PRODUCT OVERVIEW

What Is the Rinnai Infinity 16?

The Rinnai Infinity 16 is a gas continuous flow hot water system that heats incoming water as it passes through the appliance.

Unlike a traditional gas storage hot water system, it does not rely on a large insulated cylinder of stored hot water.

Instead, the appliance operates when sufficient hot water flow is detected and heats the water as required.

The Rinnai Infinity 16 belongs to the 16 litre per minute nominal flow class, making it a smaller-capacity option than 20 litre or 26 litre continuous flow systems.

Its compact design is useful where outdoor wall space is limited and a larger storage tank would be unnecessary.

The system is generally suited to homes with lighter to moderate hot water demand, particularly where one major hot water outlet is used at a time.

For larger households or properties with frequent simultaneous shower use, a higher-capacity continuous flow system may be more appropriate.

The correct appliance should be selected according to the property's actual hot water requirements rather than bathroom count alone.

Why Choose the Rinnai Infinity 16?

On-Demand Hot Water

Heats water as it is needed rather than maintaining a conventional tank of stored hot water.

Compact Outdoor Installation

The slimline format can be useful where available outdoor wall space is an important consideration.

Practical for Smaller Homes

Designed for lighter to moderate hot water demand without automatically stepping up to a larger appliance.

No Conventional Storage Tank

Avoids the standby heat losses associated with maintaining a large stored volume of hot water.

Controlled Water Heating

Uses temperature management to support consistent delivery when water flow and gas supply remain within operating limits.

Replacement Flexibility

May suit compatible gas continuous flow replacements and selected conversions from older storage systems.

The main benefit of the Rinnai Infinity 16 is its balance of compact installation and continuous hot water capacity for suitable smaller households.

However, a larger system is not always unnecessary simply because a home has one bathroom. High-flow showers, long pipe runs and simultaneous tap usage can influence the required capacity.

HOUSEHOLD SUITABILITY

Is the Rinnai Infinity 16 Right for Your Home?

The Rinnai Infinity 16 is generally best suited to single bathroom homes with lighter to moderate hot water demand.

It can also be worth considering for studios, granny flats and smaller properties where simultaneous hot water usage is limited.

In warmer climates such as South East Queensland, it may suit selected smaller two bathroom properties, provided the expected simultaneous flow demand remains within the appliance's capability.

Where the Infinity 16 May Suit

Single bathroom homes, smaller households, studios, granny flats, low simultaneous demand and suitable compact gas hot water replacements.

Where More Capacity May Be Needed

Multiple simultaneous showers, high-flow showerheads, large baths, larger households and properties with higher combined hot water demand.

A home with one bathroom and a high-flow shower may place greater demand on a hot water system than a two bathroom property where fixtures are rarely used together.

JR Gas & Water considers how hot water is actually used before recommending a system size.

What Does 16 Litres Mean on the Rinnai Infinity 16?

The Rinnai Infinity 16 is described as a 16 litre per minute class continuous flow hot water system.

This is a nominal hot water flow rating under specified manufacturer test conditions.

It does not mean the appliance stores 16 litres of heated water.

Actual available hot water flow depends on the incoming water temperature, the required temperature increase, gas heating capacity and water supply conditions.

When incoming water is colder, more energy is required to heat it to the desired temperature.

This can reduce the maximum available flow rate.

Consequently, the nominal 16 litre rating should not be interpreted as a guaranteed hot water flow rate under every operating condition.

For correct sizing, the manufacturer's rated flow performance should be compared with the property's expected hot water demand.

Can the Rinnai Infinity 16 Run Two Showers?

The Rinnai Infinity 16 is primarily positioned for lighter to moderate demand, particularly single bathroom homes.

Whether it can adequately supply two showers at the same time depends on the combined hot water flow requirements, incoming water temperature and the required temperature rise.

Two low-flow showerheads may place less demand on the appliance than two high-flow showerheads.

However, the combined demand may still exceed the unit's available heating capacity under certain conditions.

For households where two showers are regularly used simultaneously, a larger continuous flow appliance is generally worth considering.

JR Gas & Water can assess the property's expected flow requirements and recommend whether the Infinity 16 is suitable or whether a higher-capacity unit would provide a better result.

HOT WATER PERFORMANCE

Rinnai Infinity 16 Temperature Control and Hot Water Delivery

The Rinnai Infinity 16 is designed to provide controlled gas water heating as hot water flows through the appliance.

Its temperature management helps regulate hot water delivery within the system's operating range.

However, temperature stability also depends on adequate gas pressure, suitable water flow and the demands placed on the appliance.

When several outlets are used together, the available heating capacity must be shared across the combined water flow.

If demand exceeds the appliance's capacity, hot water performance may be affected.

