Re: How much for an instantaneous gas hot water unit? 22Aug 02, 2009 9:48 am Is Rinnai Envirosmart 24A smaller than Infinity 26 (since the number is smaller, or is this not how it works)? Re: How much for an instantaneous gas hot water unit? 23Aug 02, 2009 10:32 pm Hi, We are just looking at installing a new gas hot water heater and tossing up brands and instantaneous/continuous opposed to storage. I'm confused now. Also, I have read bad reviews of the Rinnai's Instantaneous - takes too long to heat up, need extra controllers to regulate temperature, temperature fluctuations, only get as hot as 46 degrees even tho they say 50 degrees and pressure related temperatures - has to be full pressure to get hot. It seems you only use the hot water tap for showers etc and dont use cold. This is ok for us but I am then worried about the kids using someone else's shower and thinking you only turn on the hot and will burn themselves. I havent found anything about the Rheem, negative or positive. Does anyone have any feedback? Sorry to butt in on your topic - not sure if this should go somewhere else but still interested in the pricing between the brands. cheers, Kym 1 week to go Re: How much for an instantaneous gas hot water unit? 24Aug 03, 2009 5:32 pm gettingThere Is Rinnai Envirosmart 24A smaller than Infinity 26 (since the number is smaller, or is this not how it works)?
