Frequently Asked Questions
Why choose Rinnai over other tankless brands?
Rinnai brings over 100 years of Japanese manufacturing excellence to tankless water heating. They're known for exceptional build quality, long-term reliability, and outstanding customer support. While Rinnai models may cost slightly more than some competitors, they deliver superior durability and performance over their 20+ year lifespan. Many contractors prefer Rinnai for challenging installations because their units consistently perform well in demanding conditions.
What is Control-R and how does it work?
Control-R is Rinnai's WiFi control module that provides smartphone control, remote monitoring, usage tracking, and diagnostic alerts. You can adjust temperature settings, view energy consumption, receive maintenance reminders, and troubleshoot issues from the Control-R app. It's particularly useful for vacation homes or monitoring multiple properties. The module is available as an add-on for most Rinnai models.
How does Rinnai compare to Navien?
Rinnai and Navien are both excellent brands with different strengths. Rinnai offers slightly higher build quality and has a longer track record (100+ years vs Navien's 40+ years). Navien typically includes features like recirculation pumps built-in, while Rinnai offers them as accessories. Efficiency is comparable (both achieve 0.95+ UEF). Rinnai excels in commercial applications and extreme-demand situations, while Navien offers better value with more included features. We can recommend the best fit for your specific needs.