Any optional temperature controller compatibility, factory temperature settings and available delivery temperature configurations should be confirmed against current Rinnai documentation for the exact Infinity 16 model.

Applicable temperature limiting requirements must also be considered during installation.

GAS SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS

Rinnai Infinity 16 Gas Supply Requirements

The Rinnai Infinity 16 requires a gas supply capable of supporting the appliance's specified input and operating pressure.

Continuous flow systems can require substantial instantaneous gas input even when the appliance itself is compact.

For this reason, an existing gas line should not automatically be assumed suitable simply because it previously supplied a storage hot water system.

Correct approved gas variant
Available gas supply capacity
Gas pipe sizing
Gas operating pressure
Gas meter capacity
Gas regulator suitability
Other connected gas appliances
Gas isolation arrangements
Gas connection position
Manufacturer commissioning requirements

Where the existing gas supply cannot support the appliance, additional gasfitting work may be necessary.

The exact gas input, approved gas types, connection size and operating pressure must be confirmed from current Rinnai specifications.

Rinnai Infinity 16 Natural Gas and LPG Compatibility

The gas type must match the exact Rinnai Infinity 16 appliance supplied for installation.

Natural gas and LPG are different fuels with different operating and appliance requirements.

The availability of specific Infinity 16 gas variants should be confirmed from current Rinnai product documentation before ordering.

A unit approved for one gas type must not be assumed suitable for another.

For properties using LPG cylinders, the complete supply arrangement, regulator and pipework must also be assessed.

JR Gas & Water can review the existing gas supply and determine what is required for a compliant installation.

Rinnai Infinity 16 Water Pressure and Flow Requirements

Water pressure and flow are important for reliable operation of a gas continuous flow hot water system.

The Infinity 16 must receive sufficient water flow to activate and operate correctly.

Low water pressure or restricted pipework may affect hot water delivery, while excessive pressure may require appropriate pressure control.

Incoming mains water pressure
Available water flow rate
Minimum activation flow
Cold water pipe sizing
Hot water pipework layout
Pressure limiting requirements
Showerhead flow rates
Simultaneous outlet demand

The exact minimum and maximum water pressure limits and activation flow requirements should be confirmed from the current manufacturer specifications.

Rinnai Infinity 16 Outdoor Installation and Clearances

The supplied product description identifies the Rinnai Infinity 16 as a compact appliance intended for suitable outdoor wall-mounted installation.

The selected mounting location must comply with the manufacturer's installation instructions and applicable gas installation requirements.

Important considerations include wall strength, access for maintenance, gas and water connection locations and flue discharge clearances.

Clearances from windows, doors, ventilation openings, property boundaries and other building features may affect the available installation position.

An existing location is not automatically compliant simply because another gas hot water system was previously installed there.

Where the current position does not meet the new appliance's requirements, relocation or other installation changes may be necessary.

How Does the Rinnai Infinity 16 Work?

1. A hot water tap opens: Water begins flowing through the appliance.

2. Water flow is detected: When the required operating conditions are met, the system initiates its heating cycle.

3. Gas heats the incoming water: Heat is transferred to the water as it passes through the appliance.

4. Temperature is managed: The system regulates heating within its operating capabilities.

5. Hot water travels to the outlet: Heated water moves through the property's plumbing to the shower, tap or other fixture.

6. Heating stops when demand ends: The appliance stops its normal heating cycle when hot water flow ceases.

Because the system heats water on demand, there is no conventional hot water storage tank to keep heated between uses.

However, hot water may still take time to reach a distant fixture because cooled water must first move through the pipework.

Can the Rinnai Infinity 16 Replace Your Existing Hot Water System?

The Rinnai Infinity 16 may be suitable for replacing an older gas continuous flow hot water system where the property's gas supply, plumbing, installation location and hot water demand are compatible.

It may also be considered when converting from a gas storage hot water system, although additional work may be necessary.

Replacing an Existing Continuous Flow System

A like-for-like replacement may be relatively straightforward where the existing gas supply, water connections, electrical arrangements and mounting location meet the new model's requirements.

Replacing a Gas Storage Hot Water System

Conversion may require a different mounting location, gas pipe upgrades, plumbing changes, electrical supply and revised temperature control arrangements.

A 16 litre continuous flow appliance should not automatically be considered an equivalent replacement for every gas storage system.

The household's peak hot water demand must be considered before selecting the replacement.

SUPPLY & INSTALL

Rinnai Infinity 16 Installed Price in Brisbane & Gold Coast

The cost of Rinnai Infinity 16 supply and installation depends on the existing hot water system, property services and installation requirements.

A straightforward replacement with compatible services may involve less work than a conversion from storage hot water or an installation requiring gas supply upgrades.

