NPN-199E FAQs

½” gas pipe can be used when installing a NPE-2 condensing gas tankless water heater as long as it is sized appropriately.

Pipe size, length of gas pipe, and pressure drop are all factors that affect gas delivery.

Please refer to the National Fuel Gas Code gas pipe sizing table to ensure you have sufficient gas supply for the unit.

No, it is not required that the NPE-2 condensing tankless gas water heater be the first appliance off the gas meter.

It can be installed using the existing infrastructure and can go in place of a traditional tank water heater so long as the gas line is sized appropriately and can deliver sufficient gas supply to the unit.

The NPE-2 is approved to be vented with 2”vent material (maximum length of 75 feet, maximum of 6 elbows, and reduce 8 linear feet per 90° elbow). 3” vent material can also be used (maximum length of 150’, maximum of 8 elbows, and reduce 5 linear feet per 90° elbow).

Navien’s patented ComfortFlow® system is the first to include a buffer tank, recirculation pump and fine-tuned controls into a tankless water heater, resolving the cold-water sandwich effect* and issues of minimal flow rates commonly found in other tankless water heaters.

 

* The “cold-water sandwich effect” is the undesired introduction of cold water into the hot water supply line on occasions of frequent on/off operations. (Measure Guideline : Transitioning to a Tankless Water heater, DOE, Sept.2012).

Yes, the NPE-2 can be mounted outdoors using the Navien Outdoor Vent Kit.

The issue is most likely the flow sensor inside the unit is not spinning properly.

We recommend opening and closing the pressure relief valve (should be located near the outlet of the unit). Depending on amount of debris affecting the flow sensor, this may help temporary. We recommend contacted your original installer or an NSS to service the sensor.

If you feel like there is an issue with your unit, please have someone contact Navien Technical Support while in front of the unit with your Serial Number ready. We recommend that a license contractor, original installer, or NSS contact is the person who calls us, so we may do in depth troubleshooting to determine if there is a part failure.
