Before you start
Unpack the appliance and components and check for damage. DO NOT install any damaged
items. Check all components have been supplied, refer below, and that you have the correct gas
type.
Read these instructions to get an overview of the steps required before starting the installation.
Failure to follow these instructions could cause a malfunction of the appliance. This could result in
serious injury and/or property damage.
Coaxial / colinear ueing
Images are representative of some ueing options, components will be dependent on ue
conguration and installation.

Optional accessories
Novo Inbuilt classic bronze frame
R2380
Designed to complement those older villa style
homes.
The classic frame is curved and comes with a
inset bronze dress guard.
Novo Inbuilt mesh frame
R2370
The Novo Inbuilt black mesh frame is an
accessory for the Novo black standard frame.
The black integrated mesh guard can be easily
installed, no xing required. It is designed to
protect against touching the hot surface of the
glass1.
Novo Inbuilt masonry inll panel
R2373
Black powder coated panel for masonry
installations where the cavity is slightly larger
than the frame. The panel will cover the gap
behind the re and the standard rectangular
frame. It is not suitable for the classic bronze
frame.
Wi-Fi module retrot kit
R7000
The Rinnai R7000 Wi-Fi board retrot kit
enables the re to be connected to the Rinnai
Fire Wi-Fi App for full thermostatic control, as
well as other features such as timers. Ideally
installed at the time of installation.
1The mesh will still get very hot—it is not a re guard

Specication
A direct vent (room sealed) inbuilt gas replace with glass
front and convection fan, pushing warm air from the top of the
appliance. Operated using a simple IR remote to control ame
height and fan speed, or by the Rinnai Wi-Fi app (optional
accessory) that allows full thermostatic control, as well as other
features such as timers.
Input: 14-30 MJ/h
Output: 3-6.6 kW*
E󰀩ciency: 80%
Heating area: 65-112 m2**
Gas type: NG or ULPG
* Will vary according to gas type and ue conguration
** Will vary depending on location in NZ
Suitability Suitable for masonry installations and installations into a mock chimney
in open plan areas and living rooms. As a room sealed appliance it can
also be installed in larger bedrooms as long as this meets the 6.10.6.1
requirements of AS/NZS 5601.1.
Data plate Lower RHS of the base panel (in front of the gas control)
Convection fan 120 V AC 50 Hz 2-speed centrifugal blower
Gas connection Brass ½ “ BSPT male tting. The gas supply terminates inside the unit—
lower RHS of the appliance.
Ignition 230-240 V AC 50 Hz high voltage electronic spark generation
Installation considerations Room size, smaller rooms will heat up quickly, and due to the heat of the
appliance, the re will turn to a low setting once the set temperature has
been reached.
Flue masonry Colinear* direct vent exi ue, air intake Ø75 mm, exhaust Ø100 mm
Flue mock chimney Coaxial** direct vent ue, inner Ø100 mm, outer Ø170 mm.
Noise level 37-45 dB(A)
Electrical A 1.5 m power cord with a thee pin plug is supplied. The power cord passes
through a slot in the back left hand corner of the appliance.
High - 50 W Standby - <3 W
Safety devices Flame failure sensing system, pressure relief, overheat safety switch, air
temperature sensor, thermal fuse, overcurrent fuse, and spark detection.
Temperature control Operated by using the basic IR remote to control ame height and fan
speed, or for more features, such as timers and thermostatic control, using
Rinnai’s Wi-Fi replace controller app—Wi-Fi module purchased as an
optional accessory.
Weight Approx. 64 kg
* Colinear: Uses TWO separate exible aluminium chimney liners as the ue system
** Coaxial: One ue, the exhaust ue is nested inside the air intake ue—these are rigid ues

Combustible clearances
The Novo must not be installed where curtains,
furniture, or other combustible materials
could come into contact with the re while
it is operating. The 400 mm side clearance,
measured from the edge of the glass, includes
side walls. The 1000 mm clearance is in front of
the re.
Hearths
A hearth is not necessary but can be used for
decorative purposes. It must not obscure the
front of the re or obstruct the re in any way.
Flooring and hearth material selection
The temperature in front of the Novo can
reach up to 40 °C above ambient, which is
why material selection is important. For more
information refer next page.
Floor protection
Heat radiating from the re may a󰀨ect the
appearance of some materials used for ooring
such as vinyl planks, carpet1, cork, or timber. To
avoid this occurring it is recommended a mat
be placed in front.
1Carpet cannot be tted hard up against the re as it will a󰀨ect
operation.
Mantles and surrounds
Combustible mantels and surrounds require
clearance from the unit to minimise the risk
of re. They are allowed providing they are
outside the minimum clearances shown.
The Novo gas replace is not designed to be
built into bookcases.

Flooring and hearth material selection
Flooring and hearth material selection
The temperature in front of the re (200-350 mm x 400 mm wide) can reach up to 40 °C above
ambient, which is why material selection is important, some guidelines are detailed below. For
example we know that vinyl planks are only rated for ambient temperatures which is why the re
would not be suitable for installation directly on the oor.

DNo restriction Not suitable for carpets or any heat sensitive materials
1 Refer oating hearth section below
Just because a material is rated >60 °C doesn’t mean it will not deteriorate when exposed to heat
cycles. Always refer to the materials supplier for suitability. The temperatures given are assuming
the re is operating in a room temperature of no more than 25 °C. Operation in higher ambient
temperatures may result in higher surface temperatures. Non-combustible materials should be
made of a heat resistant material.
Floating hearth - low rated and unrated ooring materials
For unrated ooring materials, if you use a non-combustible oating hearth, the dimensions of the
hearth, minimum depth, and minimum height, can be tweaked using the following calculations:
• Min. hearth depth (A) = 4502-height of hearth (for 50 °C rated materials it will be 400)
• Min. hearth height = 4502-depth of hearth (for 50 °C rated materials it will be 400)
Example
If you wanted a 200 mm deep non-combustible hearth, the calculation for hearth height would be:
450 - hearth depth (A) (450-200 = 250). The non-combustible hearth height would need to be
250 mm minimum.
This would mean the oating hearth dimensions could be 200 mm deep and 250 mm high.

The Novo has a fan that distributes warm air from the top of the appliance out into
the room. As warm air is dispersed outwards and not directly upwards, installation
of a TV may be an option.
The general rule for television installations
is that the bottom of the television should
be at least 400-450 mm above the re.
For a TV mounted directly above the re,
the mantel must be at least the depth of the
TV to deect heat away.
Always check with the TV manufacturer
It is up to the owner to check the TV
installation with the TV manufacturer—
some have warranty conditions that state a
TV is not to be installed above a replace.
Rinnai does not accept any responsibility
for damage to a TV resulting from the use
of this information.
