REGULATIONS, CLEARANCES & GENERAL INFORMATION
• The requirements of the current version of AS/NZS 5601 (Gas Installations)
Note that AS/NZS 5601 is referred to in this instruction and was current at the time of printing, but may have
since been superseded. It is the Installer’s responsibility to ensure that requirements of the current version of
AS/NZS 5601 are met.
• Manufacturers installation instructions.
Before commencing an installation, read the installation sections of the ‘Customer and Installation Manual’
supplied with the heater.
• Local & Municipal building codes.
• Any other relevant Statutory Regulation.
• Rinnai Energysaver space heater when correctly installed with Rinnai approved flue components are room-
sealed appliances and no internal ventilation is required.
• Rinnai Energysaver space heater is fan-assisted. Therefore the fan assisted flue clearance dimensions from
AS/NZS 5601 extract shown on this page must be used.
• The outer plastic section of the Co-Axial Flue complies with temperature hazard requirements and can be
installed with zero clearance to combustible material.
• Vertical clearances when using a roof terminal (ESROOFCOWL) are shown in Fig.1.
If in doubt contact the Rinnai Australia National Helpline (number on the back page).
