plumbing demands.
Heat Water Only When You Need It.
Rinnai Tankless Water Heaters use natural gas or propane to heat water
only when needed. When water flow is detected, the unit begins
heating water as it passes through the copper heat exchanger. When
the demand for water ceases, the tankless unit shuts down, using no
gas or electricity while idle.
Because of its tankless design, the Rinnai unit captures up to 84% of
the heat energy, making it highly efficient and cost effective. With it
revolutionary advantage over inefficient tank-style heaters, the Rinnai
Luxury Series is more efficient when it’s on – and off when it’s off.
Space-Saving Design Fits Any Home Perfectly.
Whether you’re building a spacious new home – complete with
luxurious spa bath and body spray system – or remodeling an older
home, Luxury Series units can be used individually, in pairs, or in
banks of three or more to supply all your hot water needs. Place
interior-mount units in any room and vent directly to the outside,
saving up to 16 square feet of valuable floor space over a tank-style
water heater. Or install the unit on your home’s exterior with no
additional venting, using a recessed enclosure that can be painted
or textured to match your home’s construction.
