Hi - Interested in this heater however I want to make sure it has the feature I need in terms of a timer. I want to use it in a space between, lets say 8am and 10pm. After that I dont want it on.
In the manual, the instructions state the following but Im not sure how to read this. I called Rinnai and the woman I spoke to didnt know, had to ask a manager and call me back. In the below, it mentions a delay. Does that mean if I want it to turn on at 8am, then at 7am I have to program it for a 1 hour delay. It will then know at 8am to turn on. And then, if I want it to turn off at 10pm, at 8am I would have to set the off timer for 14 hours from then so that it knows at 10pm to turn off? I don't quite get what the 60min delay off timer would do.
Operating the timer
The Timer feature allows you to delay the start time of the heater for up to 24 hours
Press the On Timer button . The On Time indicator will illuminate and the Combustion indicator will be illuminated green to confirm that the heater is awaiting for the Delay “ON” time period to pass before commencing operation. The Delay On Timer indicator will also illuminate and the current Delay On Time period will be displayed on the Digital (Temp / Time) display for 10 seconds. While displayed, the Delay “ON” time can be adjusted by pressing the Up or Down buttons . A delay me of up to 9½ hours can be set in increments of 30 minutes and a delay time of up to 24 hours in increments of 60 minutes. When the programmed Delay “ON” me period has passed, the heater will automatically begin operation.
Operating the off timer
The off timer allows you to set a 60 minute delay before the heater will automatically turn off.
To operate, press the Off Timer button . The Off Timer indicator will illuminate and the Combustion indicator will be illuminated red to confirm that the heater will continue operation until the Delay ‘off’ time period has passed after which it will stop. The Delay Off time is 60 minutes. When this time has passed, the heater will automatically stop operation and the Off Timer indicator will go out. During Off Timer operaon full manual control of the heater is available.
