Instructions for use of the boiler navien. Description of boilers Navien - reviews, instructions and specifications

Navien is a large South Korean corporation that produces universal, high-quality and reliable gas boilers. Navien devices are notable for their reliability, practicality and functionality. These devices have open or closed chamber   combustion, their functional part is durable. However, their cost is lower when compared with European counterparts.

Navien is a universal water heating system

Gas boilers Navien Ace are not afraid of low pressure of gas and water, they are not afraid of voltage drops in the network. The work of gas boilers Navien is characterized by a long period of operation and economical gas consumption. All Navien gas devices comply with the standards and regulations of the Russian Federation and have the appropriate certificates.

Stability of frost protection system

If the room temperature falls, then automatic protection system works   from freezing. When lowering the temperature of the water heating more than 10 degrees Celsius, automatic start circulation pump, resulting in a constant circulation of the coolant in the heating system. If the temperature of the heating water drops to 6 degrees Celsius, the burner automatically switches on and the coolant warms up to 21 degrees Celsius.

Safety of work with frequent voltage drops in the network

According to the instructions, the voltage can fluctuate within ± 30 percent, due to the operation of a Switched - Mode Power Supply (SMPS) protective chip on the microprocessor. Wherein boiler operation does not stopthat prolongs its service life and prevents breakage.

Operating conditions of heating and hot water:

  • under the condition of low inlet pressure in the gas pipeline system - stable and safe functioning gas boiler   Navien Ace is possible with a gas pressure of four mbar (40 millimeters of water);
  • under the condition of low incoming water pressure in the water supply system - stable operation of the gas boiler Navien Ace is possible provided that the incoming water pressure drops to a value of 0.3 bar, which allows you to apply it gas device   in houseswhere there is low water pressure in the water supply system, including where frequent pressure drops in the water supply system.

Rational construction

Gas boilers Navien differ in small size and low weight, it is convenient to transport them, they are easy to install and there is the possibility of rational use of floor space. For ease of installation, the connecting tubes are located on both sides of the device, which greatly simplifies the tying and installation of the gas boiler Navien Ace.

Fuel Preheating (KR Series)

At low temperatures, the viscosity of the fuel increases, resulting in a waxing effect, which significantly impairs the flammability of diesel fuel   and the operation of the gas boiler Navien becomes unstable. This feature of the work is relevant for regions with a harsh climate, so for these conditions, Arctic and winter diesel fuel has been created.

Gas devices Navien work on any diesel fuel produced in RussiaHowever, the cost of winter or arctic diesel fuel is much higher than the summer one, and the use of summer fuel is impossible at low temperatures without first heating it.

The heating element, which is built into the burner of the Navien gas unit, preheats it before applying fuel to the nozzle, resulting in high-quality fuel atomization and uninterrupted flammability. Due to preheating in gas boilers Navien Ace have the possibility of using low-cost summer diesel fuel, which leads to significant savings.

Design

1. Heat exchanger made of stainless steel

Stainless steel is used for the production of the heat exchanger, thanks to which it does not corrode, which significantly extends the life of the boiler Navien Ace.

2. Modern diesel burner

Due to the modern efficient diesel burner, low-noise stable operation with minimal fuel consumption is ensured. According to the instructions the burner can work with any diesel fuel, taking into account all types of fuel produced in the Russian Federation.

3. Fuel filter with replaceable cartridges

The fuel supply system is equipped with a filter to clean unwanted impurities, as a result of which the stable operation of the gas boiler Navien Ace is disrupted. Additional replaceable cartridges are included in the kit with the Navien device.

4. Russified control panel

By means of the remote completely Russified control panel equipped with the liquid crystal digital display, it is created the possibility of economical fuel consumption and reduce heating costsand also constant maintenance of a comfortable temperature in the room thanks to the room temperature sensor built into the control panel.

