Rinnai Energysaver 559FT Questions & Answers

Hi i have the 559ft Rinnai energy saver and it doesn't seem to want to go over 17degrees. Filter is clean has a new fan can anyone help please?

We have just purchased the Rinnai Energy Saver 559FT and are finding that it is drying out our throats?? We love it but find this a real problem. We have put water in the tray below but it is still the same. Any ideas on what to do?

We have this model and using the heater slot this winter. Is it cheaper to keep heater constantly on at s reasonable temp perhaps 18. Or just turn it on when cold? And how exactly do I set the timers? I thought I did but did not work and have lost manual

My 559FT heater doesn’t cut out on frosty mornings - I have it on 18 .5 degrees,, but room gauge and it feels like 23 - which is warm .is this normal, it is only since the mornings are very cold outside - 2d

When my rinnai heats up the fan sometimes squeaks

we had this heater installed yesterday and its set at 23, the temp on heater was 11 yet the heater would not go above 16" the room temp is 21 it was going for hours and still wont go past 16, to get to desired 23, so i turned the heater down to 16 and it ran for the rest of the night and it still was still at 16 degrees, i thought it should of shut down at least

Hi! I’ve recently moved into a new house with the RHFE-559FT installed brand new. Every time I use it, it’s setting off my smoke detectors. I’ve had the smoke detectors replaced and it’s still happening. I had someone come to my house for the third time in 24 hours and they think it could be because my heater is new. Could that be why?

I bought, I paid nearly $ 3,000 and I'm not satisfied.I set the temperature to 25 degrees.After some time, the heater shows 25 degrees and the heater automatically is off.Ok.My thermostat on the wall of the room shows a temperature of 20 degrees???What's going on?

I have a brand new Rinnai Energysaver 559 FT, haven’t even had it for a week! Everything goes along fine until the room reaches the desired temperature, the thermostat kicks in and the system just shuts down! There doesn’t seem to be any power getting through and it’s not the power point, I’ve checked. I then have no control over the ON/OFF BUTTON. The heater may or may not try to turn back on but can’t!
WHY IS THIS HAPPENING? Is it a faulty unit? Who gets to decide that?
Not happy at all.
My previous Rinnai energysaver worked like a dream for 15 years. It says something about quality control or lack of it in 2018!
No heat for me for who knows how long.

My Rinnai 559ft seems to be leaking a small amount of water from underneath. No it’s not from the humidity tray. Any ideas?

My heater is very noisy after a while what can we do to fix it shakes rattles and is extremely noisy? Have cleaned as best as can and still happening

Does the heater still heat well if the fan is not on? Also, to use LPG would we need a kit to convert it?
One more question! Is it possible to operate this in a blackout? (eg battery powered ignition or external ignition possible?)

Hi we have a Rinnai RHFE-559FT and yesterday I went to turn it on and it made a strange sound almost like water bubbling or something like that then as soon as the fan kicked in it would turn off and a '12' would come up in the display when checking the manual under heading 'Error Messages' it says '12' is Flame Failure! We turned it off and unplugged it. Today however my son turned it on and it did make alot of clucking sounds and a sort of bubbling sound then the fan kicked in and it stayed on....yet after about 3 minutes it began to smell quite bad - gas toxic smell. Does or has anyone else had this problem? Our heater is only 2 years old.

I've experienced a power surge and it knocked out our energysaver 559FT, does this unit have a replaceable fuse?

Hi. Are on our second heater. Best thing ever though We have just had a power outage in our street and surrounding streets. Something very worrying just happened with our heater. as the power was off the fan cut out but the gas stayed in to the heater. We couldn't use the operation buttons. The heater became dangerously hot and had a very strong burning smell. Becand too hot to touch in just a matter of minutes. We very quickly turned the gas supply off as this was the only way we could exhaust the heaters flame. Should this happen ?

Where can I find out the principles on which my 559ft heater works so that I can maximise it's performance.
For instance, one of my queries is, do I leave it on maximum until it reaches the selected temperature and then switch to Energysaver or do I run it on Energysaver all the time. Is there any advisory service in any of your outlets or are there any information brochures that would cover this? I find that, if I understand how something works, I then know how to operate it better.

can i wall mount mt 559FT heater, around 150mm off floor?
