Looking for a quaility electric water heater with good parts availability. Plumber can get Bradford White and AO Smith or other. Considering the Bradford White 40 gal. Tall 4.5kW 2-Element - RE340T6-1NCWW-506. No easy access to gas or venting for gas. Alsp saw HTP everlast can't tell if it's a gimmick or really built for life.

1200 sq foot townhome, 2 bed, 2 bath, 2 people, current 40 gallon keeps up, buit is dripping at drain and put out dirty corroded water.

Indeed, the Everlast stainless steel can't be beat. HTP is a very fine company with smart, premium engineering concepts.
Long term investment vs. multiple purchases at lower cost but spread out over time.

Thanks, any trouble with parts availability or servicing for those heaters? Looks like they may be the best but want to be able to get parts if they break.
