F E A T U R E S O F Y O U R N E W WATER HEATER

The Rinnai Water Heater is one of the most advanced water heaters available.

It supplies hot water continuously at the temperature preset in the unit or at the temperature set on the optional remote controller(s). Installation of remote controller(s) are recommended for optimum performance.

The Rinnai Water Heater never runs out of hot water. While electricity, water and gas

supplies are connected, the Rinnai Water Heater produces hot water whenever the hot tap is open.

The gas burner lights automatically when the hot water tap is opened, and goes out

when the tap is closed. Ignition is electronic, there is no pilot light. When the hot water tap is off, no gas is used. You save energy and money with the Rinnai Water Heater.

The temperature of the outgoing hot water is constantly monitored by a built in sensor. If

the temperature of the outgoing water rises to more than 6 degrees above the selected temperature (shown on the digital remote control) the gas burner will automatically go out. The gas burner will re-ignite once the outgoing hot water temperature falls below the selected temperature.

Built into the microprocessor of the Rinnai Water Heaters is the ability to LIMIT THE

MAXIMUM TEMPERATURE of the hot water supplied by the Rinnai Water Heaters. Without the connection of a remote controller(s), the Rinnai Water Heater is preset to deliver water at 120OF (Residential) and 140OF (Commercial).

Residential Unit: With the remote controller(s) the water temperature is adjustable from

98 to 140OF. The water temperature cannot be set to a temperature other than 120OF without the use of a remote controller unit.

Commercial Unit: With the remote controller the water temperature is adjustable up to

(cold water sandwich effect) when the water is off, then on again. This effect can be eliminated by installing the Rinnai Water Heater with a circulation loop with a small storage tank.

The sound (noise) level from the Rinnai Water Heater is very low.

The Rinnai Water Heater is a very compact direct vented device. It saves valuable oor

and wall space.

Always check water temperature by hand before entering the shower or bath. The temperature may have been changed.

The Rinnai Water Heater controls the water temperature automatically. To do this, it

sometimes needs to change the water ow accordingly. The water ow from the hot water

tap may vary after the selected temperature at the remote controller(s) is altered. The water

ow may also vary from summer to winter, as

incoming water temperatures differ.

Depending on the weather conditions and the length of the pipe between the Rinnai Water Heater and the tap in use, there may be a variation between the temperatures displayed at the remote controller(s) and the temperature of the water at the tap.

Do not clean remote controller(s) with solvents. Use a soft damp cloth.

Summer 60°F Incoming water

Winter 40°F Incoming water

The water temperature can only be adjusted between 98°F and 110°F when the hot water

The vent/air intake should be positioned away

from ammable materials, trees, shrubs, etc.

Do Not touch the unit cover or the flue outlet. Do Not insert objects into the flue outlet. On colder days steam may discharged from

Hot Water Is Dangerous, especially for the young and the elderly or

the inrm. The Rinnai Water Heater allows you to precisely control the

temperature of your hot water, ensuring safe hot water temperatures.

Water Temperatures over 125°F can cause severe burns instantly or death from scalds.

Hot Water can cause rst degree burns with

exposure for as little as:

3 seconds at 140 °F 20 seconds at 130 °F 8 minutes at 120 °F

Test the temperature of the water with your elbow before placing a child in the bath or shower.

Do not leave a child or an inrm person in

the bath unsupervised.

CONTROLLERS SET PATTERN/TEMPERATURE TABLES

Temperature controllers allows precise temperature control by the user. When used correctly,

the hot water unit will deliver the selected temperature, even when the water ow is varied,

or more than one tap is in use. Each Temperature Controller can be individually programmed, however the water heater unit can only deliver one set temperature at any time. The available temperatures (OF) are as follows:

Temperature Table by Models

Suggested temperatures are:

Kitchen 120OF, Shower 98OF - 110OF, Bath ll 102OF - 114OF

These temperatures are suggestions only. You may nd higher or lower temperatures more comfortable. Maintaining lower temperatures helps save energy. To obtain water temperatures lower than 98OF, simply add cold water.

Deluxe Controllers are an optional extra. ‘Controller’ and ‘Deluxe’ Controllers can be installed together. Controllers allow temperature selection only. ‘Deluxe’ Controllers have temperature selection, bath

ll and clock functions.

Controllers allow the water temperature to be set from the various locations where they are installed. The temperature selected will be available to all outlets. Below are the combination of Controllers that are offered by Rinnai:

MAINTENANCE SUGGESTIONS

This water heater has been designed and constructed for a long performance life when installed and operated properly under normal conditions. Regular inspections, as outlined in this section, are strongly recommended

as a means of keeping your heater operating efciently.

