Consideraon of care for your boiler should
include evaluaon of water quality.
The water must be potable, free of
corrosive chemicals, sand, dirt, or other
contaminants.
It is up to the installer to ensure the
water does not contain corrosive
chemicals or elements that can aect or
damage the boiler.
Water that contains chemicals
exceeding the levels below can damage
the boiler.

When choosing an installaon locaon, you
must ensure that clearances will be met and
that the vent length will be within required
limits. Consider the installaon
environment, water quality, and need for
freeze protecon. Requirements for the gas
line, water lines, electrical connecon, and
condensate disposal can be found in their
respecve installaon secons in this
manual.
This secon provides informaon on the
importance of water quality to the Rinnai
Condensing Boiler. The informaon is
intended to serve as general guidelines only
and is not a complete list of water quality
guidelines.
Unsuitable heang system water can cause
the formaon of scale or sludge, which
aects system eciency. It can also cause
corrosion and reduce life of the heat
exchanger.
Never use water that has been treated by a
reverse osmosis, deionized, or dislled
water to soen the water to ll the heang
system.
For Domesc Hot Water systems, if you
install the boiler in an area that is known to
have hard water or that causes scale build-
up, the water must be treated and may
require a more frequent ushing schedule.
Scale build-up is caused by hard water and
can be accelerated if the boiler is set at a
high temperature. Rinnai oers
Southeastern Filtraons ScaleCuer Water
Condioning Systemthat oers superior
lime scale prevenon and corrosion control
by feeding a blend of control compounds
into the cold water supply.
Oxygen permeable or rubber tubing is not
permied in the heang system unless it is
separated from the boiler by a plate heat
exchanger.
Thoroughly ush the system prior to lling.
While ushing, isolate the boiler.
Do not introduce any system cleaner into
the boiler. Flush the system thoroughly to
remove all system cleaner before lling the
boiler with water.
When freeze protecon of the heang
system is desired, only use Rinnai-approved
anfreezes. The allowed maximum
concentraon is 40%.

Replacement of components due to
water quality damage is not covered by
the warranty.

Use this checklist to ensure you have selected the correct locaon for the boiler.
Air surrounding the boiler, venng, and vent terminaon(s) is used for combuson and must be
free of any compounds that cause corrosion of internal components. These include corrosive
compounds that are found in aerosol sprays, detergents, bleaches, cleaning solvents, oil based
paints/varnishes, and refrigerants. The air in beauty shops, dry cleaning stores, photo processing
labs, and storage areas for pool supplies oen contains these compounds. The boiler, venng, and
vent terminaon(s) should not be installed in any areas where the air may contain these corrosive
compounds.

The boiler locaon complies with the required clearances.
The planned combuson air and exhaust terminaon locaons meet the required clearances.
The water supply does not contain chemicals or exceed total hardness that will damage the
heat exchanger.
A standard 3 prong 120 VAC, 60 Hz properly grounded wall outlet or other 120 VAC, 60 Hz
source is available.
The installaon must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the

Securely screw the top and boom
brackets into the wall, making sure
the screws are ush with the wall.
Use any of the holes in the top
and boom brackets.
Make sure the securing method is
sucient to support the weight of
the boiler. Refer to the boiler
weight in secon “3.4
Specicaonsof this manual.
The boiler must be installed in an
upright and level posion. Do not
install the boiler upside down or on
its side.
IMPORTANT
The condensate collector must be lled with
water prior to installing the vent system.
Pour approximately 10 ounces (1.25 cups) of
water directly into the boilers exhaust port
(do not remove the 2 in. PVC adapter prior to
this).
Before operaon of the boiler, the
condensate collector must be lled with
water. This is to prevent the potenal of
exhaust gasses from entering the building.
Failure to ll the condensate collector could
result in severe personal injury or death.
