Rinnai INFINITY EF26 External Gas Continuous Flow Water Heater
Upgrade your home's hot water system with the highly efficient Rinnai INFINITY EF26. This premium external condensing gas continuous flow water heater is designed to deliver endless hot water while significantly reducing your energy footprint. By utilizing advanced condensing technology, the EF26 captures waste heat from the flue gas through a secondary heat exchanger, using it to pre-heat the incoming water. This smart engineering means you get the same legendary Rinnai performance while using less energy, making it an ideal choice for eco-conscious Kiwi homeowners and trade professionals looking for a high-performance, compliant installation.
Key Performance Features & Benefits:
- Endless Hot Water: Delivers a powerful flow rate of 26 L/min, making it the perfect continuous flow hot water solution for busy New Zealand homes.
- Maximum Energy Efficiency: Uses 11% less energy than the standard Rinnai INFINITY A26, helping you save on household gas bills.
- Compact, Trade-Friendly Design: 30% lighter and smaller than the previous EF24 model. At just 18 kg and with a similar footprint to the A26, it is easy to handle and fast to install.
- Advanced Engineering: Features an inbuilt condensate neutraliser to safely manage the condensation process.
- Gas Versatility: Available in both LPG and Natural Gas (NG) configurations to suit your property's energy supply.
Installation and Application Specifications:
The Rinnai INFINITY EF26 is designed strictly for external residential applications only and is fully compatible with both mains and medium-pressure water systems. When planning your installation layout, please consider the operating noise level, which sits between 50-54 dB(A). We recommend consulting a licensed gasfitter to ensure the unit is positioned away from bedroom windows or sensitive areas to minimize low-level noise disruption.
Please specify your gas type (LPG or Natural Gas) at the time of purchase to ensure you receive the correct system for your property.
Professional Gasfitting Clearances & Documentation:
To assist you or your installer in determining the perfect mounting location on your home's exterior, please refer to the manufacturer guidelines. Prior to purchase, we highly recommend consulting a licensed NZ gasfitter to verify installation clearance standards.
