About Rinnai
Who they are
Rinnai Australia supplies products made locally and in Rinnai's manufacturing plants in Japan and elsewhere. Its home heating and cooling range covers single rooms and whole houses, and it is the one partner whose range also includes ducted gas heating and evaporative cooling alongside reverse cycle air conditioning.
That breadth matters in older Sydney and Blue Mountains homes that already have gas ducted heating. A Rinnai or Brivis system can add refrigerated cooling to the existing ductwork and grilles rather than starting again.

Current models are on Rinnai's own site. Your accredited dealer will tell you which ones suit your home.
The home range
What Rinnai makes for homes
Inverter split and multi-split systems
Wall-mounted units for one room, or several rooms on one outdoor unit, all on inverter compressors.
Ducted reverse cycle
Whole-house heating and cooling through ceiling outlets with zoning.
Ducted gas heating with add-on cooling
Brivis ducted gas heating with a refrigerated cooling unit added on, both using the same ductwork and grilles.
Evaporative cooling and cassettes
Evaporative systems for dry heat, and cassette units for rooms where a wall unit will not suit.
Worth asking your dealer about
- Wi-Fi controllers that can be fitted to an existing system and used from a phone
- One controller for gas ducted heating, evaporative cooling or add-on refrigerated cooling
- A range that includes hot water, so one maker can cover more of the home
What the partnership means for you
Trained dealers, one warranty, one Guarantee
Dealers trained and supported by Rinnai

The equipment warranty is Rinnai's
Faults in the equipment go to Rinnai under its warranty. The term and conditions are in the warranty documents that come with the system, and your dealer can help you lodge a claim.
The installation is covered by the ACDA Guarantee
If a member's new domestic installation falls short of the ACDA Standards, ACDA engages an independent Chartered Engineer to investigate and arrange correction. Read the Guarantee.
