16        Installing the Boiler

2.2    Mounting the Boiler to the Wall

Navien NCB boilers come with an upper mounting bracket that 

is pre-drilled at 16 in (400 mm) on center for easy installation on 

standard wall studs. If the strength of the wall is insufficient or if 

the framing is non-standard or uneven, reinforce the area before 

installing the boiler. Avoid installation on common walls as the unit 

will make some operational noises while it is running.

To mount the boiler to the wall:

1.  Affix the bracket securely to the wall and ensure that it is level 

and that it can support the weight of the boiler.

2.  Align the grooves on the back of the boiler with the tongues 

on the mounting bracket and hang the boiler on the bracket.
When mounted with the mounting bracket, the boiler will 

have a 

5

/

8

 in (16 mm) clearance from the back of the wall.

WARNING

 

The boiler is heavy.

 Always lift the unit with assistance. Be 

careful not to drop the boiler while lifting or handling it to 

avoid bodily injury or damage to the unit.

 

Do not

 rest the boiler on the bottom end after removing it 

from the shipping carton. Doing so may result in excessive 

pressure on protruding pipes and resulting in product 

damage. If you must put the boiler down, lay it on its back or 

put it inside the protective shipping base.

CAUTION

Do not mount the boiler to dry wall that has not been 

reinforced.
