Description of the boiler
The Rinnai Q boiler is a room sealed, condensing
and modulating central heating boiler. The Q175C
has an integrated domestic hot water feature.
The boiler is provided with a integrated control
system. Because an outdoor sensor is connected
to the boiler, the boiler works weather dependantly.
This means that the boiler control measures the
outside temperature and ow temperature. With
this data the boiler calculates the optimal ow
temperature for the installation.
When the boiler is connected to an RS100 room
thermostat information can be retrieved from the
boiler. For more information about the Rinnai
thermostats. Please refer to the user manuals.
RS100
On the bottom left side of the front panel there is a
small door. Through the transparent panel you can
see the boiler status on the display. After opening
this door you will nd the function buttons.
