We have a 50 gallon tank that gives cold water after several people shower.** A: No the length makes it so the wattage of the element is carried over a larger surface area thus reducing the stress on the metal and reducing burnouts. Think if the element was only 2" long then all 4500w would be concentrated in that small length and overwork the element. The larger surface area will heat the water more efficiently but only slightly faster not really noticeably so, maybe a few minutes. An electric water heater takes roughly 2 hrs to recover while a gas heater takes about 1 hour. A 50gal tank would be good for only 2 conservative showers one after another. The tank would roughly use 20-25 gal every 10 minutes, so two 10 min showers per heated full tank. If you turn the hot water spout down to a lower flow and adjust that with the cold then the water will last longer because the water is leaving the water heater at a slower rate. **Q: Will this work on other brands other than Rheem?** A: GE water heaters are made by Rheem ## Frequently Bought Together - Rheem SP10869MM Screw-In 240-volt by 4500-watt Element, Premium Resistored Stainless Steel,Small - RV Water Heater Element Wrench, Dual Anode Rod Hex Wrench Socket Removal Tool 1-1/16 in x 1-1/2 in x 6 in - Rheem SP10552MH Resistored HWD with Screw-In 240-volt/4500-watt Element --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/15033838-sp10869mm-screw-in-240-volt-by-4500-watt-element-premium](https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/15033838-sp10869mm-screw-in-240-volt-by-4500-watt-element-premium) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kuwait* *Store origin: KW* *Last updated: 2026-05-22*
