Vanguard Model No. 6E743A 120v 3.5 Range, Part VR8304P 4256 24 volts, is the part we need for our hotwater heater. Where can we get this part? and what is the cost of it?

This requires a little math....

BTU - amount of heat it takes to raise one pound of water 1 degree F.

I gallon of water = about 8.54 pounds

91 gallons of water = about 777 pounds = 777 pounds x 70 degree rise = 54,390 BTU.

1 Therm (what the gas company measuers in) is 100,000 btus

1 therm costs about $.45 (45 cents) depending on where you are

54,390/100,000 x $.45 = about $.25 per hour

This cost can vary somewhat depending on the inlet water temperature, gas cost, and the efficiency of the hot water heater

Hello abcd. Vanguard appears to be manufactured by Rjheem
Rheem promotes that their products require specialized 'resistorized' elements or 'all copper' elements to portion larger brand-specific sales in their pocket and for no other reason.

1) Buy 3600 watt element. Nothing special needed:
Copy following link to identify type of element:
