Continuous Flow Water Heater Operation Manual

General Information
The flow will
vary slightly depending on the incoming water temperature
and temperature selected. For example the w
ater flow will be higher at
43 °C than at 55 °C.
There is also a minimum flow
r
ate required for the continuous flow unit
to start. So if a hot water tap is only opened a fraction there ma
y not be
enough flow to start the unit.
43°C
55°C
The Rinnai continuous flow
water heaters are factory preset to a
temperature limit of 55 °C (ex
cluding one commercial model - Infini
ty
HD200 external).
Temperature controllers are av
ailable to allow precise digital tempe
rature
control—a great safety feature if you have young children. Controllers can
be fitted at a
ny time (except in solar installations) after installation of the
hot water unit.
There is a recommended system lay
out for Rinnai continuous flow
water
heaters used in solar installations. It is important y
our installer configures
your solar system correctly as water heaters in solar installations produce
higher than normal temperatures.
Rinnai w
ater controllers cannot be used with Rinnai continuous flow
water heaters in solar installations as the hot water does not always pass
through the continuous flow unit.
