DYI'er here, considering installation of a Rheem Ikonic RTGH-SR11i. This is the one with the built in recirculation pump. This installation would place the water heater in the basement and the crossover valve on the second floor. In reviewing the spec. sheet and installation documents I haven't been able to find any specifications on the recirculation pump, or mention of any limitations on head. Seems like there should be a head/flow chart available. I just want to make sure that it will be able to recirculate at a flow rate that is greater than the minimum for unit (.4 GPM). Talking to Rheem tech. support was a waste of time. They indicated that they only fix problems and don't have any access to engineering support, that's not confidence inspiring.
Does anyone have experience with this unit installed in a similar application?
