Description of the boiler  
Room sealed boiler  
The boiler retreives its com-  
bustion air from outside then  
discharges the flue gasses to  
the outside.  
The Rinnai E boiler is a room sealed, condensing and modulating central heating  
boiler, with an integrated DHW fascility.  
The boiler is provided with a compact stainless steel heat exchanger with smooth  
tubes. This design is a well thought out principle using durable materials.  
The boiler burns gas for supplying heat. The heat is transferred in the heat exchanger  
to the water in the central heating system. By cooling down the exhaust gases  
condensate is formed. This results in high efficiency. The condensate, which has  
no effect on the heat exchanger and the function of the boiler, is drained through  
condensate collector trap.  
Condensing  
Retrieves heat as much as  
possible from the flue gas-  
ses. Water condensates on  
the heat exchanger.  
The boiler is provided with an intelligent control system (CMS Control Management  
System). The boiler anticipates the heat demand of the central heating system or the  
domestic hot water facility system.  
Modulating  
Stepless higher or lower  
burning according to the heat  
demand.  
When an outdoor sensor is connected to the boiler it will operate weather dependantly  
using outdoor reset. This means that the boiler control measures the outside  
temperature and supply temperature. With this data the boiler calculates the optimal  
supply temperature for the installation.

The boiler has a self-adjusting and self-protecting control system for the load and the  
pump capacity. By this means the temperature difference between the supply and return  
water is checked and controlled.  
If the installation resistance is over the stated value; the load will be adjusted until  
an acceptable temperature difference between supply and return water has been  
obtained. If, after this, the temperature difference is still not acceptable then the boiler  
will switch off and wait until an acceptable temperature has arisen.  
If an unacceptable temperature is detected, the control will repeatedly try to achieve  
water flow over the boiler. If not the boiler will switch off.  
The electrical side of an external circulation pump (fig. 6, pos. 8) can be connected  
to the Control Tower. This pump thus switches simultaneously to the boiler pump.  
The maximum absorbed current consumption of the external circulation pump may  
not exceed 120V, 2 Amp. If a pump with a larger current draw is required an isolation  
relay must be used. See the Rinnai BoilerApplications Manual for further information.  
The extra external pump must be selected according the installation resistance and  
required flow.  
As standard the boiler is provided with a water filter in the return pipe of the boiler, so  
that debris of the central heating water is prevented from affecting the boiler.  
NOTICE  
i
When using more than one boiler in an installation please refer to the cascade  
installation instructions.  
NOTICE  
i
The boiler is designed to be used on pressurized heating systems only.

Expansion tank  
The E-Series boilers are equiped with an internal expansion tank.  
The tank of the E75CN and E75CP is positioned inside the boiler casing. This  
expansion tank has a pre-charge pressure of 14.5 PSI / 1 Bar and a capacity of 2.1  
gallon / 8 litres.  
The tank of the E110CN and E110CP is positioned directly beneath the boiler and  
together with the casing forms a single entity with the boiler.  
The casing can be removed by pulling forwards. The expansion tank has a pre-charge  
pressure of 14.5 PSI / 1 Bar and a capacity of 3.1 gallon / 12 litres.  
If a larger capacity expansion tank is needed for the installation a standard expansion  
vessel should be fitted additionally.  
In that case choose an expansion tank volume, of which the summary is geared to  
the installation’s water capacity. The pre-charge pressure depends on the installation  
height above the expansion tank. Fit the expansion tank into the return pipe as close  
as possible to the boiler. The extra expansion tank should be sourced locally. Please  
refer to the expansion tank manufacturer for further information.  
NOTICE  
i
Fill the expansion tank to a minimum of 14.5 psi.