Copper gas wall NAVIEN

When the consumer is faced with the question of choosing a gas boiler for heating, one has to take into account a large number of criteria ensuring its efficient and economical operation. In this regard, the domestic and foreign units should be separated. Unfortunately, not all “foreigners” can withstand the difficult Russian conditions of operation - low quality of the coolant, pressure drops of gas and water, periodic power outages. True, many foreign analogues today are already adapted to Russian conditions. For example, the famous South Korean model line "Navien Ace" with the instruction, where it is stipulated that these boilers can be used in Russia.

The brand Navien Ace is a wall version. double boiler. This model refers to the equipment "Navien" with an open combustion chamber and the natural conclusion of the products of combustion. What is included in the design of the boiler?

Boiler grade

The unit includes:

  • Two heat exchangers made of stainless steel, which guarantees their long and reliable operation.
  • Remote display of the control unit, which is fully Russified. For the Russian consumer is a very important condition.
  • Built-in circulation pump.
  • Expansion tank.
  • Safety valve.
  • Automatic air vent.
  • The bypass valve, which is also configured in automatic mode.
  • Thrust sensor.
  • Electric Current Stabilizer.
  • Remote control, which is convenient in terms of service.

South Korean boiler navien ace is fully equipped with Japanese automation. In this case, the manufacturer gives a warranty period of 2 years. This is a fairly compact device with excellent technical characteristics. Instructions for use of boilers Navien makes it easy to understand all the intricacies of the instrument settings, modes and temperature ranges.

Classification

Gas boilers "Navien Ace" are divided into two categories:

  1. Ace ATMO.
  2. Ace turbo

The first unit is a simple and traditional boiler with an open combustion chamber, where atmospheric discharge of combustion products is used. The second is a more refined and turbocharged one. This allows you to effectively supply gas and burn it with an unstable flow, which is associated with pressure surges.   In addition, the second option is equipped with a special SMPS control system, which is based on highly sensitive chips. They are responsible for monitoring and regulating gas combustion processes. In all other respects, both options are no different from each other.

Both models can be classified as universal technology. Adapted to challenging operating conditions, they are among the most economical. heating applianceswhich are present in the Russian market today. An important component of the design is the remote control panel. It is very convenient when you can set modes and indicators at a distance, quickly setting up.

But what is surprising - can work not only in automatic mode, but also in manual mode. This is especially convenient when the temperature outside the window changes dramatically. Manual installation allows you to more accurately set the parameters and indicators, which eliminates the smallest errors in the operation of heating equipment.

Gas boilers navien ace can be called universal units. They work on natural gas or liquefied bottled gas. To switch from one type of gas to another, you need to change only the burner. No other changes are required.

What to look for when installing?


Steel gas boiler Navien Ace

As the instruction is attached to the equipment, there are no problems with the installation and connection of the device. Doing it yourself is not a problem. The instructions can even figure out a layman. Especially since it is written in Russian.

The only thing that experts are asking to pay attention to is a way to remove carbon monoxide. They can be removed through a conventional atmospheric chimney, connected to the smoke system of the house or installed as a separate structure. But if you are not satisfied with any option, you can make a coaxial chimney. Its installation is several times easier. But note that coaxial structures are used only in the case when the heated area of ​​the house does not exceed 110 m². They can be installed with boilers whose power does not exceed 11 kW.

Conclusion on the topic

Gas boilers "Navien Ace" is a high-quality heating equipment with excellent technical and operational characteristics. Adapted to the difficult Russian conditions of operation, they firmly occupied one of the leading positions in the market of heating equipment in Russia. Their popularity does not fall, which means it is likely that other models will always be in demand.

Wall and floor boilers   firms Navien have a number of features that distinguish them from competitors.

