Commercial Quality at Your Fingertips

Both commercial and residential customers benefit from the innovative new heat exchanger design of the LS Series. To achieve this level of performance, Rinnai engineers used finite element

analysis simulation to maximize thermal transfer and minimize thermal stresses. Rigorous high-temperature reliability testing confirmed the design. And now Rinnai delivers to you the most reliable, durable tankless water heater in our history.

This dual-use heat exchanger provides commercial customers a benefit unique to Rinnai: the ability to access a commercial-grade water heater at any of our over 2,000 distribution outlets. So, when emergencies occur and replacement units are needed immediately, you’ll no longer need to wait for a commercial unit.

Additional Commercial Features and Benefits:

•Variety of digital controllers allows precise control and monitoring.

•Available wireless controller (MC-502RC-1M/S) provides control from a central location, even on retrofits.

•Multi-unit options: the EZConnect™* cable (for 2 units) or MSA control boards (for 3 or more units**) allow units to be used in combination and in rotation, to avoid wearing out the first unit in a manifolded series.

•Exterior units can be mounted on outside walls or on rooftops with no additional protection or venting.

•Rinnai’s concentric venting system means zero clearance, sealed combustion, and single wall or roof penetration for maximum safety and installation simplicity.

*EZConnect feature is not available for the R63LSe.

**For each group of five units one MSA-M and three MSA-S control boards are required.

R98LS specifications

The Rinnai R98LS is a high-efficiency tankless water heater designed to provide endless hot water while minimizing energy consumption. This model is particularly appealing to homeowners seeking both convenience and savings. With advanced technology and a plethora of user-friendly features, the R98LS stands out in the competitive market of water heaters.

One of the key features of the Rinnai R98LS is its maximum output of 199,000 BTU per hour. This high capacity allows the unit to meet the demands of larger households or commercial applications, providing a continuous supply of hot water. Unlike traditional tank-style heaters that run out of hot water, the R98LS heats water on demand. This means that users can enjoy hot showers, run multiple appliances, and fill bathtubs simultaneously without worrying about depleting the hot water supply.

The R98LS utilizes a condensing technology that maximizes energy efficiency by incorporating a dual heat exchanger system. This design allows for a larger volume of heat extraction from the combustion process, resulting in an impressive energy factor (EF) rating of 0.95. Such efficiency translates into consistent energy savings, making it an eco-friendly option that reduces carbon emissions.

Another notable characteristic of the Rinnai R98LS is its compact design. Measuring just 26.5 inches tall, 18.5 inches wide, and 10 inches deep, this unit can easily fit into tight spaces, allowing flexibility in installation locations. Homeowners have the option to install the unit either indoors or outdoors, depending on their specific needs and available space.

The R98LS also comes equipped with advanced safety features, including a built-in freeze protection system and a flame failure device. The unit is microprocessor-controlled, which helps to monitor and adjust the heating process, ensuring optimal performance, safety, and longevity. Additionally, a remote control can be integrated for user convenience, enabling homeowners to set and adjust water temperatures effortlessly.

In summary, the Rinnai R98LS is a powerful and efficient tankless water heater that caters to the growing demand for reliable hot water solutions. With its innovative technologies, energy-saving capabilities, and user-friendly features, the R98LS is an investment that promises years of comfort and efficiency for any household or commercial establishment. Its unmatched performance and advanced reliability make it a top choice for those seeking modern heating solutions.