Installation of the vent system  
Consult local and state codes pertaining to special building code and fire department  
requirements. Adhere to national code requirements.  
NOTICE  
i
Follow the listed maximum length of vent systems, which are boiler output dependent.  
The maximum permissible lengths are listed in table 9, chapter 6.7.6.  
NOTICE  
i
Decide how to install the exhaust and air intake system. You can choose between:  
-
Concentric system (see page 26)  
The concentric connection is provided standard initially.  
The boiler concentric connection diameter is 3"/5" (80/125 mm), to which the venting and air  
supply system can be fitted, with or without elbow pieces. The maximum permissible pipe length  
is displayed in table 9, chapter 6.7.6.  
-
Parallel system (see page 27)  
The boiler can be converted to a parallel system with supplied adapters.  
It is possible to use a parallel pipe connection of 2x 3". In this case a seperate supplied kit, with  
2 vent adapters 3" (ø80mm), cover 5" (ø125mm), vent exhaust pipe and gaskets should be  
fitted instead of the concentric vent adapter on top of the boiler. See figure 12 for installation.  
The maximum permissible pipe length is set out in table 9, chapter 6.7.6.  
-
Room Air System (outdoor combustion air)  
The boiler can use room air for combustion. If this option is selected the boiler must first be  
converted to the Parallel system. A single exhaust pipe can then be fitted. It is required to use  
a room air filter when using indoor air for combustion. The maximum permissible pipe length  
is set out in table 9, chapter 6.7.6.  
We advise to install a vent system out of the venting system program supplied by  
Rinnai (See chapter 19 Parts list Vent system). For further information about the  
available components of the venting and air supply system we recommend you  
consult Rinnai and the Installation instructions and parts list documentation.

6.7.8 Room Air System (indoor combustion air)  
When using indoor air, Rinnai strongly recommends the use of an indoor air  
filter, P/N 808000025.  
This boiler requires adequate combustion air for ventilation and dilution of flue gases.  
Failure to provide adequate combustion air can result in unit failure, fire, explosion,  
serious bodily injury or death. Use the following methods to ensure adequate  
combustion air is available for correct and safe operation of this water heater.  
Important: Combustion air must be free of corrosive chemicals. Do not provide  
combustion air from corrosive environments. Appliance failure due to corrosive air is  
not covered by warranty.  
Combustion air must be free of acid forming chemical such as sulfur, fluorine and  
chlorine. These chemicals have been found to cause rapid damage and decay and  
can become toxic when used as combustion air in gas appliances. Such chemicals  
can be found in, but not limited to bleach, ammonia, cat litter, aerosol sprays, cleaning  
solvents, varnish, paint and air fresheners. Do not store these products or similar  
products in the vicinity of this water heater.  
Unconfined Space:  
An unconfined space is defined in NFPA #54 "as a space whose volume is not less  
than 50 cubic feet per 1000 Btu/hr (4.8 m3 per kW per hour) of the aggregate input  
rating of all appliances installed in that space. Rooms communicating directly with  
the space in which the appliances are installed, through openings not furnished with  
doors, are considered a part of the unconfined space." If the “unconfined space”  
containing the appliance(s) is in a building with tight construction, outside air may  
still be required for proper operation. Outside air openings should be sized the same  
as for a confined space.

Confined Space:  
(Small Room, Closet, Alcove, Utility Room, Etc.)  
A confined space is defined in the NFPA #54 as "a space whose volume is less than  
50 cubic feet per 1000 Btu/hr (4.8 m3 per kW per hour) of the aggregate input rating  
of all appliances installed in that space."Aconfined space must have two combustion  
air openings. Size the combustion air openings based on the BTU input for all gas  
utilization equipment in the space and the method by which combustion air is supplied:  
Using indoor air for combustion  
Using outdoor air for combustion  
Louvers and Grills  
When sizing the permanent opening as illustrated in figure 17, consideration must be  
taken for the design of the louvers or grills to maintain the required free area required  
for all gas utilizing equipment in the space. If the free area of the louver or grill design  
is not available, assume wood louvers will have 25% free area and metal louvers or  
grills will have 75% free area. Under no circumstance should the louver, grill or screen  
have openings smaller than ¼”.  
Example:  
Wood: 10 in x 12 in x 0.25 = 30 in2  
Metal: 10 in x 12 in x 0.75 = 90 in2  
Location  
To maintain proper circulation of combustion air two permanent openings (one up-  
per, one lower) must be positioned in confined spaces. The upper shall be within 12  
inches of the confined space and the lower opening shall be within 12 inches of the  
bottom of the confined space. Openings must be positioned as to never be obstructed.  
Combustion air provided to the appliance should not be taken from any area of the  
structure that may produce a negative pressure (i.e. exhaust fans, powered ventila-  
tion fans).