  1. System for work at differences in the power supply network. The models of gas-fired Navien boilers are distinguished by the presence of a technical filling, which allows the equipment to operate even with differences in the electrical network, reaching 30 percent. This is a guarantee that your wall boilers   will not require repair if there are problems with electricity in the house. And such situations are not uncommon for us.
  2. Ability to work with low pressure plumbing system. Problems with pressure in the water supply system occur less frequently, but even when they occur, the boiler will function normally, provide heat and hot water   all House.
  3. Not one heat exchanger, but two. All wall models of boilers Navien have not one heat exchanger, but a pair. Each heat exchanger is made of stainless steel, which is distinguished by reliability, efficiency and resistance to corrosion. This design with a pair of heat exchangers increases the resistance of the boiler to water pollution, scale, provides affordable repair. The price of the Navien boilers themselves is quite attractive - from 30 thousand rubles. There are also more expensive, productive models capable of providing warmly impressive premises.
  4. Turbocharging. Each floor and wall boiler of the South Korean company Navien is equipped with a turbocharger - an air supply system. This increases the efficiency of the boiler device. The air supply pressure is controlled automatically. As a result, with less fuel is provided better heating   houses.

Benefits

We have talked with the design features of the Navien boilers. These are four objective reasons to pay close attention to such models as the boiler Navien Ace and Deluxe, Prime.

If you put the Navien boilers on a par with competitors represented on the domestic market in about the same price category, the South Korean manufacturer will demonstrate a number of obvious advantages:

  • High level of quality and reliability of automation. Errors for such boilers are rare and can only be caused by system failures or improper control by the user. But if errors occur on models Deluxe, Prime or Ace, eliminate them quite simply. Most of the work takes on automation. Errors are easily read, causes of their occurrence are determined according to the manufacturer’s instructions;
  • Availability of SMPT protection chips. With their help, the boiler gas equipment   works fine under conditions of unstable electrical network. You all know how often problems arise with the electricity grid in our homes. Many boilers are not able to cope with such fluctuations, constantly give errors and fail. With Navien boilers, such situations are minimized;
  • Adaptation of Navien boilers to the operating conditions in domestic realities. We are talking about unstable pressure in the pipeline and problems with the pressure of water in the pipeline. The Navien boiler models Prime, Deluxe or Ace perfectly cope with such conditions, when the gas pressure drops to 4 mbar, and water to 0.1 mbar;
  • This Korean assembly. Unlike many products that have European or other designations on the hulls, Navien boilers do assemble in Korea, and not somewhere in China, in order to reduce the cost of assembly. It is no secret that many foreign companies are setting up production in China. And they give equipment for European, for example;
  • Remote controls remote control. Navien boilers are equipped with special convenient remote controls with which the user can change the operating modes of his boiler equipment at a distance.

Range

The range of the South Korean company Navien is constantly expanding, which allows buyers to purchase for themselves the best-suited gas boilers in all respects.

Therefore, to tell about all the representatives of the model range is impossible. Instead, we consider the equipment Navien, which can be divided into three broad categories.

  1. Wall models. Wall-mounted boilers have a double heat exchanger, marked as Ace, Deluxe. Deluxe are double-circuit models that have a wide power range up to 13 to 40 kW. All Deluxe series boilers are turbocharged. Deluxe turbocharged equipment can have a coaxial or split chimney. In addition to Deluxe, the Ace series of wall models is in great demand. Ace series is divided into Turbo and Atmo. The difference between them lies in the fact that Turbo is fully adapted for operation in conditions of unstable supply of gas and electricity to the boiler. An additional advantage of the Ace Turbo is the anti-freeze and turbocharger burner. If we talk about the atmosphere, then this is a classic gas boiler, which perfectly provides heating for a private house. Atmo present all the strengths of the Turbo, except for the turbocharger burner.
  2. Floor boilers from Navien. If you are not satisfied with wall models for one reason or another, floor models deserve excellent reviews. They are used for heating and hot water for private homes. The distinctive features of the floor-mounted models of Navien boilers are their compact dimensions, ease of operation and convenient installation. Each boiler is accompanied by detailed instructions, according to which even a novice in such cases can install. It is somewhat easier to install wall models, although there are no problems with them. The double heat exchanger significantly increases the heat generation efficiency in the gas boiler.
  3. Condensation Deluxe, Ace and other models of the company Navien have recently received a serious competitor in the face of South Korean condensing boilers. They are labeled NCN. Their distinctive feature is the increased power, the range of which is 19.6-37.9 kW. These boilers effectively use fuel, spending a smaller amount of it, but providing more high-quality heating. The efficiency of the boilers Navien condensation type reaches 108 percent. This was made possible through the use of heat, which is released during condensation of steam. So consumers save money on paying for gas, but more effectively heat their own home. The heat exchanger here is somewhat different. Its design is unique, characterized by the presence of a system for creating a combustible mixture. Burners necessarily modulation, the range of which is amazing.

