Masonry Installations - Rinnai Neo RIB2310N Installation Manual

Masonry installations

1. Check dimensions of the opening
Refer 'Enclosure dimensions' and if necessary bring them to the required dimensions.
Check the chimney height as inadequate height can effect product performance. Some
installations may require the chimney height to be extended to reduce down drafts.
2. Check flueway
• Ensure there are no obstructions
• Provide a firm, flat and sealed base (sealed means no holes or openings in the fireplace)
• Ensure adequate support of the appliance (if not properly supported noise and vibration
may result)
3. Install flexiliner flue system
To ensure adequate draw for maximum performance of the appliance, Rinnai strongly
recommends the use of a Rinnai flexiliner flue system for masonry installations. Failure to meet
this installation criteria may result in an unsafe situation. Performance issues resulting from
inadequate flueing is not covered by the warranty.
Installation without a flexiliner is permissible in masonry installations as long as the chimney
has been checked for soundness and ability to achieve a good draw.