Using Indoor Air For Combustion  
When using air from other room(s) in the building, the total volume of the room(s) must  
be ofadequate volume (Greater than 50 cubic feetper 1000 Btu/hr). Each Combustion  
air opening must have at least one square inch of free area for each 1000 Btuh, but  
not less than 100 square inches each.  
Using Outdoor Air For Combustion  
Outdoor air can be provided to a confined space through two permanent openings,  
one commencing within 12 in. (300mm) of the top and one commencing within 12”  
(300mm) of the bottom, of the confined space. The openings shall communicate to  
the outside by one of two ways:  
directly through horizontal ducts  
indirectly through vertical ducts  
When communicating directly with the outdoors through horizontal ducts,  
each opening shall have a minimum free area of 1 in2/2000 Btu/hr (1100 mm2/  
kW) of total input rating of all appliances in the confined space.  
Note: If ducts are used, the cross sectional area of the duct must be greater  
than or equal to the required free area of the openings to which they are con-  
nected.  
When communicating indirectly with the outdoors through vertical ducts,  
each opening shall have a minimum free area of 1 in2/4000 Btu/hr (550 mm2/  
kW) of total input rating of all appliances in the confined space. Combus-  
tion air to the appliance can be provided from a well ventilated attic or crawl  
space.

When the system has been filled the automatic de-aeration program starts, when a  
program has been selected, by pressing the button for Central Heating, DHW or pump  
program (  
,
of  
). The program takes 17 minutes and stops automatically.  
After this the unit will function normally. (See also 'Filling and de-aerate the boiler and  
installation, chapter 9).  
On a call for heating or hot water the control system will select the required water  
control temperature. This water temperature is called the T-set value. On a call for  
central heating the boiler ignites first at low input. The input is then changed slowly to  
match the load required. The boiler operates in this way to avoid excessive water noises  
and temperature overshoot. On a call for domestic hot water supply the T-set value  
of central heating return water temperature is monitored. Depending on the amount of  
domestic water which is withdrawn from the DHW fascility, the central heating return  
water temperature, from which the input is adjusted, will vary.

NOTICE  
Take note of the following when maintenance or adjustments are needed:  
NOTICE  
-
The unit must be able to function during these activities; for this reason, the unit’s  
supply voltage, gas pressure and water pressure must be maintained. Ensure that  
this is not a source of potential danger during these activities.  
i
Following maintenance or other activities; always check the installation of all  
parts through which gas flows (with bubble test using leak-search spray).  
WARNING  
!
9.1 Requirements of the water system  
Before filling the heating system, the complete system, including all zones, must be  
thoroughly cleaned and flushed to remove sediment. Flush until clean water runs free  
of sediment. Rinnai suggests using an approved system cleaner to flush the system,  
but not the boiler. See the Rinnai Boiler Applications Manual for furtherinformation  
and for a list of approved cleaners.  
ApprovedantifreezesareNobleNoburstAluminum, RhomarRhoGardAluminumSafe  
Multi-Metal. Never use salt bedding exchangers, reverse osmosis, D.I., or distilled  
water for filling the heating system.  
Do not use petroleum-based cleaning or sealing compounds in the boiler  
system. Damage of seals and gaskets in boiler and system could occur,  
resulting in substantial property damage.  
WARNING  
!
The central heating installation needs to be filled with potable water.  
Use only potable water or approved glycol for filling the heating system.  
When the water hardness of the filling water exceeds > 10.5 gpg (200 mg/L)  
and the volume of the installation > 20L/kW (5.2 gallons/3,412 BTU) the water  
has to be treated until below the maximum value of 10.5 gpg (200 mg/L).  
The pH value of the installation water must be between 6.5 and 8.5.  
WARNING  
!
Check the The pH value using a digital pH meter that has been properly calibrated  
or by having the water analyzed by a water treatment company.  
If pH differs from above, contact Rinnai engineering for further assistance.  
Failure to adhere to the water quality requirements will result in a void of war-  
ranty.

