Rinnai Electric Heat Pump Water Heater Manual
Illustrated in Figure 3, the sealed system within the apparatus is charged with refrigerant. This
refrigerant undergoes evaporaon at low temperatures, extracng heat from the surrounding air.
Within the evaporator, the refrigerant transions from a liquid to a gaseous state. Subsequently, a
compressor elevates the pressure and temperature of the gaseous refrigerant. The energy for
compression, sourced from electricity, is indirectly converted into heat and discharged to the
downstream microchannel (condenser). At this stage, the refrigerant indirectly imparts latent heat
to the water within the Domesc Hot Water (DHW) tank, experiencing a phase change back to a
liquid state. The liquid refrigerant is then directed to a lter dryer, followed by an expansion valve
that diminishes the prevailing pressure. The refrigerant is subsequently guided back to the
evaporator, iniang the cycle again.
Figure 3
The electric heat pump operates in a manner opposite to that of a refrigerator. It extracts heat from
the surrounding outside air and transfers it into the water, using electricity solely for system
operaon. This results in signicantly reduced energy consumpon compared to using an electric
element hot water system alone. The eciency of the heat pump system is enhanced in warmer
climates.
The heat pump unit features a highly ecient micro-channel heat exchanger wrapped around the
inner cylinder to opmize thermal conducvity. A temperature sensor in the tank regulates the
heat pump's operaon to achieve the desired water temperature.
During periods when ambient weather condions are unfavorable for the heat pump operaon or
during peak water demand, the electric element heater takes over to ensure a connuous supply of
hot water.

Rinnai Electric Heat Pump Water Heater Manual
Please consult the illustraon on Figure 12 for a recommended standard installaon. It is
advisable to use exible connectors for the hot and cold-water connecons. These connectors
oer vibraon isolaon and facilitate easy service of the water heater, if required.
The HOT and COLD water connecons are disnctly labeled and measure 3/4” MNPT on all
models. It is recommended to install a shut-o valve in the cold-water line near the water heater.
Refer to Secon 5.11, page 20 for instrucons on how to ll the water heater.
Verify the presence of a check valve in the incoming water line by consulng your local water
ulity. It might be installed independently as a backow preventer in the cold-water line or
integrated into a pressure reducing valve, water meter, or water soener. A check valve in the
cold-water inlet line can establish a "closed water system," while the absence of such a valve or
backow prevenon device characterizes an "open" water system.
When water is heated, it undergoes thermal expansion, increasing pressure in the water system. In
an "open" water system, excess expanded water returns to the city main, where pressure is easily
dissipated. Conversely, a "closed water system" inhibits expanded water from owing back into the
main supply line, leading to a swi and hazardous pressure rise in the water heater and system
piping. This rapid pressure increase may trigger the T&P valve at each heang cycle.
The connuous expansion and contracon due to thermal expansion can prematurely damage the
T&P valve and potenally the heater itself. Simply replacing the T&P valve will not resolve the
issue. To control thermal expansion, it is recommended to install a correctly sized expansion tank
in the cold-water line between the water heater and the check valve. The expansion tank has an
integrated air cushion that compresses with rising system pressure, alleviang overpressure
condions and prevenng repeated relief valve acvaon. Alternave methods for managing
thermal expansion exist; consult your installaon contractor, water supplier, or plumbing inspector
for more informaon on this maer.
NOTICE
DO NOT apply heat to the HOT or COLD water connecons. If sweat connecons are employed,
sweat the tubing to the adapter before ng the adapter to the water connecons on the heater.
Any heat applied to the water supply ngs will result in permanent damage to the dip tube and/
or heat traps.
NOTICE
• Operang temperature range of cold (inlet) water is 48°F (9°C) to 110°F (43°C).
• Operang pressure range is 43.5 psi (300 kPa) to 150 psi (1034 kPa).
• Water ow rate should be from 0.88 gpm (0.2 m

instrucons included with the kit must be carefully followed.
WARNING
Insulaon blankets designed for external use on electric water heaters, which are readily available
to the general public, are not deemed necessary. The primary funcon of an insulaon blanket is
to minimize standby heat loss commonly associated with storage tank heaters. In the case of this
water heater, it either meets or exceeds the insulaon and standby loss requirements outlined by
the Naonal Appliance Energy Conservaon Act standards, rendering the use of an insulaon
blanket unnecessary.
It is important to note that the manufacturer's warranty does not cover any damage or defects
resulng from the installaon, aachment, or use of any energy-saving or other unapproved
devices - excluding those explicitly authorized by the manufacturer - incorporated into, onto, or in
conjuncon with the water heater. The ulizaon of unauthorized energy-saving devices may
compromise the lifespan of the water heater and pose risks to life and property. The manufacturer
explicitly disclaims any responsibility for losses or injuries resulng from the use of such
unauthorized devices.
If local codes mandate the use of an external insulaon blanket for this water heater, it is essenal
to meculously observe the following guidelines to avoid impeding the proper funcon and
operaon of the water heater.
CAUTION
• DO NOT obstruct or cover the operang or warning labels axed to the water heater.

