Cylinders should be installed in accordance with G12/AS1. For servicing and 

maintenance, please allow sufficient room for access to covers and valves.

Plumbing setup

Plumbing setup for a mains pressure stainless steel cylinder

Base requirements

Tanks should be installed on a flat level base of sufficient strength to support the weight of the 
water heater when full. 

The water heater must also be suitably restrained against seismic activity, ‘G12/AS1 Figure 14’ 
details an acceptable method of restraint.

Drip tray/catch pan (MUST be fitted)

The Rinnai warranty does not cover any consequential loss from leaks to the cylinder, so it’s 
important a suitably drained drip tray/catch pan is fitted as per AS/NZS 3500.4:2015 5.4 and  
G12/AS1 6.11.3.

Position of control

Make sure the control is in a position that is easily seen and accessible for the homeowner.

The appliance is not intended to be connected by a hose-set
