Great Video! Thanks! I didn't see any drain lines attached. You told us about the acid neutralizing unit but where does the neutralized material go?

Thank you! At marker 19:20, the white box at the bottom is a special condensate pump. It has acid neutralizing beeds inside. The discharge is piped the the stand pipe of the washing machine drain.

Really clean work man I recently took a class with navien and they said not to hook it up to a gfci to use a regular plug what are your thoughts on that I’m not against it I’m just curious

Our local code states that anything deal with water must have a gfci. It will fail inspection without. I also confirm with my father who is a licensed electrician. That's very interesting though I'll look into and get back to you.

So according to the navien installation rep. " I believe by code if it is the only outlet in the basement it has to be gfci, it can cause nuisance calls. So we teach them in class to avoid them if you can. But sometimes you have to use them. "

@@DOLPEDIY In a basement the NEC requires all receptacles to be gfci protected except for the one for a fire/security system. Just because someone at Navien says something different it doesn't matter. The code comes first.

How do you decipher if intake pvc run can collect to the basement or has to be outside
@DOLPEDIY
14 күн бұрын
For a Navien tankless water heater, it's generally recommended to intake air from outside to ensure proper combustion and to avoid drawing in potentially contaminated air from the basement. However, there are a few conditions under which you might be able to run the intake inside the basement: 1. **Adequate Ventilation:** If the basement has adequate ventilation and fresh air supply, you might be able to use indoor air for combustion. Ensure that the room has enough openings or vents to bring in fresh air from outside. 2. **Local Codes and Manufacturer Guidelines:** Always check local building codes and the manufacturer's installation guidelines. Some areas might have specific requirements or restrictions regarding indoor vs. outdoor air intake. 3. **Avoiding Contaminants:** Ensure that the air in the basement is free from contaminants like chemicals, dust, and fumes, which could affect the performance and safety of the water heater. 4. **Space Requirements:** Make sure the basement has enough space to provide the necessary air volume for combustion, as specified by Navien's installation manual. 5. **Sealed Combustion:** If the unit is designed for sealed combustion (direct vent), it typically requires both intake and exhaust to be piped directly to the outside. It's always best to follow the manufacturer's instructions and consult with a professional if you're unsure. Do you have a specific model or installation scenario in mind?

Looks good man. Any reason why you didn't make the plywood backing wider instead of longer so you didn't to drill into the cement to strap the pipping?

What size gas line does this unit require to run? My line is 1/2 right now and in about 10-15 feet away from the meter. Do I just size up to 3/4 gas line off the 1/2? Thx in advance
@DOLPEDIY
5 ай бұрын
That all depends on what tees off between the gas meter and where the unit will be. With this unit, you can use 1/2in but that's at the last run to the unit and it has certain requirements for that. A gas load calculation and diagram would have to be done first.

Depends on the size of the basement and if there are any other combustion units down there. A combustion test would be needed. But if it's possible, it's best to get the intake outside. It's better for the unit.

No, that's not normal. I would check your pressure. If it's above 80 during the high times, then you will need a PRV.
