Is the gas line to this heater visible. Or is it inside the wall or outside the house?

I ran mine through the floor. I have a crawl space. I guess its where ever you can get a gas line to it. I dont know how your house is setup

You have to have an outlet for the gas at the site of the heater but it is tucked in and covered by the heater itself.

You can't see through it - it should be ok as long as it does not touch the heater but I would check with the mfg

It looks to be a perforated area in the lid that could be punched out to fit a heater. Hope that helps.

Hi Erin, the unit measures the temperature of the surfaces it 'sees'. If you cannot actually see the heater, I suggest you take comparative readings of a surface that will warm when the heater is on and cool when it is off. This will give you a base for future readings to determine whether the heater is working or not. I hope this is of assistance. Cheers, Ken

I use the rubber hose to connect my heater from the gas line, however it's all in the same room. I would check about local regulations/homeowner's insurance about going through a wall with a rubber hose. I know running an electrical cord through a wall can void your homeowner's insurance as it's a safety violation; I imagine the same would apply for a gas hose.

This heater must be attached to the wall. The gas pipe comes up through the floor and the valve is under the heater.

The gas inlet is on the left lower back side --about 4-5 inches from the side if you are standing directly in front of the stove. Works great, ours is in our sunroom and my husband has the thermostat set to come on to supplement the heat pump unit when it is too cold for the heat pump to heat alone. Our cats lay on top of the stove. Hope this helps! I really like ours and this is it's second winter.

I think the red light comes on when the heater comes on. No idea why you'd need to know that, since the plate is hot either way. I am returning mine, it leaks all over the place, including from where the wire attaches to the iron!

I put mine on the side of the furnace where I can see the light and down low , so if there is a leak , it will detect gasses. I think the gas is usually heavy and sinks to the ground, nothing else needed. I put it visible to check the battery and easy access

The one I received had two prongs, one side being wider than the other. I only use the heater when I am present in the room. I do not leave it unattended and running

This is a newer model Rinnai. The older models allowed the gas lines to be located behind the unit out of sight. The instructions per this unit wanted the gas line showing outside of the unit with access to the shutoff valve. This change might be more of a code issue than what Rinnai actually needs. Either Rinnai or a licensed heating sub would be able to split that hair to definitively answer. You could also google the model # and get the installation manual online. You would be able to read for yourself the gas requirements.

All heating system need some ventilation... so just open one window 1" for let fresh air come to the heater. And yes you well need a gas line to operate the heater.

There is a double wall on this heater. I was thinking like you where this is concerned. I had an older heater of this type that i could leave a pot of water on. The top of this one is only warm.

Lee the line running near to the heater is 1/2" then reduced to 3/8". Hope that helps.