Choosing boilers from the company Navien from the series of Deluxe, Ace or other range, you buy quality and reliability. This is one of the few cases when a manufacturer no longer requires only for a brand. The high level of boilers Navien no doubt.

Repair of household equipment is expensive. But it is not always necessary to call the master, in many cases, you can do it yourself. Consider the repair manual Navien.

Navien - Korean-made heating equipment, popular in Russia due to its good price-quality ratio.

Here are the main design advantages of gas units:

  • the control unit is equipped with a microprocessor chip with protection function of the automation against voltage surges;
  • automatic maintenance of the operating mode, a lot of settings;
  • long service life;
  • can work on the natural and liquefied gas;
  • coolant pressure may drop to 0.1 bar without equipment failure;
  • the system does not freeze in case of gas interruptions. Normally, when the temperature drops to +5, the burner automatically turns on. At impossibility of ignition the pump functions forced circulation, it does not allow the coolant to freeze;
  • easy intuitive adjustment of modes.

12E - fire in the combustion chamber went out.

13E - short circuit in the flow meter.

14E - gas supply is stopped.

15E - problems with the control board.

16E - overheating.

17E - DIP switch malfunction.

18E - overheating of the smoke removal device.

27E - Air pressure sensor problems.

If the boiler is noisy during operation, and the error is not displayed on the display, the reason may be in the scale that impedes the flow of coolant. The boiler roars when overheating, boiling water, or with poor quality coolant.

Frequent malfunction of the double wall gas boiler Navien - failure of the three-way crane (). This occurs, in particular, when the service life of the crane is over (usually 4 years). In this case, may be lost hot water   in the DHW circuit.

Troubleshooting

Let's consider how to eliminate the main malfunctions of the gas boiler. With error 01, you need to carefully inspect the pump, check the condition of the impeller, the electrical unit, clean the dirt filter, and also blow off air from the system.

To eliminate the error 02 boiler Navien perform the following actions:

  • bleed air from the system;
  • measure pressure;
  • check the resistance on the pump coil, make sure that there is no short circuit;
  • check the position of the control valve, open if closed;
  • clean the sensor checkbox.

Error 03 boiler Navien often flashes if the flame sensor is clogged. It should be cleaned. The gray coating on the electrode is peeled off with fine-grained sandpaper. If error 5 appears, you need to check the status of the circuit between the sensor and the controller, in case of serious problems replace the sensor.

  In case of error 10, the boiler Navien needs:

  • check the serviceability of the fan, if it is impossible to replace it;
  • check the contacts in the tubes of the measuring device;
  • clean the chimney.

When the error appears 13 replace the sensor. Noise in the system may disappear after flushing the heat exchanger, sometimes it needs to be replaced. Faucets should be opened fully, the temperature of the coolant is recommended to be lowered.

Another important point in the maintenance of the gas boiler Navien: how to fill the system after draining again. Such a need may arise after repair / replacement of parts of the system or if the coolant was drained while the house was empty.

Before starting the refueling, you must de-energize the devices, shut off the gas. Check the position of the valves, shut-off and distribution, open them to the maximum. Turn the make-up valve (usually at the bottom of the unit) to the left. Close when the pressure gauge shows 1.2-2 bar. If, as a result of the filling, the emergency indicator is triggered, the water is drained and re-performed.

