GENERAL INSTALLATION INFORMATION

Rinnai 9 RHFE0800F_1000_1500 IM

FRAMING DIMENSIONS

Framework of the installation must conform to local building codes. Non-combustible materials need not be used.

If the appliance is elevated from the ground within the structure, a base must be constructed using suitable material

with supporting joists capable of supporting a minimum of 1.5 times the weight of the appliance.

CAUTION

AS/NZS 5601 “GAS INSTALLATIONS” requires that ue components be supported independently

of the appliance.

For the following framing dimensions it is important to be aware that the studs are o󰀨set—the cavity needs to be

framed based on the centreline of the glass, not the opening size.

Base Board and Cut-outs

To ensure everything lines up and ts properly, it is recommended that on the base the following dimensions are

pencilled; glass centreline, unit depth centreline, feet position, gas and room thermistor cut-outs.

* Assumes 10mm plasterboard / All dimensions in mm RHFE0800F RHFE1000 RHFE1500

D Support feet centres - right glass of centreline 360 460 710

E Gas supply / thermistor access - from front of enclosure* 77 77 77

CAVITY VENTILATION

Ventilation of at least 2000 mm² is required in the cavity ideally below the base of the heater engine. This is to

provide room air at ambient room temperature to the re thermistor located in the base of the heater engine.

Ventilation can be via a vent or an open toe kick at the base of the cavity, however it MUST be in the same room

and wall cavity as the heater.

Additionally the top of the cavity needs to be ventilated into the room or another space. This ventilation opening

MUST be at least 2000 mm². This opening is to prevent heat build-up within the cavity, which if left unventilated

could potentially cause damage to wall surfaces or coverings and / or cause the appliance to cut out.

ADDITIONAL FRAMING NOTES

Plaster board is set 1 mm back from the front edge of the frame to allow for a slim edge plaster nish.

To ensure the appliance performs correctly, without rattling, the heater engine MUST be installed on a at level

support base.

IMPORTANT

Issues caused by rattling res not installed on a at level base, as detailed in this guide, will NOT

be covered by warranty.

GENERAL INFORMATION

NOTE

Accessing the commissioning instructions installed in the bottom of the unit will not normally

occur during installation, which is why the instructions are detailed in this section of the manual.

For servicing and maintenance purposes the commissioning instructions are also included in the

service manual. The location of the commissioning instruction pouch within the appliance is as

follows:

RHFE1500 - Located to the right hand side of the gas control

RHFE0800F/1000 - Located tucked in behind the Wi-Fi module

WARNING

When performing the commissioning, the appliance electrical power will need to be connected.

Exercise CAUTION as there is potential for electric shock from the exposed wiring and circuitry.

DO NOT leave the appliance unattended when power is connected and the panels are removed.

Installation and commissioning must be carried out by an Authorised person.

Wiring inside this appliance may be at 240V potential.

DO NOT test for gas escapes with an open ame.

IMPORTANT

LS - Gas Fireplace heaters have two dipswitch settings for ue length.

L-F (Long Flue) this is the factory set default and in general will not require alteration.

S-F (Short Flue) refer to service manual or contact Rinnai for further details.

During commissioning the plastic push buttons on the PCB are required to be pressed to make

adjustments. DO NOT use mechanical items such as screwdrivers to depress these button as

this may lead to breakage.

GAS PRESSURE SETTING

IMPORTANT

The LS - Gas Fireplace heaters come with the high and low operating pressures factory pre-set.

Gas Supply and Burner pressures checked during installation and prior to the MUST BE

installation of the burn media. This is to be done with the glass o󰀨 and before the burn media*

is added. Make adjustments if the unit is not operating correctly after all other possible other

causes have been eliminated.

Inlet supply pressure to the appliance be checked and set within the operating parameters MUST

of the appliance in all instances. If the appliance cannot be adjusted to perform correctly contact

Rinnai for advice.

Conrm gas type: this appliance available in either Natural or Propane gas, check labelling on top

panel to verify gas type. Contact local gas authority to conrm gas supply type if you are in doubt.

* For heaters tted with the Flametech® burner media (models RHFE0800SF/DF), the two large

logs supplied with the burn media are also the main burners for these appliances. As such it is

necessary to temporarily install these logs onto the aeration sleeves during commissioning.

The pressures can be checked by operating the buttons on the control panel

PCB through the front access panels of the heater before the wall lining has

been installed, or by pulling out the control panel PCB and accessing the

buttons through the opening from the front of the appliance as shown right.

Check the pressures against those printed on the data plate of the appliance.

If the data plate is not easily accessible the pressures are also detailed

on the next page. Even if no adjustment of the gas pressures is required,

access to the 'SET' button may be required to proceed to the next setting.

COMMISSIONING

Rinnai 23 RHFE0800F_1000_1500 IM

COMMISSIONING THE PCB

IMPORTANT

PCB commissioning steps are ONLY to be done if the PCB is being replaced or after

a gas conversion.

1. Turn on the gas and power supply.

2. Press the 'Test' button, the display will now show the gas code (A1 = Natural, L1 = Propane). Press the

'Up' and 'Down' buttons to obtain the gas code for the unit, and press 'Set' to lock in the code.

Commissioning of the PCB is now complete and the gas pressures can now be checked.

ROOM THERMISTOR OFFSET

IMPORTANT

The PCB has an additional LED display sequence which will appear after the gas code. This is for

the setting of room thermistor o󰀨set. By default this is factory pre-set to 0 (0°C) and ONLY needs

adjustment if there is signicant variation in the thermistor reading and the actual temperature of

the room. Adjustment of this setting is typically NOT required and is part of commissioning.NOT

Thermistor Offset Adjustment

When required adjustment of the o󰀨set can be made in 1/3°C steps to ±5°C. Pressing the 'Up' button o󰀨sets the

temperature +°C, pressing the 'Down' button o󰀨sets the temperature -°C. Refer below for the full adjustment range.
