sorry but why would i go out and buy a new untit- when the day i put this in it wasn't doing what it claimed, and you wouldn't replace it-in spite of me telling you this, you just said bad luck,i should take you to VCAT really, if i turn the tap off for 30 seconds, i waste another four litres, if i turn it off for three minutes its 8 to ten litres waste, it easily takes fifteen litres to get to my bathroom and turn hot,, and i cant use hot water washes in my washing machine, cause it comes out cold with all the stops and starts in a wash-only gets to warm, within an hour of having it hooked up, i realised how much of a dud it was, and how much it rips you off, and that it only goes to 48-49- hottish, and how much water it wastes getting there, a real rort for the gas companies and the water people, government people who don't care who pays the bills maybe, anyway within the hour, me realising what it really is, crap, you were telling me, bad luck mate, and now you've got the cheek, to tell me to get another one, at who's cost is that? im wondering, and what do i do with the B16, you should be honest about your machine, it doesn't do what you say it does, certainly not satisfactorily, at all. it wastes a lot of water getting to the advertised temperature, it doesn't or just only gets to, eventually, if you don't mind hanging around watching warm water go down a drain, that is,, so that needs to be said, and if you think your gonna save anything, that,s not going to happen either, id say more the opposite, it was just a mix up in understanding, i never would have got a rated heat water system, but didn't know that's what it was, the plumber made a mistake in not telling me that, but either way, at the end of the day, you should have been decent about it in my book anyway, knowing its not a full and proper,hot water unit, not like a hot water unit, we all know and expect, and that people are going to realise how dud it is, only when they've got it hooked up and tried it, when your gonna tell them "bad luck mate". I also have to put my hot water system back or not be able to wash my clothes or run cleaning programs that require 90c temperatures, that, fair enough, i wouldn't have got anyway,, but would have been very close to, now its just cold cause of getting there, stopping and starting waste, cold, etc. could be 20-25 ltrs before it even gets to 48-9- and by then thats it, it's over, does another 25 litres, and cleaning process, five times, with Luke warm to cool water, would have cost over a thousand to shift it to my kitchen too, lucky my plumber was in the family hey, look im sure this unit is or would be good for creches, schools etc, where too hot water could burn kids, great for that, in spite of the waste, if its keeping kids and the handicapped, the elderly, safe, that's good, but, that's how it needs to be advertised, should be, maybe not for normal people, with plenty of dollars, who might not, concern themselves, like your average home owner, battler, might, could, would, will, like i am, considering, it was all about saving, for me, to me, more than anything, anyway i've learnt a very big lesson that;s for sure, and i want to at least, let people know, what they can expect, in totality, not selective, by, or like, a company, might, or will, tell you, or not tell you, but ridgy didge, as in fairdinkum. all the ups, and all the downs. plusses- negatives. And please stop calling them continual, or continuous, their not, are they, not at "a set temperature" their not, nothing instant either, not in reality anyway, Cant wait for my gas bill.

Had a Rinnai B16 installed about 6 months ago, it's been working fine until today... Now it is not coming on at all. I have checked water pressure and gas connections, everything looks fine. Changed the power outlet to make sure it isn't the problem, but still nothing. Why would it all of a sudden stop coming on? Is there a fuse or a reset switch I can try? Any assistance would be appreciated..

We have just moved into a new Granny flat with a new B16 and also a new Fisher and Paykel washing Machine . Has there been any problems reported about water temperatures in washing machines, as we keep getting "No Hot and No cold " notifications from the washing machine .I am checking here before going to F&P.
Thanks for your help,
