"Experience the luxury and comfort of a hydronic system without the hassle of a major renovation. The Navien Hydro Furnace is your premier choice for replacing outdated, inefficient forced-air furnaces."
On the topic of modern home heating and comfort, the Navien Hydro Furnace stands out as a pinnacle of efficiency, innovation, and comfort. The Navien Hydro Furnace is a revolutionary hydronic forced air furnace that features a stainless steel hydronic heat exchanger, condensing technology, and a high-efficiency variable capacity blower and modulating gas burner, allowing the NPF to operate from 15-100% capacity for both natural gas and propane applications. Let's delve into the features, benefits, and advantages that make the Navien Hydro Furnace a top choice for discerning homeowners seeking to upgrade their older, inefficient forced air furnace.
Efficiency and Energy Savings
One of the key highlights of the Navien Hydro Furnace is its exceptional efficiency and energy-saving capabilities. The Variable Speed Blower Motor Optimizes Furnace Performance for Lower Cost, Longer Lifespan, and Greater Comfort with Whisper-Quiet Operation.
The NPF’s Electronically Commutated Motor (ECM) achieves greater efficiency than traditional PSC motors, and qualifies for most gas furnace efficiency incentives.. The modulating condensing boiler adjusts its output based on demand, ensuring precise temperature control and minimal energy consumption. Additionally, the heat pump utilizes ambient air to heat or cool water, further enhancing energy efficiency.
The NPF’s variable speed blower also:
Provides increased electrical efficiency because it can match the exact airflow requirements of the HVAC system
Ensures optimal comfort & reduces unnecessary energy consumption for lower energy bills thanks to fine-tuned control
Operates with Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) accessories in continuous “fan-on” mode at less cost than traditional blower motors
Has soft start & stop capabilities which minimize power surges, extend the service life of the blower & reduce strain on the overall HVAC system
Can run at lower speeds than traditional blower motors, reducing noise levels
NPF: Where High Performance Meets High Efficiency
With 97% AFUE, the NPF hydro-furnace is substantially more efficient than older, less-efficient forced-air furnaces. Benefits include:
Supply & return air temperature sensors
Compatible with modern high-efficiency, high-static air filtration systems
Sustains airflow up to 1.0” external static pressure
Dual-fuel compatible (gas or electric) when paired with any AHRI-matched heat pump
Humidity control compatible (both passive & active) when paired with any heat pump or AC system - just add a humidistat
Flexible control system allows full variable capacity operation with a one or two-stage thermostat
NPF dynamically adjusts airflow and heat capacity to match the load requirements of the conditioned space.
Simplify Setup
NPF’s user-friendly control panel makes it easy for technicians to configure the unit &, reduces downtime.
Unit-mounted control panel provides direct readout in clear text, including diagnostic alerts & reminders
Control panel includes Set-Up Wizard that walks installer through simple unit configuration
Independent settings for discharge air temperature & air flow allow the system to optimize performance
Adjust & monitor supply and return air temperatures using the built in sensors
Integrated non-volatile self-diagnostics make identifying & correcting any problem a snap
Status panel provides easy-to-read graphics & settings information
Comfort and Quiet Operation
One of the quietest furnaces in the industry is made possible by the combination of isolated combustion that occurs outside of the airstream, variable capacity operation and intelligent blower ramping.
SIMPLIFIED Installation
Navien’s NPF hydro-furnace is advanced, not complicated.
New NPF700 furnace will match with standard width coils
Standard left-side gas, electrical & water connections are field convertible to right side
Unit can be manually filled with water or attached to an active water source using a ¼” connection
Clearly marked Molex terminal strip & board located at the front of the blower compartment make control wire connection quick & easy
Factory-formed full perimeter discharge flange makes duct connections & sealing easy
On high-airflow installations, the profile readily allows side & bottom return
Each unit is supplied with an LP conversion kit, as well as a natural gas high-altitude kit for installations up to 10,100 ft elevation
Every NPF model is approved for one or two pipe vent installations
service friendly maintenance
NPF’s innovative design includes thoughtful features for painless maintenance:
Flame rod and igniter are readily accessible for inspection
Separate blower door allows you to leave the blower compartment sealed while cleaning or servicing
Single-side return matches with standard size filter boxes or return air drops
Trap has a removable bottom to make annual cleaning quick
Fully insulated cabinet with cleanable insulation
If the water system requires service, a drain down valve is conveniently located at the bottom of the unit, accessible from the front
Minimize Harmful Emissions & Your Carbon Footprint
The Navien NPF delivers comfort while remaining a steward for the environment. With an AFUE of 97% the NPF delivers reliable home heating while efficiently minimizing resource consumption. The Navien NPF also minimizes emissions and meets the SCAQM ultra-low NOx emission requirement of 14ng/j. NOx emissions contribute to the formation of smog and acid rain, ultimately having negative effects on water quality.
Navien hydro-furnaces are a great choice for environmentally conscious homeowners.
