QQ - Navien NaviCirc & Navien NPE-240A2

[troye]

Hello,
New member here. I have done quite a bit of reading on the forum and other places but my little brain is still unclear.

I do not have the recirc line connected, for the A2 is it required when using the NaviCirc?

Currently I have it set it the Navien to Internal, and the hot water still takes just as long to get to the faucet.

Thank you!
Troy

Thanks for the reply! I did more than a few hours research before posting.

Yes I have the manual. Others have stated the A2 vs the A is different how it handles recirc but the manual may not be updated.

I have since set it to external circulation NOT using the Recirc line. It definitely works better now. I put the Navicirc furthest away and at that faucet water comes hot quick. But downstairs bathroom pretty close to the tankless it is still taking some time.

I wonder if I did use the recirc line if that would help the hot water at downstairs bathroom and kitchen
OR
I know I should not have to but - I could install another Navicirc downstairs

Thank you