Freeze protection  
Freeze protection for new or existing systems must use glycol that is specially  
formulated for this purpose. This includes inhibitors, which prevent the glycol from  
attack the metallic components. This should be for multi-metallic components.  
Make certain to check that the system fluid is correct for the glycol concentration and  
inhibitor level. The system should be tested at least once a year and as recommended  
by the producer of the glycol solution.  
Use only Rinnai approved inhibitors. See the Rinnai BoilerApplications Manual  
for an approved list of inhibitors.  
NOTICE  
i
Use only inhibited propylene glycol solutions, which are specially formulated  
for central heating systems. Ethylene glycol is toxic and can attack gaskets  
and seals used in the boiler and system. Approved glycols ae listed in the  
Rinnai Boiler Applications Manual.  
WARNING

NOTICE  
It can take a while before all air has disappeared from a filled installation.  
Especially in the first week noises may be heard which indicate the presence  
of air. The automatic air vent in the boiler will remove this air, which means  
the water pressure can reduce during this period and therefore topping off  
with water will have to be done.  
i
During normal use the following messages can occur with the necessary follow up:  
Water pressure is too low (<10 PSI), FILL  
indication remains continuously visible,  
the boiler is taken out of operation. The  
installation needs to be topped off.  
Water pressure is too low (<14,5 PSI),  
flashing FILL will alternate with indication  
of water pressure, boiler power of 50%  
is possible. The installation needs to be  
topped off.  
Water pressure is too high (>52,2 PSI),

visible,theboileristakenoutofoperation.  
The installation pressure needs to be  
decreased by draining water.  
9.3 Hot water supply  
Apply the water pipe pressure to the DHW fascility (open main valve and/or stop  
valve of the safety group).  
Vent the DHW fascility and the hot water installation by opening a hot water shut off  
valve. Leave the shut off valve open for as long as required until all air has disappeared  
from the DHW fascility and the pipes and only water is flowing from the shut off valve.

Isolating the boiler  
Some situations require turning the entire boiler off.  
By switching off the three buttons with the LED's for central heating, hot water and  
pump program ( or ), the boiler is switched off. Do not shut off the power  
,
of the boiler, which means the circulation pump and the three-way valve are activated  
once every 24 hours in order to prevent these parts from seizing up.  
In the event of frost danger during an isolated boiler it is advisable to drain  
the boiler and/or the installation.  
CAUTION  
!

