FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Congratulations on purchasing the Rinnai Instantaneous water heating system.
• The appliance NEVER RUNS OUT of hot water. Whilst water and gas supplies are connected and available and
battery power is available, hot water is delivered whenever hot water taps are open.
• The appliance is compact, saving both wall and floor space.
• The burner lights automatically when the hot water tap is opened, and goes out when the tap is closed.
IGNITION IS ELECTRONIC rather than by pilot light for optimum reliability and minimum running costs. When
the hot water tap is closed no gas is used.
• The appliance has a very high gas combustion efficiency minimising gas consumption an d operating cost.
• Operating noise level is very low.
Unlike most other instantaneous water heaters, this model is fitted with a battery powered electronic ignition and
microprocessor control module offering unique benefits as follows:
• Electronic ignition rather than ignition by pilot light ensures optimum reliability and minimum running costs as no
gas is used when the hot water tap is closed.
• The water temperature and gas flow are microprocessor controlled offering superior performance.
• Battery power ensures optimum reliability and eliminates the need for a mains power supply and associated
costs.
Unlike most other instantaneous water heaters, this appliance also has a modern state of the art flue design for
reliable operation even under high wind conditions.
