User Reviews

Users praise the hardware quality of the Rheem EcoNet system but repeatedly report a buggy, unstable app: frequent crashes, loss of connection to the heater, unreliable scheduling, and changes to energy-use data. UX and update quality are also cited as dragging down the experience. Some reviewers note that updates can fix issues, but the core app reliability remains a major concern while the hardware itself is viewed positively.

Pros

Solid hardware unit quality (water heater is praised as great).
App allows remote control of settings from anywhere via WiFi (remotely adjustable when functional).
Some updates have restored functionality and fixed issues, improving app reliability when issues occur.

Cons

Frequent app crashes or immediate launch failures; the app often won’t load or keeps crashing.
Persistent connectivity problems between the app and the water heater; remote connection drops or cannot connect at all.
Unreliable or limited scheduling features (away mode not reliably saved, schedules not transmitted, and some controls hidden or restricted).
Energy usage data is hard to view or has been removed/changed (numeric weekly usage replaced by bar charts).
Poor app design/UX with regressions after updates (generic alerts, confusing menus, and overall quality decline).

Recent reviews

Fantastic product when we installed it in the basement of the house. In the summer, it also helps to keep the house cool buy pumping the heat from the air in the basement into the hot water, as well as dehumidify the basement air. The wifi connection makes monitoring the operation and adjusting the settings as easy as just a few taps on the phone screen. The build quality is also premium compared to the natural gas and electric ones.
