Utilizes Existing 1/2" Gas Line
• Negative Pressure Gas Valve with dual venturi operation allows better adaptability in low gas pressure applications.
• NHB boilers can be installed on 1/2" gas lines for up to 24'
 Cascade multiple units in parallel for larger applications. Everything is included in the box.
NHB-55 boilers that ship from GadgetsGo are the latest version, which have Navien's Ready-Link cascading system.