Consideration should be given to periodic maintenance of scale removal in applications where the water hardness quality is elevated and the water heater runs for extended periods such as in commercial applications or applications with circulating loops.

1. Cleaning

The water heater should be cleaned annually. Keep the water heater clear of dust and debris especially in and around burner. Cleaning procedures for the Rinnai Water Heaters are as follows:

1) Turn off and disconnect electrical power. Allow to cool for one hour.

2) Remove the Front Panel by removing screws. See parts breakdown on panels.

3) Use pressurized air to remove dust from around main burner.

4) Use soft dry cloth to wipe cabinet.

DO NOT DAMAGE OR DISTORT ANY PARTS OF HEATER.

DO NOT USE WET CLOTH OR SPRAY CLEANERS ON BURNER.

2. Visual check of main burner ames.

The burner must ame evenly over the entire surface when operating correctly. The ame must burn with a clear, blue, stable ame. See the parts

breakdown of the burner for the location of view ports. Any and all parts removed for inspection or service must be replaced before operating the unit.

The ame pattern should be as shown in the

following Figures.

* VENT MAINTENANCE * VENT SYSTEM

TROUBLE SHOOTING AND COMMON QUESTIONS

- I don't have any hot water when I open the tap!

- Make sure there is gas, water and electricity to the Rinnai Water Heater

(the power is turned on and the gas is turned on)

- When I was using the hot water, the water got cold!

- If you adjusted the ow from the tap to lessen it, you may have gone below the minimum

ow required. The Rinnai Water Heater requires a minimum ow rate to operate (see specication page for ow rate of your unit). If you mix the water with a tap and attempt

to get a temperature well below the temperature being controlled by the unit, it may drop

the ow below the desired minimum ow rate. Decrease the temperature supplied by the Rinnai Water Heaters at the remote control or increase your total ow.

- White smoke comes out of the exhaust!

- During colder weather when the exhaust temperature is hotter than the air, the exhaust

fumes condense producing white steam.

- When I open a hot tap. I do not immediately get hot water!

- Hot water must travel through your plumbing from the Rinnai Water Heater to the faucet.

The time period for hot water to reach your xture is determined by the amount of water in your plumbing system between your water heater and the xture, water pressure, ow rate of xture in use, etc.

- After I turn off the hot water tap, the fan on the Rinnai Water Heaters continues to run!

- The fan is designed to be on for 65 seconds after the ow of water stops.This is to ensure

constant water temperatures during rapid starting and stopping, as well as exhausting any

residual gas ue products from the unit.

FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE OPERATING

If you do not follow these instructions

exactly, a fire or explosion may result causing property damage, personal injury or loss of life.

A. This appliance does not have a pilot. It is

equipped with a direct ignition device which automatically lights the burner. Do not try to light the burner by hand.

B. BEFORE OPERATING: Smell all around the

appliance area for gas. Be sure to smell next

to the oor because some gas is heavier than air and will settle on the oor.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS

Do not try to light any appliance.

•

Do not touch any electric switch, do not

•

use any phone in your building.

Immediately call your gas supplier from a

•

neighbor’s phone. Follow the gas supplier’s instructions. If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call

•

the re department.

C. Use only your hand to operate remote control

keypad. Never use tools. If the remote keypad doesn’t work, do not try to repair

it, call a qualied service technician. Force or attempted repair may result in a re or

explosion.

D. Do not use this appliance if any part has

been under water. Immediately call a

IMPORTANT!

With electrical power supplied to a Rinnai water heater, it will not freeze in environments as cold as -30ºF, when protected from direct wind exposure.

In the event of a power failure at temperatures below freezing, the water heater should be drained of all water to prevent freezing damage.

The unit may be drained manually, or through the installation of the Optional solenoid valves as shown shown.

The electrical connections for the two solenoid valves should be tied to the 120V power terminals provided on the PCB of the water heater.

When the electrical power to the water heater fails, the 3/4" solenoid valve closes (stopping the flow of water into the heater) and the 1/2" solenoid valve opens (allowing the water heater and associated piping to drain. Insure that you run the drain for the solenoids to the outside environment to prevent discharging water inside the building, causing water damage.

Freeze Protection

If the Rinnai Water Heater is disconnected from either the electrical supply or gas supply, or if there is an error that prevents the water heater from functioning normally, there is NO FREEZE PROTECTION. Freeze protection of the water heater is only possible when electricity, gas supply and normal water heater functions are enabled. If you expect freezing conditions while either electricity or gas supply is interrupted, water must be completely drained from water heater.

