A condensate drain pipe must be connected to the ¾” condensate outlet tting at the
bottom of the unit and water must be poured into the exhaust connection to ll the
condensate trap.

in, maximum 50 psi pressure relief valve on the space heating supply.
An ASME approved HV pressure relief valve for space heating system is supplied with the boiler.
You may install the pressure relief valve on the space heating supply of the Navien Manifold System, or on the top connection along
with the air vent (and an external LWCO, if required).
CAUTION
Do not solder piping directly onto the water connections, as the heat may cause damage to internal components. Use
threaded water connections only.

The Navien NFB boiler comes with an air vent and an
adapter bushing that must be connected to the air vent
connection. The vent eciently removes the air from
the space heating system.
To secure the adapter to the tting, install the provided
clip after inserting the PRV-air vent adapter into the
connection on top of the unit.
When installing the air vent, install the air vent bushing
between the air vent and the top connection.
Before lling the boiler, remove the air vent cap to allow
the system to ll properly. Replace the cap when the
system is full.
Note
Prior to connecting piping to the boiler, ush
the entire system to ensure it is free of
sediment, ux, scale, debris or other
impurities that may be harmful to the system
and boiler. During the assembly of the
heating system, it is important to keep the
inside of the piping free of any debris
including construction dust, copper burr,
sand and dirt.
Note
Ensure that the vent cap is re-installed and
the vent screws on the system and boiler
pumps are properly tightened before testing
or operating the system.
