CERTIFICATION
Certified by the Australian Gas Association (AGA) For use only with Rinnai internal continuous flow water heaters.
GENERAL
1.These instructions only apply to the Rinnai FF water heater coaxial flueing system. This flue system utilises pipe components with an aluminium inner pipe and a white plastic outer pipe.
These instructions DO NOT apply to older Rinnai water heater flueing that has either a stainless steel single skin or stainless steel coaxial construction. If in doubt contact Rinnai.
2.Before commencing installation, please read the 'Installation Instructions - General', located inside a pouch behind the front cover of all Rinnai water heater models. The Rinnai internal water heater range must only be installed with Rinnai water heater flueing as referred to in these instructions.
3.The requirements of the current AS5601/AG601 and local authorities must be met, which is the installers responsibility.
4.The required clearances of Rinnai internal continuous flow water heater when installed as a single unit are shown in Fig.1A. The appliances are certified to be installed side by side as shown on page 7, allowing a minimum distance between flues as follows:
•270mm between horizontal terminals.
•160mm between vertical cowls.
5.Rinnai internal continuous flow water heaters fitted with FF flue systems are room sealed as defined in AS5601. No ventilation in the space where the water heater is installed is required.
6.The outer plastic section of the coaxial flue complies with temperature hazard requirements and can be installed with zero clearance to combustible material.
