If this is not the case, the temperature may need to be increased. Contact your installer or Rinnai to discuss adjusting the temperature. No water from the hot tap? Restriction in the hot tap or failure of the cold water supply to the heater.
Gas booster flue terminals must be located in accordance with AS/NZS 5601 Fig 6.2 “Location of balanced flue terminals”. Rinnai HD units are fan assisted appliances and thus have lower clearances than a natural draft appliance of the same MJ rating.
AS/NZS 5601-2010 ‘Gas Installations’ stipulates a minimum horizontal clearance of 500mm between a building structure and obstruction facing the terminal. For Rinnai External continuous flow water heaters such a building structure must ‘obstruct’ the full front cover height of the appliance, or extend vertically above and below the front cover.
For minimum clearances not addressed above acceptance should be obtained from the Technical Regulator. Minimum clearances d and e also apply to any combustion air intake openings of appliances.

Not all heaters may fire up as its flow rate dependent. To verify all heaters are operational either open some outlets or, if this is not practical, close the cold water valve underneath the currently operating heaters to restrict the flow. Other heaters should then fire up. • Clean all filters on completion Rinnai Commercial Manifold Pack OIM...
Ring Main Pump • A secondary or building return pump may be installed in conjunction with the Rinnai Manifold Pack hot water system. Pump should be sized for minimal temperature loss around the ringmain. Pump must have a check valve on the discharge.
Rinnai Heavy Duty Units require a minimum of either 1.5 l/min or 2.4l/min (depending on which water heater is used) per heater before they can operate. If this is not achieved they will not fire. When there is an expected scenario that results in a lower flow per heater a staging system is required.
MANIFOLD PACK PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE Your Rinnai Continuous Flow water heaters have self diagnostic capability. If a fault occurs, an Error Code will flash on the status monitor or inbuilt controller. If you have Water Controllers, this assists with diagnosing the fault and may enable you to overcome a problem without a service call.
This may be indicated by Fault 10. Contact Rinnai Service. • Internal heaters may operate for a short period of time and then stop. This can be caused by Rinnai Co-axial flueing not being pushed together properly and exhaust gases are re-entering the inlet air. Check flue connections.
