 Minimum flow may vary slightly depending on the temperature setting and the inlet water temperature. Minimum activation flow is 0.4 GPM (1.5 L/min) (0.26 

GPM (1.0 L/min) for RE199 and RE180).

The maximum gas supply pressure must not exceed the value specified by the manufacturer. 

Rinnai products are continually being updated and improved; therefore, specifications are subject to change without prior notice.

Table 2: Specifications

Minimum water pressure: 20 PSI (Recommended 30-80 PSI for maximum performance)

 

Maximum water pressure: 150 PSI
