Questions and answers
Hi there I have a rinnai rea+a2626wb+50+ak hot water service but I’m currently in a blackout. Is there anyway to start the hot water service without electricity? Thanks
No, the Rinnai Infinity 26 hot water service cannot operate without electricity during a blackout. However, it can be powered temporarily using a UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply).
