Rheem Upper Heat Element SP610130

This genuine Rheem replacement part is designed for the upper heating position in compatible Vanguard water heaters. It restores hot water supply when the original element fails. The component is manufactured to Rheem specifications using HAWA material. It fits specific Rheem branded models.

Replaces a burnt-out upper element

Install this element when the existing upper heater fails and the tank itself remains sound. The repair is worth it if the water heater is otherwise in good condition and the lower element tests functional. It is not for heaters requiring a different flange, wattage, or voltage rating. Buyers needing a complete tank replacement or a different brand fit should look elsewhere.
