Never run out of hot water. The Rinnai Tankless Water Heater.
The Rinnai tankless hot water heater is an energy-efficient water heating
system using a gas-powered heat exchanger to heat water. Compact tankless technology heats water only as needed when water flow is detected. Result: Endless hot water. Unlike traditional tank systems, the Rinnai system delivers hot
water to multiple water sources simultaneously at a constant user-set temperature.
Rinnai Tankless vs Traditional Tank Systems
The Rinnai tankless
water heater produces and supplies endless streams of hot
water to multiple outlets simultaneously without any fluctuation
in temperature.
"Rinnai tankless hot water system revolutionizes the way
modern homes meet their hot water needs."
The Rinnai tankless water heater is a multiple point of use, gasfired
water heater that only heats water when it senses a
demand from an open water source. Unlike antiquated water
tanks that constantly store and reheat water, the Rinnai tankless
water heater shuts off automatically when the water source tap
is closed, providing its users with significant energy cost savings.
Whereas 40-gallon tanks require 16 sq. ft. of floor space and
usually last around 10 years, Rinnai is a compact wall mounted
unit with a life expectancy of approximately 20 years. Because
Rinnai does not require a tank, the risk of tank-type water
heater ruptures is eliminated.
Rinnai tankless water heaters can be set to operate at exact
user-specifiable temperatures via the digital and easy-to-use
control pad placed in multiple locations of a home. This is an
extremely important feature in households with small children
and elderly individuals to help prevent scalding accidents.
Rinnai provides never-ending hot water to households 24 hours
a day at the rate of up to 8.5 gallons per minute. This unique
feature allows homeowners the luxury of using multiple hot
water sources at once without any loss of temperature
consistency. Because Rinnai is not limited by capacity, as are
typical 50 and 75 gallon tanks, today's 70+ gallon bathtubs can
be filled again and again without penalizing the other hot water
needs in the home. Homes with a Rinnai tankless water heater
can run a washing machine, dishwasher and shower
simultaneously without worrying about hot water running out at
any source.
Rinnai also offers flexibility in its wall-mounted locations. Should
the user prefer to mount the unit indoors, it safely uses no
indoor make-up air and vents directly to the atmosphere.
However, a unique advantage of Rinnai is its ability to be
mounted on the exterior of a house, completely removing a
combustible device from the home and freeing up valuable floorspace.
Additionally, the unit can be mounted in a recessed box,
flush-mounted and painted or textured to match the façade of
the home.
Unlike old technology water tanks that heat and reheat the same
water 24 hours a day, Rinnai's tankless water heater is more efficient because it only heats water when it is needed.
When a
water source is opened, Rinnai senses the demand for hot water
flow and starts the heating process. The water flows through a
heat exchanger and is heated to the designated temperature set
by the user.
The Rinnai system uses the feedback from a water flow sensor
to adjust the fully modulating gas valve, giving users a
consistent water temperature for any duration. When the water
source tap is closed, Rinnai automatically shuts off until hot
water is demanded again. No standing pilot light means no
standby losses.
