Rinnai Products Featured at HGTV Green Home
Rinnai condensing
boilers and water heaters were recently featured at an open house
at the HGTV Green Home in Plymouth MA. The Green Home is the
latest in a series of Dream Home giveaways by HGTV. The product
showcase open house tour was attended by representatives of Rinnai
and Sweeney Rogers Geraghty Inc., manufacturers’ representatives
for the product line.
Visitors toured the
home and were educated on the product line indoors, as well as at
the mobile showroom positioned on the property outdoors. Online
tours of this unique home are available on www.hgtv.com The HGTV
Dream Home 2010 contains two of Rinnai’s most energy saving
products—the Q85S condensing wall-mounted boiler and RC98HPi
condensing tankless water heater. Both products incorporate
condensing water heating technology for superior energy-efficiency
and supreme performance. Rinnai’s condensing wall-mounted
boilers and condensing tankless water heaters recapture residual
heat from flue gases and transfer it into the water being heated.
This process minimizes the amount of wasted heat, which translates
into supreme energy savings.

The Rinnai Q series
boilers have a fully modulating pump combined with the stainless
steel heat exchanger to make this one of the more efficient units
available. The Q Series is ideal in all homes where more
sophisticated demands call for zone heating. Four heating-only
models and three combi models offer maximum BTU inputs ranging
from 75,000 to 205,000 and operate on either natural or LP gas.
Rinnai’s condensing wall-mounted boiler heats the entire HGTV
Dream Home by providing hot water to hydro-air coils in the
Carrier HVAC system, creating a warm, comfortable indoor
environment while operating at up to 96.5 percent AFUE efficiency,
which is considerably less energy than a traditional gas
boiler.
Rinnai’s
condensing boiler units are easily retrofitted to replace
traditional, less efficient boilers or can be used in new
construction to provide simple, space-saving installations. Rinnai’s
condensing tankless water heater provides the HGTV Dream Home’s
master bedroom, laundry room, kitchen, second bathroom and
½ bath with continuous hot water, eliminating any fear of
cold showers. The company’s unique condensing design delivers up
to 97 percent thermal efficiency, an extremely high value—especially
when compared to traditional gas tank water heaters, which are on
average 60 percent efficient. The home uses Rinnai’s RC98HPi
condensing tankless water heater.
Both Rinnai’s
standard tankless and condensing tankless models offer the same
comfort and convenience benefits including the ability to run
multiple hot water appliances at one time. Visit their web site at

achieves an incredible 83% thermal efficiency, while delivering
the comfort and ambiance of a real wood-burning fireplace. Rinnai
is represented in upstate New York by Stamberger Sender Associates
(7398 Wyers Point Road, Ovid, NY 14521 (607) 532-9595) and in
Metro New York/Long Island by Morley Associates (146 Cedar Street,
