ABNORMAL FLAME PATTERN
Each Rinnai Gas Fire has a distinct flame pattern. The flame should look the same every time you start your
heater, after an initial warm up period of approximately 15 minutes.
Abnormal flame performance and/or pattern can indicate a problem with your heater, such as blocked gas injectors,
incorrectly installed / inadequate flue system or the Ceramic logs / stones and or burner media may have shifted
from when the heater was first installed.
There are some warning signs that could indicate a problem. If any of the signs below occur, please contact Rinnai.
