This boiler produces condensate. Condensate must be drained otherwise the boiler
will not function and can cause product or property damage.
The condensation drain pipe should be connected to a drain in the building by means
of an open connection. By this means the possibility of drain gases effecting the boiler
is prevented. The drain connection should have a minimum diameter of 1.25" / 32mm.
Install the condensation drain pipe according to applicable local code.
If the condensate outlet of the boiler is lower than the public sewage system a
condensate pump must be used.
The condensate produced by the boiler has a pH value between 3 and 4.
Install a neutralization unit if required by local code. It is recommended, but not
required to install a condensate neutralizer. Rinnai offers a condensate neutralizer
designed to work with all boiler models. The condensate neutralizer kit comes with
all the necessary fittings and mounting material. PVC pipe must be supplied by the
installation contractor.
Rinnai part number: 804000074
Do not drain the condensation water to the external rain gutter because of the
danger of freezing and blockage of the drain.
Before putting the boiler into operation fill the condensate trap with 1.27 cups /
300 ml of water. If the boiler will be installed in a high temperature installation
such as baseboard with a supply temperature of 160°F or above, fill the
condensate trap with mineral oil instead of water.
Use materials approved by the authority having jurisdiction. In absence of such
authority, PVC and CPVC pipe must comply with ASTM D1785, F441 or D2665.
Cement and primer must comply with ASTM D2564 or F493.
For Canada, use CSA or ULC certified PVC or CPVC pipe, fittings and cement.
Periodic cleaning of the condensate disposal system must be carried out. See
the Rinnai Boiler Application Manual for further information and for a piping
diagram for the condensate.
