    I was just designing a system using Combi Boiler with a 90Litre unvented indirect cylinder so I can have a secondary return using a Combi boiler... best of both worlds constant hot water and instant hot water... doing research and not finding anyone who has done this but I don't see why not... I came across this video... this might be the better option!!

    You should watch ‘Mikey Pipes’ RUclips videos on Navien boilers.
    Cheaply made in Korea. Combustion burner seal usually leaks straight out of the box. Plastic sump turns to an oily gunk after only a couple of years.
    Popular in the USA though. Let the ‘mercan’s keep em!

    I've just recently had a Navien 'blue flame' oil combi installed. I'd never heard of the company before but they're huge in the states.
    I'm now curious if my one has this hot water feature but I'm sure the fitters would have told me.

    People acting like a secondary return on a combi is a new and innovative thing 🤣 been doing this for years, standard bronze pump and motion sensors in the bathrooms & kitchen, pipe stat on the return to knock it off once the return is warm. Looks like a good boiler though, OpenTherm and 15:1 modulation. Going to need a huge gas supply though!

    Interesting but a bit of a gimmick IMHO you still need a decent flow rate to run several showers at once much better off having flue recovery system, liking the Intergas boilers which have this with simpler design.

    @pip5461 2 года назад +2

    I'm not a plumber and easily confused... The "Navicirc valve" is external to the boiler and re-directs the heated water back towards the input to the boiler... As it's fed back to the boiler input, what gives it priority over the mains water coming in...? Plus, couldn't you just plumb the "Navicirc valve" or something similar into any combi setup...

  • @brendanfisher2528

    On the navien channel. It says just connect hot and cold to the recurculation valve. (Check it out) would this not cause legonaires issues? As it would be warming the cold drinking water

    • @joshtappin3269
      @joshtappin3269 Год назад +1

      What I mean by barrel pipe - is that some plastic pipe comes with a single layer but barrel pipe has two layers. Because secondary return pipes are continuously hot the non barrel pipe starts to disintegrate.

      Worcester give a longer warranty and more importantly, back it up unquestioningly with people on the ground.

      The secondary return accessory has been available for decades in the USA. Across all boilers, even Walmart sell them.
      Legionella concerns in the UK prevent the cold water supply being exploited for a hw return. Consequently Navien need a hw return separately run in the UK.
      Which leaves the secondary return pump controlled by the boiler the only new thing here.
      This is not quite the same as the secondary return on larger domestic/commercial because it is a combi with no significant water storage.

    @dazl7954 2 года назад +2

    2:19 side view, seal looks poor. offset pipe connections, not a good idea for installation (jig better option). Navicirc not ideal for many installations in the UK, where there are more than one circuit, its only ideal if installed like the demo image you put up, so its extra pipework to install, extra gas, extra time to install, initial more cost to the customer, possible faults in future, also seen many USA videos about the boiler make, and not that good really, various different faults. did you not want to tear it down?? (3 showers at once - what flow rate on each??, as most UK properties are an average of 17 L/min, that will not do 3 showers) i would not buy one. Tear down vid next?

  • @dsviking
    @dsviking Год назад

    The whole point of the NaviCirc is to be able to have recirculation without having a dedicated return. Instead, the NaviCirc will use the cold water feed to function as the return. This video sorta confuses and negates the whole point.