Conclusion

Do-it-yourself repair of the mounted navien boiler in many cases is possible and permissible. In order to maximize the life of the unit, the installation and operation of the heating system must strictly follow the manufacturer's instructions.

For preventive purposes, it is desirable to supplement the system with several devices: a gas and water filter, a water converter (magnetic, polyphosphate). To protect sensitive electronics it is recommended to connect the boiler through a voltage regulator ().

If we consider the turnover of heaters in the domestic market, we can see that consumers prefer European technology. However, the Korean Navien mounted boiler, whose price is lower than its Western counterparts, occupies the top positions among other heating devices. This is due to the durability of products and the availability of warranty service. Also read: "The gas boiler from Beretta is simple, reliable and functional"

What are the wall boilers Navien

Made in Korea.

The company from Asia has loudly declared itself and its products, because the choice of European brands has decreased. Products of the Korean company can compete with gas units of any European manufacturer. Because of the gas boiler Navien user reviews are only positive.

One of the most popular and reliable is considered to be a double-circuit hinged boiler of Ace line. Such devices may have an open or closed combustion chamber. The functional component of the device is durable, as noted by users and specialists. At the same time, the price of the mounted Navien boiler is much lower than the equipment offered by European brands.

The line is represented by several devices:

  • Navien Ace ATMO;
  • Navien Ace-20k;
  • Navien Ace TURBO.

The latest model should be considered first. This boiler is presented in two variations - Korea and Coaxial. The wall equipment for the heating system has a rated power of 13-40 kW. However, this figure does not depend on the modification. Gas boiler Navien, according to reviews, is ideal for use in the climatic conditions of our country.

The equipment is characterized by the ability to work in difficult operating conditions: pressure surges in the pipeline, with voltage drops in the power supply network. Even if it has not been turned on for a long time, such a boiler will start without problems and perform its functions at 100%.

Features Navien Ace TURBO

Compact placement of the boiler elements.

Wall mounted double boiler is characterized as follows:

  • application for heating water and heating residential buildings;
  • the equipment includes a steel heat exchanger coated with anticorrosive material, which significantly reduces the cost of equipment in comparison with boilers equipped with copper heat exchangers;
  • gas boiler Navien Ace (instruction manual attached to each model) is easy to use;

Wall equipment has brains. This means that the unit ensures that the coolant does not freeze in the pipelines of the heating system. Automation works in two cases. The first is when the water temperature drops to 10 degrees. This time is included. The second situation occurs when the coolant temperature is less than 6 ° C. In this case, it turns on gas-burnerheating fluid up to 21 degrees.

The double-circuit boiler Navien Ace TURBO and the model 16k will operate with a decrease in the voltage in the power supply network to 30%. The Navien Ace 16k manual also states that the boiler will not turn off when the water pressure in the system is 0.1 bar.

Products Navien reviews are positive. This is due to the long period of use, high efficiency of the unit. The equipment has high fuel and electricity savings. This is facilitated by the presence of a turbocharger and an APS sensor that monitors air pressure.

Characteristics of Navien Ace ATMO and Navien Ace 20k

The boiler is set to uninterrupted voltage.

Among the company's products are double boilers   turbocharged and without it. The latter belong to the Ace ATMO line. They have the same features as turbocharging equipment. Korean gas boilers Navien Ace reviews are by and large positive, which once again testifies to the quality of products.

This unit is equipped with the same chip, which ensures uninterrupted operation during power surges in the power supply network, as the above models. A distinctive feature of the device is the absence of turbocharging, which ensures quiet operation.

Navien Ace 20k, like other Korean brand aggregates, is fully adapted to the climatic conditions of Russia. The device works flawlessly with low gas and water pressure, which allows them to be used in multi-storey residential buildings. This expands their scope. The organization of the removal of combustion products can be carried out in different ways:

  • by installing a horizontal (conventional) chimney;
  • with separate smoke removal system;
  • by mounting in a vertical position.

It is important to note that some variations of the equipment from Navien support remote control using a phone or tablet.
