Living in a snow belt means not only heavy snowfalls, but very cold temperatures - often subzero. I normally heat my home (a bit under 1,000 square feet) with wood, but use natural gas in the autumn and spring because wood heat is just too darned warm and hard to control in those seasons. My home was built in the 50s as a summer (uninsulated) cottage originally served by a wall furnace. No heating vents or ducts. Over the years it has been winterized and the wall furnace replaced with a free standing Napoleon gas fireplace. The Napoleon was very pretty, but very inefficient, noisy, and dusty (no filters).I wanted to replace the Napoleon but also wanted to be sure I would not be replacing it with a product made in China. My heating contractor recommended the Rinnai ES38N direct vent wall furnace.Since this unit cannot be hooked into an existing chimney, it had to be installed in my den, which is next to a garage wall. The Rinnai was vented through the garage and an outside wall. Because of the location of the den, I was unconvinced this unit could heat my entire home, given the location of the other rooms. My contractor assured me it would, so I kept my fingers crossed and went ahead with the project.There was no need to turn on the Rinnai until mid-October and then I ran it on a very limited basis in the evening. Out of curiosity, I put a thermometer in every room of the house and was amazed to see that within 15 minutes of turning the unit on, the temperature in each room rose four or five degrees. The one problem I did note was that the temperature reading shown on the Rinnai was completely at odds with the actual room temperature shown on the den thermometer. I had to lower the setting on the Rinnai to keep the den from becoming too warm and that affected the temperatures throughout the rest of the house, causing them to be cooler than desired.After one unproductive call to my heating contractor, I studied the schematic in the owner's manual and saw that the heater's thermostat is located at the bottom, near the floor. This was reported to my heating contractor, who in turn contacted Rinnai. He was advised the thermostat location was an issue and that it should be moved higher. Once my contractor relocated the thermostat, the temperatures could be controlled better. However, it still is not completely accurate, always showing a reading at least five degrees cooler than the actual temperature in that room.I used the Rinnai to heat my home throughout November 2010. We had several snowstorms and very cold weather. The Rinnai performed very well and very efficiently. Naturally the den, where it's located, was the warmest room in the house, but the other rooms were only five to seven degrees cooler.My natural gas bill was lower in November 2010 than November 2009. Equally important was the fact there was no increase in my electric bill, which I had been concerned about given the Rinnai is fan driven.December brought colder temps and more snowstorms, so I began heating with my woodstove and use the Rinnai as a backup unit, programming it to turn on if the temperature went below 60F at night. I've never woken to a cold house. The unit also did an excellent job heating the house during my absence over the holidays.The top and sides of the unit remain cool during operation. In fact, I have a reading lamp and a few framed photos sitting on the top of the Rinnai. There are no replacement filters to purchase. There are two metal filters in the ES38N, which are pulled out and removed for cleaning. A weekly vacuum keeps them free from dust. There is also a water tray in the bottom of the unit for humidifying the air. I haven't used it yet. I purchased a white unit, which fits in very well with the white walls of the room. When the unit is first turned on, it makes some sound, but after a few minutes it is very quiet.All in all, it's a quite wonderful heater that I highly recommend.

I bought this to replace the original furnace in my 900 sq ft, 1986 Mobile Home located in North Dakota. I thought I may need to use supplemental heat during extended sub-zero temperatures, but the Rinnai has had no problem keeping the place warm- even when it's dropped to -24 outside. The house is situated on a block foundation, and I have replaced all of the windows with Low E units; also I sealed off the old heating ducts to get rid of any drafts. The previous owner had already updated the doors with full sized insulated units.The furnace is a little noisy when warming up the place in the morning, but when it's maintaining temperature it's very quiet. My last house was heated by a wood stove, and the Rinnai delivers constant, quiet heat in much the same way.My only complaint is with the shipping- if you do buy one of these, be sure to contact the seller and have them reinforce the bottom of the box, as mine appeared to have dropped out while it was being carried. There is a piece of particle board inside the bottom of the box, but the the outside needs to be encircled with strapping tape(or crated) because the box will not hold up well when it's sent by UPS. The damage to my unit was minor, but could have been prevented had the box been reinforced. I chose to install the Rinnai as it was, because the cold weather had arrived and I didn't want to delay getting it into service.

Very nicely made, high quality unit. Installed this in a customers 560 sq ft beach cottage. Installation was a breeze with all components included for direct through the wall installation except flex hose. Full size template on the outside of the carton provides all locations for brackets & flue. Only one 3" hole required for flue installation. An extension kit is required if you have to vent up and out. Nice programable thermostat & electronic ignition.
