    Great little heater

    published

    We have 3.1 metre ceilings and a large expanse of tiled floor, and this is all the heating we need in winter. It's a great product very reliable and quiet. Would definitely recommend. While we are yet to use the timer that option is available so you can time it to come home to a cosy room. It cuts off once reaches the desired temperature and is extremely economical to run

    Up to the reputations

    published

    The best gas heater I bought. I have gone through the reviews from many websites as well as from this website.



    It's really a good heater and warms up the room pretty quickly.

    It is not very quiet heater but it size and looks are very good.

    If you do not need three meter hose pipe.. than go for shorter one.

    This is our 3rd Rinnai

    published

    This one we purchased to replace our older model, that still worked perfectly so gave it to my mother! I will only buy these heaters now, we also have an even older Rinnai Titan Mk II in our TV room that still works beautifully. This model is sleek and discrete and so powerful it heats our large living room, dining room and kitchen within minutes. These rooms are in one big open plan area with wooden floorboards and a lot of uncovered windows and floor to ceiling glass sliders. Our visitors often ask if we have central heating! These heaters are well worth their price and I can highly recommend a Rinnai of any model.

    Heats up the room nicely

    published

    We purchased this almost a year ago for the bottom floor of our house as it is always really cold downstairs! This heats up the room really well and we feel warm and toasty. It's easy to use. Love it and will highly recommend this brand. When filter button starts flickering, all you need to do is wipe the dust away with a damp cloth and it'll be fine to use again.

    Fabulous heater, room is warm in seconds!

    published

    Purchased this heater at the end of last winter and wishing we had done it sooner. It heats so quickly and the temperature setting is a must for comfort. The remote control is fabulous to switch the heater off 10 minutes or so before hauling up off the lounge for bed. Brilliant heater, love it.

    Brilliant heaters

    published

    We have two of these heaters and they do a great job heating downstairs of our house. Had one for a few years and is going without problems and purchased a second for last winter. One is in silver and one in beige. Both run off the mains gas. Easy to use and fast to heat up

    if looking for a great invention that is user friendly that this is the device and model for you
    it reduces cost and over head to the consumer and it actually works in the coldest of homes in the tablelands

    Great heater & exceptional heating!

    published

    Great heater with many functions. Versatile and quick to heat up larger areas. We run on economy mode & it gets the job done perfectly. It is sleek looking and efficient. This heater has been the best purchase of heating appliance for us. We struggled with electric element heaters. Rinnai is the one to get the job done.

    Great whilst working very Poor Rinnai Customer Service Warranty

    published

    We bought this heater just on five years ago and was great heater, it did a great job warming us up until this year. I had the heater serviced every two years by a reputable gas fitter who until recently was Rinnai agent. This winter our heater failed to start with error code 11 on display, went in for service who were in touch with Rinnai and after three weeks the heater was returned....... unable to be repaired. I then contacted Rinnai for assistance only to be told to pay $175 for the first hour of inspection with another gas fitter and then a decision will be made. They did not have decency to hear me out but rather kept on talking over me by reading out their warranty policy. Now I stuck without a heater in the middle of winter.

    Dear Rinnai Official, thank you for your prompt service arrangement. After escalating our issue a Rinnia technician attended to our heater and had it working again within 24 hours. Now we are warm again :)

    Warmth with convenience

    published

    It is our first heater of this type. Easily keeps entire house warm and then keeping it there - just turn it on and I walk away from it. Love setting the timers so that we can come home to a home to a warm house in the evenings and having it come on in the morning to encourage you out of bed!

    Only get caught out from time to time with aerosols like fly spray can make it smell of fumes. Some are worse then others, but we just turn it off for 5 min if we spray. Perhaps Rinnai could provide feedback on this? It does not smell of fumes other than this

    Perfect Heater

    published

    We have a large open home and this particular heater is perfect, we find the timer program brilliant, very nice to set and get up to a nice warm home in the mornings, haven't had a chance to see what the cost of running will be as it is too early as we haven't used long enough but will soon know as June and July come.

    Our Rinnai Avenger 25 has a strong gas smell for the first 2 mins or so whenever we turn it on. Is this normal?

    G’day Katrina. Ours had a fairly strong odor the first night, less so the second and hasn’t worked since. I guess that is the point of my rant. The heater is still with the technician who doesn’t know what is wrong with it and he can’t get hold of the bloke who can approve replacement. Sorry I can’t be any more help. Good luck, you might need it. GlennC. (C stands for chilly!)
