Rinnai Granada 252 Questions & Answers
VerifiedCan this be shipped to Norfolk Island?
Hi Connie, Apologies for the delay in reply to your question. Is your Granada 252 a Natural Gas or LPG Unit? If your Granada 252 is a Natural Gas Heater and the gas supply on Norfolk Island is LPG your heater will need to be converted to LPG for use on an LPG Gas supply. We advise checking the gas type for your heater and the gas supply on Norfolk Island.
To have your heater converted from one gas type to another we would recommend booking a service call. Please refer to our website with the following link external link or contacting our Service Department on 1300 555 545 (option 2).
Thanks

I bought the Titan mk2 thinking that would connect to a normal gas bottle but the connection its not the same and apparently you not meant to do it. So what bottle i need to buy or what connection? Thanks

My heater is about 2 years old and is excellent however in the last few days if I turn the fan on it seems to blow out the pilot light. Is that a heater problem or gas problem?
Last week I had to have my gas hot water unit serviced as the pilot would not light. Is there such a thing as dirty gas like dirty petrol that can cause mechanical problems with your car?
Hi Jinks,
Thanks for the question.
It may be a gas supply issue as gas can be affected by impurity’s like dust or corrosion.

Can this heater be used with/connected to a standard 9kg gas (BBQ) bottle? How long would a 9kg bottle likely last using the heater for 1-2 hours a day? Thanks!
Hi Brendan, Thanks for the question. AGA rules state that our heaters are to be connected by a bayonet point installed internally, not to a 9-kilo bottle like a BBQ. Should you wish to discuss this matter further we would recommend contacting our Technical Department. They can be reached on 1300 555 545 (option 3).

should the top grill on the heater get so hot that it burns to touch and discolours the enamel
No such problems with ours, front protective guard obviously gets hot but not the top. No sign of discolouration, we run ours with three burners on all the time. Regards Peter aka THe Bear ps suggest you contact Rinnai
Hi Roger H, Thanks for the question. Being that the heater is an unflued heater, we recommend for your safety to have the heater properly checked out by a gas service technician or our 1st service department on 1300 555 545.
Safety is important with all gas appliances and should be serviced every 2 years.
Thanks, Rinnai Australia
Hi I just received a Granada Mk2 off my parents and they said it hasn’t been lit for years. I plugged it in and tried it but couldn’t get it to stay lit. So it has a blue flame when ignited and stays lit but after you take your finger off the button (after 15-20) seconds it goes out. Can you help

Hello rinnai. My grandson has put a pencil into the granada mk2 fan unit and it has shattered. I see that it is easily replaced having taken off the front panel. Is it part number 90177684?.. Do I go to reece plumbing to order it.. Thank you - Louis
Not sure what to do now. I have submitted my question above to you
Hi Louis,
Thanks for the question. The part no 90177684 is correct for 252 fan replacement, this part can be ordered through Reece Plumbing Supplies.

Hi - my ignition doesn't work on my gas heater, but it all works fine when I use a separate fire lighter to light the fire. Any advice on how I could get the ignition on the heater to work? Thanks
Hi Nik v, a service call would be required to diagnose and repair the unit.
You can book online here:

Thanks Rinnai Australia
Hi - thanks for that - the ignition is now working but the first button isn't staying down so the gas won't remain on. Any advice?
Hu Nik v, has the unit been serviced recently? We do recommend servicing gas appliances every 2 years to ensure maximum safety and reliability. Without inspection it is difficult to diagnose what may be causing the issue.
Thanks Rinnai Australia
May I know what the costs of a servicing is? I live in 2094
Hi Nik V, The Rinnai service costs for portable heaters is $225.00 for the call out which includes up to 45 minutes. Anything over this time is charged at $40.00 per 15 mins thereafter. All terms and conditions of service are on the booking link above.
Thanks Rinnai Australia
