commercial solutions –

	Where the demands are greatest,

	

Rinnai delivers.

Nearly 100 years ago, we at Rinnai established a tradition of never settling for
less than the absolute best—a tradition that has grown even stronger today.
Leveraging decades of global commercial water heating experience, Rinnai
Tankless Water Heaters deliver performance and reliability. Precision
engineering allows Rinnai Tankless Water Heaters to produce an endless
supply of hot water to suit even the most demanding applications—from
restaurants to hotels to multifamily residences to schools and more—
conserving energy that can save thousands of dollars in capital, operational
and life cycle costs, while providing redundancy and saving space.
But it’s not just performance that sets us apart. Our commitment to safety,
quality and support has made us the #1 selling tankless brand in the U.S.
and Canada.
From products to service and everything in-between, our dedication to
delivering our absolute best never wavers. We’re stronger than ever, so that
your confidence in choosing Rinnai can be too.

Peak efficiency

is about working less—
	
not more.

How Condensing Technology Works
Condensing appliances use the latent heat of exhaust
to preheat incoming cold water. The colder the
inlet water, the higher the efficiency and the more
condensate is generated.

Plus, as a part of our Tankless Rack System,

So they’re working less—using minimal

How Modulation works
The chart below demonstrates the efficiency that a fully
modulating tankless system can provide. The chart generally
shows the gas usage of a traditional boiler compared to
that of a Rinnai Tankless Water Heater.* Peaks represent the
tankless unit meeting user demands, and valleys represent
saved energy in between.

As reliable
	

AS THE DAY IS LONG.

Precision-engineered Rinnai Tankless Water
Heaters provide an endless supply of hot water,
without interruption, day in and day out. Rinnai
quality is manufactured rock-solid reliable—you
can safely stake your reputation on it.
Use Rinnai Tankless Water Heaters with or
without a storage tank, or bank multiple units
together in the Rinnai Tankless Rack System
for the added benefit of modulating technology
and redundancy.
When one unit is down, another takes over so
that your hot water supply never runs dry, and
your operation doesn’t miss a beat.

Rinnai Tankless Water Heater Case Studies
Courthouse Demands

National Full-Service Restaurant Chain

Situation:

Situation:

• Multiple showers, sinks, washing machines
and kitchen appliances used at once

• Conducted a one-year study to compare tankstyle water heaters to tankless water heaters
in six restaurants across America

• Peak usage hours with high demand; other
periods of time with low use
• E xisting system was 2M BTU condensing
boiler and 725-gallon storage tank
Results:
• Installed an interior Rinnai Tankless Rack
System rated 1.2M BTU with Rinnai’s
Common Vent system
•F
 ully modulating system with a 78:1 turn-down
ratio capable of meeting fluctuating demand
•O
 perated only when needed, saving energy
during low demand
•E
 xperienced less than two hours of downtime
in the transition

• One restaurant from each region installed a
Rinnai Tankless Rack System with four tankless
units, while another from each region installed a
tank-style water heater
Results:
• On average, gas usage was approximately
21% less with tankless
•E
 ach of the three restaurants who used
tankless saw an average energy savings
of $5,820 for the year
• With 1,100 locations nationwide, using Rinnai
Tankless Water Heaters could save this chain
as much as $6.4 million a year

Multi-Family Residence

Middle School Comparison

Situation:

Situation:

• High-demand multi-family project with 63 units

• Two schools with similar hot water
system designs

• Existing system included two large boilers at
500K BTU each and a 270-gallon storage tank
Results:
• Installed an exterior Rinnai Tankless Rack System
(six tankless water heaters) rated at 1.2M BTU
• Installation on rooftop took only a half day
and was less expensive than what was
originally specified

• One outfitted with tank-style water heaters
and one with Rinnai Tankless Water Heaters
Results:
• Rinnai Tankless Water Heaters saved 5.2 to
6.4 cents* per gallon of water used compared
to tank-style units
• Potential annual savings of $1,400
• Energy consumption reduced by more than
70% compared to tank-style units

•M
 aneuverability: Fits, fully assembled, through standard 32-inch doorways
and on elevators
•T
 RS racks come with two to six tankless units per rack, which can be combined
for up to 25 tankless water heaters and provide up to 4.9 million BTU
• Wall-mount or freestanding; outdoors or indoors
• Corrosion-resistant, marine-grade aluminum is strong, but lightweight
• Value engineered from the start—from installation to energy savings
•M
 odulation technology with turn-down ratios of up to 327:1 to ensure hot
water delivery and efficiency

Common venting.

	The epitome of
		
streamlined installation.
With Rinnai Common Venting (CVent), up to eight TWH units share the same
CVent system—which means significantly fewer wall or roof cuts, less labor, and
longer vent lengths than ever possible with single-unit TWH venting. The system
is also fully CSA-certified and uses polypropylene (PPtl)—a more reliable venting
material for the job, able to withstand exhaust temperatures up to 230° F.

Clean, easy, cost-saving install:
• Vent lengths up to 100' with seven TWH units; 41' with eight TWH units
• Easy lock-and-fit joints—no cement or glue required
• Non-return valve prevents backflow of exhaust gases into idle tankless water heaters
• In-line or back-to-back installations; horizontal or vertical termination
• More options than ever before for indoor or outdoor installs
• Reduces wall penetrations

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS.

	

And helpful answers.

Q: What kind of applications are best suited for Rinnai Tankless Water Heating 			
	 Commercial Solutions?
A: R
 innai Tankless Water Heaters are perfectly suited for virtually any commercial application.
Customers of all sizes and configurations in multi-family, hospitality, healthcare, education,
food service, retail and more trust Rinnai to deliver an endless, efficient supply of hot water.

Q: What types of products can the Rinnai Tankless Rack System replace?
A: The flexibility and capability of the TRS allows it to replace just about any existing water heating
product, from domestic boilers to traditional tank-style water heaters, so long as the necessary
gas, venting and installation requirements are present. In fact, the modular design can handle
up to 4.9M BTU. And even in cases where demands are smaller, Rinnai Tankless Water Heaters
can provide significantly more energy efficiency and reliability than tank-style water heaters.

Q: Can I use a storage tank with Rinnai Tankless Water Heating Commercial Solutions?
	 Do I need one?
A: Rinnai Tankless Water Heaters are designed to achieve peak efficiency and performance
without the use of a storage tank. Because they only operate on-demand, they use
far less energy than tank-style water heaters. However, they can be used in conjunction
with a storage tank to suit the needs of a specific application. Please consult with Rinnai’s
Application Engineering group to determine the best solution for your project.

Q: Can I use a recirculation line with Rinnai Tankless Water Heaters?
A: When continuous, on-demand hot water is needed, our tankless units work very well with a
recirculation pump. Plus, the modulating technology and minimum fire rating of the Rinnai
Tankless Rack System enables it to maintain consistent temperature in a return line with
limited waste, only using the energy necessary to keep the line heated when required.
	
Please note that all tankless water heater installations are different.
Contact a trained Rinnai installer to learn more about sizing and custom solutions.