26
Rinnai Electric Heat Pump Water Heater Manual
DANGER
Seng the thermostat too high can create a scalding risk. Homes with young children, the elderly,
or individuals with disabilies may need to set the thermostat to 120°F (49°C) or lower to avoid
exposure to hot water.
Water Temperature Seng
Regulate your water heater's temperature through the control display, keeping safety and energy
savings in mind. Lower sengs reduce energy costs. For safety, the factory default is 120°F (49°C),
which is the recommended starng point. Temperatures above 125°F (52°C) can cause severe
burns. Always follow the manual and label warnings on the front of the heater.
Consider installing mixing valves to blend hot and cold water for safer point-of-use temperatures,
following ASSE 1017 standards. For demand response, use ASSE 1017-compliant thermostac
mixing valves on the hot water supply line, per manufacturer instrucons. Refer Table 1, page 5 to
determine the right water temperature for your home.
• The primary funcon of the control panel is to allow user to set temperature. Addionally, it
provides access to extra features like seng up schedule, check performance data, show
error codes, update engineering channels etc.
• The water heater has three means of heang the water: the elements, the heat pump, and a
combinaon of the elements and heat pump.
• The control logic of the Control Assembly is designed so that the heat pump always has
priority over the elements. The temperature regulaon will not be performed unl aer Dry-
Fire detecon tesng indicates that there is sucient water in the tank.
• Refer table 6 and 7 to understand display icons and available operaons on this appliance.
The heat pump’s fan will not turn on if the incoming water temperature is less than 39°F (4°C)
and/or the ambient air temperature is above 107.6°F (42°C), or below 37.4°F (3°C). The
internal diagnoscs detects that the heat pump is out of operaonal range.

To avoid scalding risks, ensure that no one
is exposed to hot water when manually
operang the relief valve. Release the water
into an appropriate drain to avoid injuries
or property damage.
DANGER
Thermal expansion in a closed loop water
system can cause the temperature and
pressure relief valve on the water heater to
discharge periodically.
Consult your water heater supplier or a
qualied plumber to correct it. DO NOT
block the relief valve outlet.
NOTICE
Regular maintenance ensures your water
heater's long, trouble-free operaon. This ap-
pliance has a maintenance reminder. Default is
365 days. When the maintenance me is due,
display shows icon. Establish and follow a
maintenance roune. Refer table 10 to reset
maintenance mer once compleng all check-
ups/clean ups.
Note that most electrical appliances, including
new ones, produce some operaonal noise. If
you noce an excessive increase in noise levels,
contact a qualied installer or plumbing
contractor for inspecon.
When water-using appliances with solenoid
valves close rapidly, it may cause a hammering
eect / noise in the water pipes. To minimize
this issue, you can use strategically placed ris-
ers in the water pipe system or employ water
hammer arresng devices.
IMPORTANT: Li and release the lever handle
on the T&P valve, located on the side of the
water heater, at least once a year to conrm its
Turn o the water heater's power before
beginning to drain water.
CAUTION
Ensure safety by conrming that nobody is
in the vicinity of the hot water discharge
when using the drain valve. The water from
the tank could cause scalding, so direct it to
a proper drain to prevent harm or damage.
DANGER
Sediments suspended in water can
accumulate at the boom of a water heater's
tank, oen due to hard water. To prevent
this buildup, it's recommended to drain a few
quarts of water from the tank every month.
To drain the water heater, rst shut-o the
cold-water supply. Then, either open a hot
water faucet or li the relief valve easing
gear to let air into the tank. You must rst
aach the garden hose. Then close cold
supply, and open hot faucet/T&P valve, then
open drain valve.

It's recommended to clean the air lter
located on the top of the water heater
every 3 months. Clean it with mild
detergent and water, then dry and install it
back. To remove the lter, li and slide it to
the front of the unit, and to replace it,
lower it into the lter slot on top
Refer to the Hydrogen Gas Cauon in the
Operang Instrucons.
NOTICE
Change the mode of operaon to “VACATION”
if water heater not in use for a long me, to
save energy and avoid hydrogen gas build-up.
In case of unit shut down, drain the water
heater and pipes to prevent damage from
freezing. Have a professional inspect the
heater aer a long shutdown and ensure its
fully relled before use.
Avoid removing the anode rod from the
water heater as it shortens the tank's
lifespan and voids the warranty. The anode
rod is designed to reduce corrosion in the
glass-lined tank and is slowly consumed.
High sulfate/mineral content in water can
cause a roen egg smell and chlorinaon of
the water supply can reduce this.
NOTICE
This water heater is equipped with an anode
rod engineered to extend the longevity of the
glass-lined tank. The anode rod undergoes
gradual consumpon, eecvely prevenng
or reducing corrosion of the glass-lined tank.
It is recommended to replace anode rod
every 5 years (IMPORTANT: life of the
anode rod depends on the water usage and
quality. It may need to be replaced earlier
than recommended me).

Q: Why can’t compressor start immediately
aer seng?
A: The unit will wait for 3 min to balance the
pressure of system before starng the
compressor again, it's a self-protecon
logic of unit.
Q: Why does the temperature shown on the
display panel decreased while unit is
running?
A: When the upper tank temperature is much
higher than the lower tank temperature,
the upper hot water will be mixed by the
lower cold water which connually ows
from inlet. This will decrease the upper
temperature.
Q: Why does the element heater never turns
on even if tank temperature is signicantly
lower than set temperature?
A: Scenario 1: The unit is able to fulll hot
water demand without ulizing the backup
element heater.
Scenario 2: If unit is turned on for the rst
me, it goes through inial set up and runs
the dry-re protecon logic to ensure that
the tank is lled with water.
Scenario 3: Check if electric heang switch
parameter is set correctly. Engineering
channel 6 should be set to “
1
”.
Q: Why does the temperature display show
low temperature when hot water is sll
available?
A: the upper temperature sensor is located
1/4 from the top of the tank. It is possible
for the top 1/4 to sll be hot.
Q: Why are the buons unavailable
somemes?
A. The unit features child lock funcon to
avoid any accidental touch. It is indicated
by “ ” icon on the display. To unlock,
press “ ” and “ ” simultaneously for 2
seconds.