Factors that can affect the installed price include:

Rinnai Infinity 16 appliance supply
Correct gas model selection
Removal of the existing hot water system
Gas pipe sizing assessment
Gas pipe upgrades
Gas meter or regulator requirements
Wall mounting arrangements
Hot and cold water connections
Plumbing alterations
Pressure limiting requirements
Temperature limiting requirements
Electrical supply where required
Flue discharge clearances
Installation access
Relocation or additional compliance work
Testing and commissioning

Final installation pricing depends on the property and agreed scope of work.

JR Gas & Water assesses what is required for a suitable and compliant installation rather than assuming every hot water replacement involves identical work.

Rinnai Infinity 16 Running Costs and Energy Efficiency

The Rinnai Infinity 16 heats water on demand rather than maintaining a conventional storage tank of heated water.

This avoids the standby heat losses associated with keeping a storage cylinder hot between periods of use.

However, actual running costs depend on the amount of hot water used, incoming water temperature, gas tariffs and the appliance's rated efficiency.

Hot water usage habits also matter. Longer showers and higher-flow fixtures can increase water and gas consumption regardless of the appliance type.

The current Infinity 16 gas energy rating and consumption figures should be confirmed from manufacturer documentation before making numerical efficiency or savings claims.

For a meaningful comparison, running costs should be considered alongside the upfront appliance price, installation requirements and expected household demand.

Rinnai Infinity 16 vs 20L and 26L Continuous Flow Systems

The Infinity 16 belongs to a smaller continuous flow capacity class than 20 litre and 26 litre appliances.

The appropriate size depends on how much hot water the household requires at the same time.

Comparison 16L Class 20L Class 26L Class
Nominal Flow Class 16L/min 20L/min 26L/min
General Demand Level Light to moderate Moderate Moderate to higher
Typical Consideration Single bathroom homes One to two bathroom homes One to two bathroom homes and selected higher-demand properties
Simultaneous Outlet Capacity Lower nominal capacity Intermediate nominal capacity Higher nominal capacity
Best Selection Basis Actual fixture demand Actual fixture demand Actual fixture demand

These are general nominal flow classes rather than guaranteed delivery rates under every operating condition.

In warmer climates, incoming water may require less heating than in colder regions, but this does not eliminate the need for correct appliance sizing.

Rinnai Infinity 16 vs Rinnai Infinity 26: Which Size Is Better?

Rinnai Infinity 16

A compact 16 litre per minute class appliance generally suited to single bathroom homes and lighter to moderate hot water demand.

Worth considering where limited simultaneous usage and compact installation are priorities.

Rinnai Infinity 26

A higher-capacity 26 litre per minute class appliance generally better suited to homes with greater combined hot water demand.

Worth considering where multiple hot water fixtures may operate together.

A 26 litre class system has a nominal flow rating 10 litres per minute higher than a 16 litre class system, approximately 62.5% greater by rating.

That does not guarantee 62.5% more delivered hot water under every operating condition.

Gas supply requirements, appliance efficiency and temperature rise must also be considered.

Rinnai Infinity 16 vs Gas Storage Hot Water

Gas continuous flow and gas storage systems heat and deliver hot water differently.

Feature Rinnai Infinity 16 Gas Storage
Heating Method On demand Stored hot water
Conventional Storage Tank No Yes
Hot Water Capacity Limited by heating and flow capacity Limited by stored volume and recovery rate
Space Requirements Compact wall-mounted format Generally larger tank footprint
Storage Standby Heat Loss No conventional tank loss Storage heat losses occur
Replacement Considerations Gas supply, water flow, mounting and clearances Tank size, recovery, gas supply and location

Neither system type is automatically the better choice for every home.

The best option depends on hot water demand, existing services, available space and overall ownership costs.

Why Choose a Quality Hot Water System Instead of a Cheaper Alternative?

A cheaper hot water system is not always the better result once installation suitability, efficiency, reliability and household demand are considered.

With gas continuous flow systems, choosing purely on upfront price can result in an appliance that is undersized for the property's hot water requirements.

The Rinnai Infinity 16 is designed as a compact continuous flow solution for lighter to moderate residential demand.

Its value comes from being appropriately matched to a suitable home rather than simply being smaller than higher-capacity alternatives.

Even a quality system can disappoint if the gas supply is inadequate, the appliance is incorrectly sized or the installation location is unsuitable.

JR Gas & Water focuses on selecting the right product and completing the installation correctly.

Rinnai Infinity 16 Maintenance and Servicing

The Rinnai Infinity 16 should be maintained in accordance with current manufacturer recommendations.

Appropriate servicing helps support safe operation, reliable ignition, temperature control and hot water delivery.

Signs that a gas continuous flow system may need professional attention include:

Hot water failing to start
Unexpected hot water shutdowns
Fluctuating hot water temperatures
Reduced hot water flow
Unusual operating noises
Visible water leaks
Repeated appliance faults
Changes in normal system operation
