Are you a fast runner?
If you are, run, run as fast as you can from Rinnai.

I had ECP75 installed to ~1450 s/f property in NH back in 2017.
Provides both heat and hot water.
It was installed by a Rinnai authorized/ certified installer/crook, listed on Rinnai website.

There were no rebates at the time, or I did not qualify since I am not a NH resident, or possible I missed it. Oh well.

Only one person at a time can shower.
You can not run the dishwasher or the washing machine if someone is taking a shower.
The unit is very efficient, my propane bill is comical.
The unit has 0 reliability factor. Every year, something breaks.
This valve, that gasket, some aluminum heat plate, mechanical switch.
Every F..n year.
It is now under Eastern Contract, so far they are doing a great job.
RUN, RUN from Rinnai as fast as you can.

In mass I have a 30+ year Burnham boiler for ~3000 s/f property.
Efficiency s..ks.
I call the plumber once every 5 to 6 years to clean the unit. That is it.
No other service is needed.

Best of luck.
