Common faults with your gas heater can on most occasions be rectified with a service.

Some brands of gas heaters are fitted with self diagnostics electronics and other brand heaters are not. When a fault occurs, heaters with electronic diagnostics will display an error code on the display screen and other branded heaters will shut down. You can visit our error codes and faults (link to err pg) page for list of common gas heater faults and error codes. Any service or repair work should only be carried out by a qualified heater technician to ensure the repairs are up to standard and that any ongoing warranties are not voided. 

Generally for repairs or conversions to LPG or natural gas, there is a 10 – 14 day turn around.  All parts used are genuine Rinnai parts and come with a 1 year warranty.

What to expect when servicing your gas heater

Your gas heater technician will discuss any concerns and/or issues you may have with your gas heater. An overall inspection and assessment is undertaken prior to removing it from inside your home to be service outside of your residence (for portable heaters). Your technician will dismantle the outer casing of your heater and clean the debris and dust buildup inside your burner chambers, filters and throughout your heater.

Our Prospect Gas Heater Specialist technician will complete a thorough inspection and test the operation of your heater wiring harness, gas pressure, fan, solenoid valves, injectors, fuses, burner chambers and PCB board.  On completion, your technician will re-assemble your heater and connect it back inside your home.  A safety check is then undertaken of your connection point and hose and finally your Rinnai technician will check for gas leaks and carbon monoxide emissions.

To ensure your gas heater is performing efficiently, we recommend a yearly maintenance check for the Prospect area. Servicing your gas heater annually can uncover any malfunction or wear of your Rinnai gas heater before serious issues develop.  Carrying out repairs as soon as an issue is noticed is crucial as leaking or faulty gas heaters can pose serious health and safety risks.

• Ensure your room is well ventilated.
• Clean your heater filters regularly when turned off to reduce build up of dust.
• Don’t leave your heater running when you are not at home or when you go to bed.
• Be mindful not to keep aerosols or pressure pack cans near your heater