Commissioning  
Work on the boiler must be carried out by a competent person, using  
correctly calibrated instruments with current test certification.  
These installation instructions are intended for professional installers, who  
have the necessary knowledge and are approved for working on heating and  
gas systems.  
NOTICE  
i
Before the boiler is fired, ensure that the boiler and the system are well de-aerated  
and free of air. Purge the gas line between the gas meter and the boiler.  
The boiler and its individual shut off valve must be disconnected from the  
gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test  
pressures in excess of 1/2 PSI (3.5kPa).  
NOTICE  
i
To commission the boiler the casing has to be removed.  
-
-
-
remove the 4 screws A,B,C and D in the quick releases of the casing (figure 17);  
remove the screw E behind the door on the front of the casing (figure 17);  
remove it towards the front.  
The boiler settings, such as burner pressure and adjustment of the air quantity are  
unnecessary, due to the fact that the boiler operates with a zero pressure control.  
This means the correct gas quantity is controlled by the suction operation of the fan.  
The fine adjustment which is carried out at the factory is once-only, which means  
that adjusting of these values is unnecessary. Only in case of replacing of the gas  
valve, venturi and/or fan, the zero pressure and the incorrect O2 adjustment has to  
be checked and, if necessary, adjusted at the right value.  
Always check the installation of all parts through which gas flows (by bubble  
test using leak-search spray)  
DANGER  
!
During the commissioning of the boiler the Rinnai Installation, Commissioning, and  
Service card must be filled out.

check the venturi and the gas-air distribution plate for pollution and clean this part,  
if necessary with a soft brush and vacuum cleaner. If the air box contains a lot  
of dirt it is plausible that the fan itself is dirty as well. To clean this, the fan has to  
be removed from the hood and the venturi. Clean the fan with a soft brush and a  
vacuum cleaner. Replace the gasket and ensure that all gaskets of the fan parts  
are mounted correctly.

check the heat exchanger for contamination. Clean this if necessary with a soft  
brush and a vacuum cleaner. Prevent dirt falling down into the heat exchanger.  
Flushing the heat exchanger from the top down is not permitted  
NOTICE  
i
Refitting of the components is done in reverse order.  
Make sure that during refitting the clamping rods they are put in the right  
position. They should be turned vertical.  
If the boiler should activated with clamping rods in the wrong position it will  
cause serious property damage, personal injury or loss of life.  
DANGER  
!
Ignition electrode (4 year or 4000 hour maintenance)  
The replacement of the electrode is only necessary when the electrode is worn off.  
This can be checked by measuring the ionisation current. The minimum ionisation  
current has to be higher than 4µA on full load.

Common venting guidelines  
Do not common vent with the vent pipe of any other boiler or appliance. However,  
when an existing boiler is removed from a common venting system, the common  
venting system is likely to be too large for proper venting of the appliances remaining  
connected to it. At the time of removal of an existing boiler, the following steps shall  
be followed with each appliance remaining connected to the common venting system  
placed in operation, while the other appliances remaining connected to the common  
venting system are not in operation:  
(a) Seal any unused openings in the common venting system.  
(b) Visually inspect the venting system for proper size and horizontal pitch and deter-  
mine there is no blockage or restriction, leakage, corrosion and otherdeficiencies  
which could cause an unsafe condition.  
(c) Insofar as is practical, close all building doors and windows and all doors between  
the space in which the appliances remaining connected to thecommon venting  
system are located and other spaces of the building. Turn on clothes dryers and  
any appliance not connected to the common venting system. Turn on any exhaust  
fans, such as range hoods and bathroom exhausts, so they will operate at maxi-  
mum speed. Do not operate a summer exhaust fan. Close fireplace dampers.  
(d) Place in operation the appliance being inspected. Follow the lighting instructions.  
Adjust thermostat so appliance will operate continuously  
(e) Test for spillage at the draft hood relief opening after 5 minutes of mainburner  
operation. Use the flame of a match or candle, or smoke from acigarette, cigar or  
pipe.  
(f) After it has been determined that each appliance remaining connected to the com-  
mon venting system properly vents when tested as outlined above,return doors,  
windows, exhaust fans, fireplace dampers and any other gas burning appliance  
to their previous condition of use.”  
(g) Any improper operation of the common venting system should be corrected so the  
installation conforms with the National Fuel Gas Code,ANSI Z223.1/NFPA54 and/  
or CAN/CSA B149.1, Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code. When resizing  
any portion of the common venting system, the common venting system should  
be resized to approach the minimum size as determined using the appropriate  
tables in Part 11 of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 and/or  
CAN/CSA B149.1, Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code.
