holy crap...nice gas-line.
sloppy piping...using a domestic hot water heater is truly hack....can't be canadian...because our code does not allow it....I just finished a Vitodens 200 installation today...$35,000...and it looks like a a work of art.....that mess looks horrible.

An open system is a bad idea. Regardless of whether the system's open or closed, the EXPANSION TANK doesn't regulate the pressure. It's there for thermal expansion that occurs when the water is heated.

Rinnai is only rated at 82%. Tankless is approved for combo systems. This is not a constant circulation system, it is a recirculation system which circulates only when there is a call for heat. This type of system is simpler, less expensive, and requires less maintenance than a boiler with an indirect water heater. It is more efficient than indirect fired hot water systems and is, in most respects safer than indirect systems.
shouldn't the expansion tank be "upside down?" the way its mounted here, the air bubbles in the system will fill it up over time

With a bladder type expansion tank, it doesn't really matter which position it is installed in.
