Frequently Asked Questions
What's included with this Chromalox RLS-2457H kit?
Each boxed kit contains the 4500W heating element, a gasket, and the mounting bracket needed to install it, matching what is boxed and labeled by Chromalox and shown unpacked in these photos.
Is the RLS-2457H the same part as the LS-2457?
The box label reads Cat. No. RLS-2457H and shows no second number. Our catalog has long carried this element as identical to replacement part number LS-2457, so if you are shopping under that number this is the part we ship - but check the LS-2457 cross-reference against your own paperwork if the number matters to your job.
Is this element new?
Yes. These are New, factory sealed in the original Chromalox box. One unit was opened for these photos so you can see the gasket, mounting bracket, and hardware packed inside.
Can I buy just one?
Yes. These are sold each, with six kits in stock right now, so you can order exactly the count your repair calls for, New and sealed, ready to install. This item clears the free-shipping line on its own, and orders leave our Idaho warehouse the same or next business day.
A water heater element does its job unseen, coiled inside a tank, quietly turning cold mornings into hot showers. Swap in this Chromalox and get back to not thinking about your water heater at all.
