Better research, better technology Certain companies, like Rinnai, have ramped up their research and development and greater high quality products that the benefit consumers comfort and pocket book. One example of technical advancement is Rinnai’s advanced modulating gas valve technology. Their appliances detect even the smallest degree of temperature change and respond immediately with incremental BTUs on a continuous basis, so all Rinnai gas appliances deliver superior performance and maximum energy efficiency. Companies both domestic and international are realizing that this type of dedication to product improvement is resulting in greater sales and customers satisfaction. Rinnai is one of many companies that have made changes necessary to advance the wide spread use of natural gas appliances while also appealing to the needs of the consumer. Every one of their tankless water heaters is designed to capture up to 85 percent of the appliance’s heat energy, resulting in up to 50 percent savings in energy costs. Rinnai’s “green” technology even contributes to cleaner air and a healthier environment, because it produces less CO2 and NOx than conventional gas or electric water tanks.
