type.

At 59 inches tall and 20.5 inches in diameter, it's sized to fit standard residential utility closets and basements without crowding the space. CSA listed and made in the USA, it's backed by Reliance's 6-year limited warranty on the tank and parts, plus 1 year of labor coverage - solid protection for a heater that's meant to run for years with minimal attention. This is a residential-grade unit, not intended for commercial use, and suits homeowners replacing an aging tank or outfitting a new build where 50 gallons covers daily hot water demand.

Every order helps keep your local hardware store on the corner.

Why we built NHG
You might find it for less locally. Independent retailers often offer competitive pricing — some products are even cheaper in-store than online.
Real expert advice — not search results. Independent hardware staff know their inventory and the local conditions you're working in.
Keep the neighborhood working. Every dollar spent at an independent retailer returns roughly 3x more to your local economy than at a national chain.

Ask our counter. Or theirs.

Most hardware stores can do more than you think. If we can't help you, the folks down the street probably can — just ask at the counter.

Their Counter
Try local first · we'll wait

The stores we send you to are local and independently run — often for generations, the kind of place where someone behind the counter knows the regulars. We don't own them. We just think they deserve the foot traffic. They can put most of what we sell on their next truck. Ask there before you check out here.

About our directory. National Hardware Group is an independent retailer and directory. The local stores we list and link to are separately owned and operated — we have no ownership stake in any of them, and most pay us nothing to be included. That includes plenty of stores flying a familiar banner that people don't realize are locally owned and run, not operated by a corporation. Store owners can choose to upgrade their listing for an enhanced presence or pickup features, but the base directory is free, and inclusion is never a paid endorsement.
