I have a Rinnai Energy Saver 551F Model # RHFE-551FA-P It was intalled right next to an outside wall and was vented directly through the wall to outside. Can this same heater be installed in a new location and vented vertically through the ceiling? There is an existing flue in this location right to the roof. It is a one storey bungalow.
This unit can be vented through the roof but requires a specialized flue system-do not use an existing flue connection. Call a contractor - have them check and see if the unit can be modified to a vertical flue- it will require the existing piping to be replaced--Not a job for a do-it yourselfer
