General warranty terms

Rinnai reserves the right to

notice.

For the purposes of the Consumer 

Guarantees Act 1993, Rinnai only 

guarantees the availability of repair

If the Rinnai iHeat central heating

any consumer rights or guarantees 

that may apply under the 

Consumer Guarantees Act 1993. 

If the product is being acquired 

for the purposes of a business, 

the provisions of the Consumer 

Guarantees Act 1993 do not apply 

and no other warranties (either 

express or implied by law) apart 

from those stated in this warranty 

apply.

Warranty terms and conditions

All terms of this warranty are 

effective from the date of 

installation. The attending service 

person reserves the right to verify 

this date.

All Rinnai appliances must 

be installed, commissioned, 

serviced, repaired and removed 

in accordance with the 

manufacturer’s instructions, local 

regulations, and municipal building 

codes by persons authorised by 

local regulations to do so.

All appliances must be operated 

and maintained in accordance 

with the manufacturer’s operating 

instructions.

The warranty applies only to the 

components supplied by Rinnai. 

It does not apply to components 

supplied by others, such as, 

isolating valves, electrical switches, 

pipe work, electrical cables, fuses, 

and where applicable components 

supplied by others, but not limited 

to these.

Where the appliance has not 

been sited in accordance with the 

installation instructions or installed 

such that normal service access is 

difficult, a service charge will apply.

service person the installation 

is deemed illegal or access is 

dangerous, service will be refused. 

Any work required to gain access 

to the appliance will be chargeable 

by the attending service person 

(for example, removal of walls, or 

the use of special equipment to 

move components, but not limited 

to these).

Where a failed component is 

replaced under warranty, the 

balance of the original appliance 

warranty will remain effective. The 

replacement part or appliance 

does not carry a new warranty.

Rinnai reserve the right to transfer 

functional components from 

defective appliances if they are 

suitable.

Rinnai reserve the right to have the 

installed product returned to the
