    Try calling a service company. The gas company's only concern is gas leaking or CO levels!

    Not the gas company. Call your Rinnai dealer or installer.

    So brand new? Did it ever work and if so how long? Was it installed by the gas company or someone else?

    So apparently they didn't do a combustion test on initial fire, or it wouldn't have fired long enough to do the test. Ugh, the gas company.
