Tankless Water Heaters — Why Rinnai, Why Now

A tankless water heater eliminates standby heat loss — the energy your tank spends keeping 40–60 gallons hot around the clock whether you're using it or not. That standby loss typically costs $100–$200/year in wasted gas. A properly sized Rinnai tankless unit heats water only when you need it, reducing gas consumption for water heating by 20–35% while providing unlimited supply.

Rinnai Models We Install

Rinnai RL Series

Non-Condensing · ~0.82–0.84 UEF

Reliable, proven performance at a lower initial cost. Non-condensing design — good choice for retrofits where condensate drainage is difficult.

Most Popular

Rinnai RU Series — Ultra High-Efficiency

Condensing · Up to 0.96 UEF

Extracts additional heat from exhaust gases. The right choice for households with high demand. Requires condensate drain and PVC venting.

Rinnai RUR — Instant Hot Water at Every Tap

Condensing + Recirculation

Built-in recirculation pump delivers instant hot water throughout the home. Eliminates waiting and water waste.

Our Process

1

Gas supply verification

We check your meter and gas supply line capacity before specifying a unit — under-sized gas supply is the most common tankless failure.

2

Unit sizing

Based on your household's peak simultaneous demand and Ontario's 8–10°C winter groundwater temperature — not guessing.

3

Installation with TSSA permit

All gas appliance installations require TSSA permits. We handle the application and inspection.

4

Commissioning & warranty

Combustion analysis, hot water flow testing, and full Rinnai warranty registration.

Pricing & Financing

Rinnai tankless installation: $3,200–$6,000+ installed. No-money-down financing available OAC. Annual descaling: $199–$299 (recommended in Durham Region due to hard water).

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does Rinnai tankless installation cost?

$3,200–$6,000+ installed depending on the model, gas supply work needed, and venting configuration. We provide fully itemized quotes.

Will a tankless water heater run out of hot water?

No — as long as the unit is correctly sized for your household's peak simultaneous demand and gas supply is adequate, hot water supply is unlimited. We calculate peak demand before specifying any unit.

How often does a Rinnai need descaling?

In Durham Region's moderately hard water, annual descaling is recommended. Signs it's overdue: Error 29, reduced hot water flow, or it's been 12+ months since the last service.

What's the difference between condensing and non-condensing tankless?

Condensing units (RU Series) achieve up to 0.96 UEF by extracting heat from exhaust gases — require PVC venting and a condensate drain. Non-condensing units are simpler to install in some retrofits and use stainless steel venting.

Can you repair a Rinnai showing an error code?

Yes. Each Rinnai error code points to a specific fault. Error 11/12 = ignition/flame issues. Error 29 = scale buildup requiring descaling. Error 65 = water flow valve fault. We diagnose and resolve all codes.
