Rinnai and the art of Zen + Zen Plus

Rinnai, global leaders in continuous flow hot water heating products and systems, is introducing the Zen and Zen Plus home hot water & heating system.

This system marries established and proven manufacture durability with new technologies, to offer great energy efficiencies, user control and, importantly, unparalleled level of comfort.

Rinnai UK will be launching this innovation, plus several other cutting-edge appliances during the year.

The Rinnai Zen and Zen Plus system will increase comfort and reduce energy usage whilst also providing a highly economically solution for today’s changing marketplace.

Chris Goggin, head of Rinnai UK operations, commented: “Our core expertise is the mass production of long-term reliable combustion products with advanced technologies – we are a global leader and make over two million water heating units every year for domestic, residential and commercial applications.

“We have been researching and monitoring the UK domestic heating market for several years until we had a proven system.

“That time is now, and we are offering hot water heating units together with a superior performance combi boiler in 24, 29- and 35-kW outputs.

“We are not launching into the mass UK boiler market – that is, in our view, a saturated and oversubscribed market which is in the throes of a major upheaval in its structure due to the advent of online direct sales platforms.

“We are offering something very different. And we are aiming to serve a market sector previously overlooked and almost ignored – the provision of luxury levels of hot water at affordable sums to the middle and top end of the marketplace.

“Another major difference with the Rinnai Zen & Zen Plus is that the route to market is with installers. We are committed to working with installers as our route to market. The installer is still the major player and, in our view, always will be.”

Some of the features of Zen & Zen Plus include…

 – IOT controller as standard
 – Fast heating mode;
 – DHW pre-heat function – saving wasted water
 – Energy monitor function allows user to monitor energy usage
 – flue runs up to 30 metres
 – Rinnai boiler App for android and IOS
 – constant temperature-accurate hot water delivery at continuous flow rates.

There is also smart Wifi controller and App benefits – the Rinnai app seamlessly connects to the controller in the property and the user can control the boiler remotely adjusting temperature, setting weekly and daily programmes, receiving alarm functions, monitor energy usage and set limits.

The Wifi and boiler controller also uses GPS from the user’s mobile to bring on the heat when you are getting close to home to ensure the house is warm when you arrive.

Rinnai Zen & Zen Plus are available for use with both natural gas and LPG.
