    Rinnai R85

    There are a few comments below about people having their Rinnai water heater stop working on them suddenly.  The very first thing I would recommend is unplugging the unit from the wall for 2-3 minutes and then plugging the system back in.  This works to reset the internal computer and may clear the error code causing the shutdown.
