Key Features

Condensing Efficiency
The stainless steel heat exchanger captures heat that conventional boilers waste — achieving up to 96.5% AFUE. Lower gas bills and reduced carbon footprint.
Modulating Comfort
Unlike on/off boilers that create temperature swings, the i-Series modulates from 15% to 100% output. Your home stays at a rock-steady temperature with no hot-cold cycling.
Multi-Zone Hydronic
Pair with zone valves or a multi-zone manifold to independently heat different areas of your home. Radiant floors upstairs, baseboard in the basement — one boiler handles it all.
Compact Wall-Mount
Mounts on the wall like a tankless water heater — freeing up valuable floor space. Direct-vent PVC exhaust means no chimney liner needed. Installation is simpler and less invasive than a traditional boiler.
Built for Canadian Winters
Hydronic heating is the gold standard for comfort in cold climates. Radiant warmth from the floor up, no forced air blowing dust, no cold spots. The i-Series is engineered to deliver this comfort efficiently.
10-Year Heat Exchanger Warranty
Rinnai backs the i-Series with a 10-year heat exchanger warranty and 5 years on parts when professionally installed. H&C handles all warranty registration for you.

Perfect If You're Looking To…

Replace an aging, oversized boiler with something compact and efficient. Add radiant floor heating to a new build or renovation. Upgrade from baseboard electric to hydronic warmth. Heat a multi-zone home with one quiet, wall-mounted unit.

Not Sure Which Size
Is Right for Your Home?

Sizing a boiler correctly is critical — too small and your home won't reach temperature on the coldest days, too large and you waste gas. Our licensed technicians perform a free heat-loss calculation and recommend the right i-Series model for your home and distribution system.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between a boiler and a furnace?
A furnace heats air and blows it through ducts. A boiler heats water and circulates it through radiators, baseboard, or radiant floor tubing. Hydronic (water-based) heating is generally more comfortable — radiant warmth from the floor up, no blowing air, no dust circulation, and very even temperatures throughout the home.
How much more efficient is a condensing boiler?
A condensing boiler like the i-Series achieves up to 96.5% AFUE — meaning 96.5 cents of every dollar of gas becomes heat. Older conventional boilers typically run 80–85% AFUE. That's 12–15% less gas for the same comfort, which adds up significantly over a Canadian winter.
What's the difference between heat-only and combi?
A heat-only boiler provides space heating only — you'll need a separate water heater for domestic hot water. A combi boiler does both: space heating and on-demand hot water in one unit. Choose heat-only if you already have a good water heater or need maximum heating capacity. Choose combi to consolidate into one appliance.
Can I use this with radiant floor heating?
Absolutely — the i-Series is ideal for radiant floor systems. Its modulating burner provides the low, steady water temperatures that radiant floors need. Combined with a mixing valve or zone manifold, it delivers luxurious radiant warmth throughout your home.
What maintenance does a boiler need?
Annual servicing is recommended — our technicians check water pressure, inspect the heat exchanger, verify ignition and safety controls, and flush the system if needed. Regular maintenance keeps the i-Series running at peak efficiency and extends its lifespan well beyond 15 years.
How long does installation take?
A straightforward boiler replacement (removing old unit, mounting new, connecting piping and venting) is typically completed in one day. New installations with radiant floor piping or multi-zone manifolds take 2–3 days. H&C handles everything: gas, water, electrical, and venting.

"Replaced our 25-year-old boiler with the Rinnai i-Series. The difference is night and day — perfectly even heat, no more cold spots, and our gas bill dropped by about 20%. The wall-mount unit freed up a huge amount of space in our utility room."

"We have radiant floors throughout our new build and the Rinnai handles all three zones perfectly. Water temperature is consistent, the modulating burner is incredibly quiet, and our energy bills are lower than we expected."

"Switched from baseboard electric to a hydronic system with the Rinnai i-Series. The comfort level is incredible — warm floors everywhere. H&C designed the whole system and had it running in two days."

James T.

"Our old boiler was 30 years old and we dreaded replacing it. H&C recommended the Rinnai i-Series and the installation was smooth. The condensing efficiency really shows on our gas bills — down about 25% from last year with the same comfort."

Nadia & Omar K.

"Rinnai i-Series running our baseboard hydronic system — quiet, efficient, and the wall mount means we got our laundry room back. H&C sized it perfectly for our 1,800 sq ft home."
