    Rinnai has been delivering nothing but the best for almost 100 years and that award-winning dedication can't help but be noticed in its SE+ Series. The RUC98iP and all of the SE+ Series models offer Rinnai's incredibly efficient condensing design line of tankless heaters. Rinnai's SE+ Series models utilize two premium heat exchangers to provide optimal reliability and durability. With a 0.92 Uniform Energy Factor and a sleek, innovative design, the RUC98iP is the ultimate option, and is easily maintained thanks to included isolation valves.
  • Compact design saves space.
  • The RUC98iP is designed to be able to be installed on any wall or in any compact space. With flexible venting options allowing for direct, concentric or twin pipe installations, Rinnai tankless water heaters are perfect for any home.
  • Energy-efficient promise that saves you money.
  • Tankless water heaters avoid the need to keep a large amount of reserve water heated at all times. This saves energy by only heating water when you need it, while an entirely electric ignition avoids the constantly wasted energy of a standing pilot light.
  • Continuous Water for Multiple Applications
  • Rinnai tankless water heaters provide an endless supply of hot water that remains uninterrupted, even when you're the last one in line for the shower.

Medium Learn More
Medium
Medium refers to the substance that carries heat through the heating system. Systems are either designed to use either Hot Water or Steam as a medium, and components are usually specific to one or the other.
Hot Water
Fuel Type Learn More
Fuel Type
To create heat, some form of fuel is required. Fuel Type specifies what the product uses as an input to create heat.
Liquid Propane
Combustion Type Learn More
Combustion Type
Condensing appliances use leftover thermal energy from combustion gases to heat water in a secondary heat exchanger, resulting in higher efficiency and lower exhaust temperature.
Condensing
Vent Type Learn More
Vent Type
Products that use combustion (burning) of fuel to create heat also create potentially dangerous gasses that need to be exhausted (AKA "Vented"). Depending on the product, venting can be done via a chimney, through a side wall, or use a second vent to provide fresh air to the appliance.
