Rinnai IP060160C
The Rinnai IP060160C is the smallest I-Series+ combi: 15 to 60 MBH central-heating input with DHW input to 160 MBH and 7.9 GPM maximum hot-water flow in one wall-hung condensing appliance, rated up to 96% AFUE in Rinnai's Canadian marketing.

Rinnai IP060160C in practice
The IP060160C is Rinnai's entry I-Series+ combi: a wall-hung condensing boiler that heats from 15,000 to 60,000 BTU/h of input and fires up to 160,000 BTU/h for on-demand domestic hot water at up to 7.9 GPM. It is the smallest of the five combis documented in full on Boilers.ca, with specifications from the English I&O manual, doc 800000190(02) (10/2024).
Weighing 73 lb in the small chassis (18.5 in wide, 11.5 in deep), the unit carries 0.75 gal of CH water and includes a 30 PSI CH pressure relief valve; venting is 2" PVC/polypropylene twin pipe (75 equivalent ft maximum) or the 3" x 5" concentric option, and supply connections are 3/4" NPT gas and DHW with 1" NPT heating connections.
Rinnai Canada's I-Series+ marketing claims up to 96% AFUE for the family; the manual's spec table prints no per-model AFUE figure, so the rating shown here is the manufacturer's claim. Central heating setpoint ranges 86°F-180°F and DHW 98°F-140°F per spec Table 2.
Best suited to
- Homes whose heat-loss calculation fits under 60 MBH of central-heating input
- Households wanting on-demand domestic hot water without a separate tank
- Compact mechanical rooms: the 18.5 x 11.5 in chassis hangs on a wall

Frequently asked questions
What does IP060160C mean?
The code reads CH input over DHW input: 60,000 BTU/h for central heating and 160,000 BTU/h for domestic hot water. The product page describes it as "CH 60k / DHW 160k".
How much hot water can the IP060160C deliver?
Up to 7.9 GPM maximum DHW flow per the I&O manual spec table (4.1 GPM at a 70°F temperature rise), with DHW input reaching 160,000 BTU/h. Delivery depends on incoming water temperature.
Is the IP060160C vented in PVC?
Yes. The vent connection is 2" nominal PVC or polypropylene, with a maximum equivalent length of 75 ft in 2" twin-pipe per the I&O manual; a 3" x 5" concentric option is also listed.