This water heater and venting system is designed to withstand temperatures to as low as -30OF, so long as electricity and gas are supplied to the product and normal water heater functions are enabled. If either gas or electricity is interrupted NO FREEZE PROTECTION is available.

The installation of auto drain down solenoid valves is optional. However, Rinnai strongly recommends that these valves be installed to prevent damage from freezing in case the normal freeze protection should become disabled. If the valves are not installed then any product damage due to freezing will not be covered by the warranty.

Climate conditions can dictate special applications. Please refer to local codes before installing product.

Gas Piping Notes

1) A manual gas control valve must be placed upon the gas supply line to the Rinnai Water Heaters. A union can be used on the connection above the shut off valve for the future servicing or disconnection of the unit.

2) Check the type of gas and the gas inlet pressure before connecting the Rinnai Water Heaters if the Rinnai Water Heaters is not of the gas type that the building is supplied with, DO NOT connect the water heater. Contact the dealer for the proper unit to match the gas type.

3) Minimum and Maximum Gas pressures are listed below:

* Minimum value is for input adjustment

Natural Gas: Minimum 6" WC Propane Gas: Minimum 10"WC Maximum 10.5" WC Maximum 13.5" WC

Conversion of this unit from natural gas to propane or propane to natural gas

CANNOT be done in the eld.

4) After completion of gas pipe connections, all joints including the heater must be checked for gas-tightness by means of leak detector solution, soap and water, or an equivalent

nonammable solution, as applicable.

Since some leak test solutions, including soap and water, may cause corrosion or stress cracking, the piping must be rinsed with water after testing, unless it has been determined that the leak solution is non-corrosive.

5) The Rinnai Water Heaters must be leak tested before it is placed into operation.

6) The Rinnai Water Heaters and its individual shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system when pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures greater than 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).

7) Always use approved connectors to connect the unit to the gas line. Always purge the gas line of any debris before connection to the water heater.

8) The Rinnai Water Heaters must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing it's individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).

9) The Rinnai Water Heaters Installation location must provide adequate Combustion and

Ventilation airow.

Water Piping Notes

1) A manual water control valve must be placed upon the water inlet connection to the Rinnai Water Heater before it is connected to the water line. Unions may be used on both the hot/ cold water supply lines, for the future servicing or disconnection of the unit.

2) All soldering materials and piping must be compatible with potable water.

3) Purge the water line to remove from it all debris and air. Debris will damage the Rinnai Water Heaters.

4) There is a wire mesh strainer on the Rinnai Water Heater’s inlet to discourage the introduction of debris to the unit. It will need to be cleaned periodically. DO NOT operate

unit without lter in place. Clean this lter before leaving the job site.

DO NOT reverse the inlet and outlet (cold and hot water) connections on the unit. This would cause the Rinnai to operate dangerously or not at all.

IN S TA L L ER ’S IN S TA LL AT I O N I NS TR UC TI ON S

Pressure Relief Valve

1) ANSI code calls for the addition of an approved pressure relief valve to all water heating systems.

The pressure relief valve must meet the following criteria: The relief valve must comply with the

2) standard for Relief Valves and Automatic Gas Shutoff Devices for Hot Water Supply Systems ANSI Z21. 22 and/or the standard CAN1-4.4 Temperature, Pressure, Temperature and Pressure Relief Valves and Vacuum Relief Valves. This relief valve must be rated up to 150 PSI of pressure.

3) The relief valve should be added to the hot water outlet line per manufacturer's instructions. DO NOT place any other type valve or shut off device between the relief valve and the hot water heater.

4) The discharge from the pressure relief valve should be piped to the ground or into a drain system to prevent exposure or possible burn hazards to humans or other plant or animal life. Water discharged from the relief valve could cause severe burns instantly, scalds and/or death.

5) Do not plug the relief valve and do not install any reducing ttings or other restrictions in the relief

line. The relief line should allow for complete drainage of the valve and the line.

6) If a relief valve discharges periodically, this may be due to thermal expansion in a closed water supply system. Contact the water supplier or local plumbing inspector on how to correct this situation. Do not plug the relief valve.

7) Pressure relief valve must be manually operated once a year to check for correct operation.

Caution: See Item 4 before manually operating relief valve.

Should overheating occur or the gas supply fail to shut off, turn off the manual gas valve on
