    Lochinvar Noble NKB199N High-Efficiency Fire Tube Boiler

    The Lochinvar Noble NKB199N is a high-efficiency, wall-mounted condensing boiler designed to provide dependable heat for demanding residential hydronic systems. With a maximum input of 199,000 BTU and 95% AFUE efficiency, it delivers powerful heating performance while helping reduce natural gas consumption.

    Its stainless steel fire-tube heat exchanger provides efficient heat transfer, low pressure drop and long-term corrosion resistance. The compact wall-mounted configuration also helps preserve valuable floor space in mechanical rooms, basements and utility areas.

    199,000 Maximum BTU Input
    95% AFUE Efficiency
    10:1 Turndown Ratio
    Heating-only boiler: The NKB199N heats water for a hydronic space-heating system. It does not produce domestic hot water directly like the Lochinvar NKC199N combi boiler. The NKB199N may be incorporated into a properly designed system with a compatible indirect water heater when domestic hot-water production is needed.

    Key Features

    • 199,000 BTU maximum input for larger residential heating loads
    • 19,900 BTU minimum input for efficient low-load operation
    • 95% AFUE high-efficiency condensing performance
    • 10:1 modulation turndown ratio for improved comfort
    • Durable ASME stainless steel fire-tube heat exchanger
    • Low pressure-drop design provides greater piping flexibility
    • SMART CONTROL™ digital operating control
    • Outdoor-reset control capability
    • Built-in cascading control for systems with multiple boilers
    • Universal connector supports several approved vent materials
    • Compact wall-mounted configuration saves floor space
    • ENERGY STAR® certified residential boiler

    Ideal Applications

    Radiant Floor Heating Provides controlled hot-water temperatures for comfortable and efficient in-floor radiant heating systems.
    Multi-Zone Hydronic Systems Suitable for homes with several independently controlled heating zones and varying heating demands.
    Baseboard and Radiator Heating Can supply properly designed hydronic baseboard, panel radiator and traditional radiator systems.
    Hydro-Air Systems Can serve as the heat source for compatible air handlers equipped with hydronic heating coils.

    Designed for Radiant Floor Heating

    The Noble NKB199N is well suited for larger hydronic radiant-floor heating installations. Its modulating burner adjusts boiler output as heating demand changes, helping maintain more consistent system-water temperatures and reducing unnecessary cycling.

    When paired with properly sized manifolds, pumps, mixing controls and zoning components, the NKB199N can provide heat for multiple rooms, floors or heating zones from one central boiler.
