ngunadi 2 Report post Posted April 16, 2010 The inner flame from rinnai or spiral flame from fujioh are definitely provide stronger flame compared to original conventional type. From my experience, if i use a very small fire, it's not wind proof. The wind can blow the fire off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Actually I am still searching for a shop that perhaps could show us how big the flame would till today couldn't find. Because no shop would connect it to gas pipe Rinnar inner flame is very expensive ... around $800 just for the burners Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lachesis 0 Report post Posted April 22, 2010 Heya, Was also looking at the inner burner. I called the Rinnai showroom to ask about it. The inner burner is not wind-proof, it's just harder for the wind to blow out the flame. Am considering getting the one with the safety valve feature, i.e. if a gas leak is detected like when the wind blows off the flame, the gas will be automatically cut off. Handy for those with windy kitchens! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lachesis 0 Report post Posted April 23, 2010 Does the Rinnai inner burner comes with LPG option? Hi, I think all their hobs can connect to both LPG and piped-in gas (i.e. City Gas), but if you have a model in mind can double check with them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reiki 0 Report post Posted April 23, 2010 My experience: - The Rinnai Inner-Flame hob is indeed powerful. It cooks/fries food faster. - It can be connected to LPG. - There is a safety valve feature - If not mistaken, when there is gas leakage for certain seconds, it will auto shut.

penguin123 0 Report post Posted April 27, 2010 I'm using Rinnai 3 inner burner... superb! as Reiki told, the foods cook much faster and save gas... but 1 thing have to take note is, food easily get burn! Maybe i'm still not use to it yet... as the burner really work 2x faster than usual stove.. 1 more thing, the on off button, have to twist and hold and only release when you hear 'tick' sound. initially tried so many times but couldnt turn on the fire, it will just bounce back :S reiki, really have the auto shut thing?

Hi noobhouse, The burner levers require an initial push-in and then twist while still pushing 'till you hear a click before you release. As for the SV, basically it cuts off gas after the burner detects no-flame for a few seconds if I'm not mistaken. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
