Navien Premium NPE-180S2 Condensing Tankless Water Heater

Navien NPE-180S2 High-Efficiency Condensing Tankless Water Heater

The Navien NPE-180S2 is a high-efficiency condensing tankless water heater designed to provide dependable on-demand hot water for residential and commercial applications. With up to 150,000 BTU/h of heating input and flow rates of up to 8.4 GPM at a 35°F temperature rise, it offers efficient hot-water performance without requiring a conventional storage tank.

With a 0.96 Uniform Energy Factor, the NPE-180S2 uses advanced condensing technology to recover additional heat from combustion exhaust. This helps reduce wasted energy and fuel consumption compared with less-efficient water-heating systems. The unit is ENERGY STAR® certified and supports both natural gas and propane installations.

The NPE-180S2 heats water according to household demand, reducing the standby heat loss associated with conventional storage tanks. Its compact wall-mounted cabinet saves valuable floor space and supports indoor or outdoor installation when configured with the appropriate components.

Actual hot-water performance depends on incoming-water temperature, desired outlet temperature, water pressure and combined fixture demand. Professional sizing helps determine whether this model can meet the home’s expected hot-water requirements during colder Canadian conditions.
