Navien has introduced the new NCB700 combi-boiler, designed to provide both space heating and domestic hot water for homes. This updated unit features improved efficiency and a more compact design for easier installation.
Why it matters
Updating a home boiler system to a high-efficiency model can significantly lower monthly utility costs through better fuel utilization. The NCB700 targets households looking to maximize space while managing both heating and hot water needs.
The unit offers space-heating inputs up to 150,000 Btuh and domestic hot water inputs up to 210,000 Btuh across five different models. It is built two inches shorter than its predecessor to assist with tight-fit installations.
The players
Navien
A global manufacturer known for its line of high-efficiency tankless water heaters and residential boiler systems.
The details
The NCB700 uses dual stainless steel heat exchangers to achieve its 96% efficiency rating. Navien ON technology learns household hot water usage patterns to optimize preheat scheduling and recirculation. Maintenance is simplified by an external air intake filter that allows for cleaning without opening the system cabinet.
