Navien boiler

[southcoastboile]

Has anyone had any experience with this boiler?

apparently they are massive in America and a top end boiler but they are trying to break the uk market so can be had cheaply at the moment?

I don't know them, but looking at their website, I suspect that they are either Korean or Chinese. Part of the KyungDong group.

My understanding is that they have exclusive arrangements with HPS in the South. Not sure about the north, where HPS don't have a presence.

Never heard of this brand. But way up in the north were always last to hear about things when the pigeons arrive with the daily news attached to there ankles . Lol

saves space , that allows you to spread all that pipe work over the wall

...excuse me, when their garages are larger than your average British home space has got to be a consideration.

This is the result of the US dashing for fracked gas isn't it, US gas prices at an all time low so their gas boiler manufacturers catching up and then thinking we want their gear.

I don't think that they are American antdad. See Nostrum's post #6

 

[antdad]

Doh, diverter valve stuck.

 

[IDCHAPPY]

For the money, they are a reasonable landlords bet.
Opentherm and weather comp built in
Ideal hydro block and flueing system

Ray, not exclusive to Hps but are from the main buying group that Hps purchases from and currently Hps are the only ones selling them of the chains.

The water heaters look nice.

Their oil boilers are retailed in Ireland by saturn

Their boilers are possibly going to be rebranded for Ireland by a certain cylinder manufacturer
*whistles*

 

[billybob150811]

mate bought one but I think you have to fit a lot of external gear that normally comes as part of a boiler here

 

[Killy Bing]

Nope. All in it....

 

[billybob150811]

you could well be right he was showing it to me on his phone which was a bit hard to see but we were saying stuff like were is the expansion vessel and the pump there a lot of teckno gear inside the boiler I don't know if their offering training as it looked like it had a lot that could go wrong

 

[Killy Bing]

Expansion vessel is in the mounting bracket.

Same as any other equivalent boiler really inside . Can play around with the software a little but imho no one is going to be fitting them in those situations in the UK while you have Atag and viessmann available.

Plenty of space inside but they are a bigger boiler. Like the older vailliants

 

[Ray Stafford]

Mods - if you wouldn't mind moving this to the Arms, I might be able to add some details...

"They include a pump

I like that feature"

 

[Killy Bing]

Lpc they are the first real combis that are becoming popular in america, usually it's all warm air, direct fired water heaters or "furnaces" aka force draught gas or oil boilers

To them, it's new.

To us it's old hat [emoji23][emoji23]
Funny, for once it's not us is the dark ages

 

[lame plumber]

Ray should export all his old stock to the states for loads of money, save discounting it to us
