I have a Navian boiler with an iFlow air system that provides air around the house via high velocity conduit. It's just over a 1 year old property and I just moved in and found the heating suboptimal.
I have had a plumber indicate the system is designed and installed incorrectly, which the builder disputes. I am filing for a warranty claim but curious if I could get some internet stranger bias or advice one way or another.
Issues:
Heating in most rooms is poor, room does not reach temperature set point on thermostat of 23c
Boiler/heating comes on and off frequently (every 20-30 mins)
No return airflow from upper level into boiler/hvac, possibly causing balancing/pressure issues
There's open ducting going from the mech room directly outside
Boiler intake not connecting to fresh air inlet
The plumber claims
the high velocity ductwork is incorrectly designed and needs to be re-done
there's leaking or missing ducts in crawlspace
gas line code violations
incomplete iFlow setup
no recirculation
pipes un-attached (pressure relief valve?)
incorrect material used (90' ptex connectors?)
Can anyone provide their opinion based on the photos and confirm the plumbers concerns?
Thanks
