Testimonials
We are incredibly grateful for the recent donation of a hot water cylinder by Rheem, which has made a significant difference in the lives of a family in Te Puke.
The family had been struggling with a leaking hot water cylinder for several months, which not only caused a rotten floor but also immense stress. The leaking hot water system had driven their energy bills up to $900 a month, forcing them to cut back on heating to manage costs. The cost of replacing the cylinder and repairing the floor was quoted at around $3500, a sum that was difficult for them to manage.
Thanks to Rheem’s generous donation, the family no longer has to worry about the leaking cylinder or the associated costs. Peter and his wife are deeply thankful for this support, which has alleviated a significant burden from their lives. They wanted to express their heartfelt gratitude to Rheem for making such a positive impact.
