New NPF Hydro-Furnaces

Hydro furnaces are an innovative and efficient heating solution that combines the reliability of a traditional furnace with the benefits of water-based heating. Using hot water as the heat source, a hydro furnace circulates warm air throughout your home, providing consistent and even temperatures. At B.R.’s Plumbing & Heating, we specialize in offering advanced heating systems like the Navien NPF, designed to meet the needs of modern homes in Tillsonburg, Ontario, and the surrounding areas. Whether you’re upgrading or need expert advice, we ensure your system operates at peak efficiency, keeping your home comfortable year-round.

Technology that delivers next-level comfort: NPF High Efficiency Hydro-Furnace

The Navien NPF High Efficiency Hydro Furnace offers a groundbreaking approach to home heating, designed to deliver next-level comfort with superior control and efficiency. Unlike conventional gas furnaces, which expose the air to extremely high temperatures that can dry out your indoor environment, the NPF uses a sealed combustion heat exchanger to heat water. This water is then circulated through a hydronic heat exchanger, transferring warmth into the air more gently. This method helps maintain balanced humidity levels while providing even, consistent heat throughout your home. The furnace operates with minimal sound and maximizes safety by keeping the combustion process completely isolated from the airstream.

At the heart of the NPF is its stainless steel combustion heat exchanger, offering an impressive efficiency rating of 97% AFUE and ultra-low NOx emissions, making it both eco-friendly and cost-effective. The system’s variable capacity operation allows it to adjust from 15% to 100% output, optimizing energy usage for every season. With its EZ-Nav user interface, homeowners can easily monitor and manage the system’s performance. Whether it’s fall, winter, or spring, the NPF automatically adjusts to changing outdoor conditions, ensuring that your home stays comfortable no matter the temperature. Plus, when paired with an air conditioning or heat pump system, it delivers quiet, efficient cooling during the summer months.

Should You Repair or Replace Your High-Efficiency Furnace?

When it comes to maintaining your home’s comfort and energy efficiency, deciding whether to repair or replace your high-efficiency furnace is crucial. If your furnace is over 10-15 years old and requires frequent repairs, upgrading to a new, energy-efficient model may be more cost-effective in the long run. Newer furnaces can significantly reduce your heating bills and lower your carbon footprint, ensuring reliable warmth with less energy consumption. Investing in a high-efficiency furnace also means enhanced comfort, better air quality, and long-term savings.

If you’re ready to upgrade to a high-efficiency hydro furnace, the Navien NPF is an excellent choice. Whether you’re dealing with rising energy bills, uneven heating, or frequent repairs with your existing furnace, the Navien NPF Hydro Furnace offers a reliable and cost-effective upgrade. Contact B.R.’s Plumbing & Heating today to schedule a consultation or to learn more about how this advanced system can improve your home’s comfort and energy efficiency.

I had a plumbing emergency and these professionals responded incredibly quickly.  They provided an immediate temporary fix to stop the problem, then took the time to assess the situation properly and give me a detailed estimate for the permanent repair. What impressed me most was their willingness to work directly with the city on my behalf to handle the necessary permits and approvals. Their efficiency, professionalism, and comprehensive approach to solving both the immediate crisis and long-term solution made a stressful situation much more manageable. I highly recommend them for any of your plumbing needs - they go above and beyond to take care of their customers. Thanks so much B.R.’s Plumbing & Heating Inc. ❤️

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My kitchen sink was totally blocked. I called early this morning, Brian answered. He's very friendly and extremely accommodating. He wiggled some scheduling around and Noah was here in about an hour. I found Noah very professional and didn't seem to mind me warching and my rapid fire questions! He was here for 45 minutes including adjusting the float in one of my toilets! Aside from Noah's van sliding down my driveway it was the best experience I could have asked for!

They were quick to return my call and were kind enough to walk me through a quick fix until they could come. They were polite and courteous. The charge was reasonable in comparison to other local plumbers I have used in the past.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had our furnace and two gas fire places serviced by Troy October 16th. Troy was accompanied by a young man that was a co-op student. We were so impressed by Troy, not only for the work he did, but his patience explaining and showing the student and also having him get involved in the inspections and what to look for. Good job Troy.
