This device can detect temperature variations of less than -16☌ and replace the heat before it escapes the room. Unlike typical single-stage heating appliances, which have more significant temperature swings, the Rinnai Australia Energy Saver uses revolutionary technology that continuously monitors the room temperature at five cm above the floor. Continue reading to discover why your heater has a red light and what to do if it starts flashing.

If it's flashing, it's time to pay attention to the furnace because something's not right. Under normal circumstances, the light will be on all the time. This light can warn you about heater problems before you have to spend money on repairs. Many heaters contain an LED light that serves as the furnace's voice. If you own a home, there are a few maintenance tasks that you should complete to avoid more repair costs. Those who don't pay attention frequently end up paying for costly emergency repairs or replacements. Homeowners must have their systems inspected at least once a year. This is because your heating system is primarily used in the winter. If you don't maintain your heater in the winter, it may break. Nice looking heater,simple flue through outside wall,easy to installĪfter two years the computer/thermostat control appears to have failed and it will now not maintain the room temperature to normally acceptable room temperatures the heater is continually exhibiting wildly fluctuating temperatures with the heater indicated room temperatures having risen to well above the user settings when checked against a thermometer the actual room temperature was as much a 5 deg C below the User settings and the heater failing to maintain any heat until well below the User setting and sometimes it was taking as much as two hours before the heater decided to heat the room again, a very unsatisfactory situation.A gas heater maintained at least once a year runs more efficiently and has fewer problems than one that does not undergo such maintenance.

If you have several meters of flue to install then be sure to include the cost of these parts when pricing these compared to installing a Heat pump.įor the first couple of years of operation the heater was fine, really good, so much so we decided to purchase another one for our family room in march this year, ironically before we noticed this erratic behaviour in this one, naturally we haven't used the heater much during the summer months so not observed the current problem. PVC pipe with an internal aluminium pipe. The cost of the additional flue kits is a rip off. ON/OFF, ON/OFF, ON/OFF etc seems a very simple way of doing it. Would have been nice if the heater just reduced the flame size and lowered the fan speed so that the room remained at the correct temperature in a more controlled way.

This process creates noise as the flame ignites and the fans go to full on.

The thermostat regulates the room temperature by turning the heater on and off. Read more a heat pump as long as your KW/hr rate for Gas is 1/3 the price of KW/hr for electricity. Comes with a timer allowing you to set on/off times for two periods of the day. Safe, no chance of getting burnt with this.


I rate the gas heater as being just as warm, fast, and as cheap to run as the heat pump. I have a heat pump in the upstairs part of the house. I installed one because I did not want another Heat pump compressor mounted outside the house. If a heat pump is not your thing, then this is the next best thing. Produces a wonderful warm room really fast.
