Navien NPE-210S2
The Navien NPE-210S2 is a condensing tankless water heater — a DHW-only appliance, not a boiler — firing 12,000 to 180,000 BTU/h at 0.96 UEF with up to 10.1 GPM at a 35°F rise.

Navien NPE-210S2 in practice
The NPE-210S2 is a condensing tankless water heater in Navien's NPE-S2 line. the NPE-2 Specification Sheet prints an input range of 12,000 to 180,000 BTU/h and a Uniform Energy Factor of 0.96; the official product page publishes up to 10.1 GPM at a 35°F (19.4°C) temperature rise. It heats domestic hot water on demand and has no hydronic heating circuit.
The unit weighs 73 lb in a 17.3 W × 27.4 H × 13.2 D in cabinet, connects on 3/4" NPT water and gas lines, and is installed indoor or outdoor wall-hung. Field recirculation options per the NPE-2 installation manual. As a condensing appliance it produces acidic condensate that must be managed per the installation manual.
The NPE-2 line is sold on navieninc.ca with Canadian product pages and manuals, so Canadian availability is recorded as available. For homes that need space heating as well as hot water, Navien's combi boilers (NCB-H, NFC-H) are the boiler products; a tankless water heater such as the NPE-210S2 covers domestic hot water only and is sized on peak hot-water demand, not on a building heat-loss calculation.
Best suited to
- Domestic hot water at up to 180,000 BTU/h input
- 0.96 UEF condensing operation with 10.1 GPM maximum flow at a 35°F rise
- Installations calling for a DHW-only appliance (indoor or outdoor wall-hung)
