Replacing a Bosch Aquastar 125FX with a Bosch Therm 830ES

The older Bosch Aquastar model 125FX came in either Natural Gas (NG) or Liquid Propane (LP) and was 117,000 BTU and was a direct vent unit that was good for one major application at a time.  The 125FX had electronic ignition and was fan-assisted and took its combustion air from the room it was installed in.  The heater had a built-in fan so the heater could be vented right out the sidewall of the building.  The Aquastar 125FX had to be vented with 4" sealed stainless steel venting going a maximum of 15' out the sidewall of the building into the FXHood.  The FX Hood was a termination hood specifically designed for the 125FX and had a built-in flapper to keep cold air from penetrating the vent pipe and freezing the heater.  The Bosch Aquastar 125FX is discontinued now and has not been made for over 8 years or so.  One of the closest replacement models for the 125FX would be the new Bosch Therm 830ES.
Bosch Therm 830ES
The new Bosch 830ES comes in either Natural Gas (NG) or Liquid Propane (LP) and is 175,000 BTU which is slightly more BTUs than the older 125FX.  The Bosch 830ES needs a minimum of a 3/4" gas line and has 3/4" water connections also.  The 830ES is a sealed unit and takes its intake air from the outside using 3" PVC.  The unit is vented to the outside using 3" Stainless steel venting and this could be attached to the FX Hood that is already in place using a 3" to 4" increaser (Z-Flex Part #2SVSI0304).  The 830ES is digitally controlled and can go from 100 - 140 degrees F.  See below for more specifications and capacity.

Outdoor Installation of Bosch 330PN, 520PN & 520HN

In past years, Bosch had always had naturally drafting gas tankless water heaters that were specifically designed for the outdoors.  The 117,000 BTU Bosch 125BO and 425HNO outdoor units were designed for outdoor use; however, they were discontinued about three years ago.  The Bosch 125BO and the 425HNO did not require any power to operate and were naturally drafting. They also did not require any venting. (These heaters did come with a power cord, but the power cord was only to provide for freeze protection and was not required for the regular operation of the water heater.)

The only outdoor Bosch tankless water heaters that are currently available are direct vent units and they require power to operate and have a special outdoor vent cap (BTOK) to protect them from the elements.  These specific outdoor units also have built-in freeze protection that is good for ambient freezes for short periods of time.

Bosch does still offer three different naturally drafting gas tankless water heaters that do not require any power to operate and are intended for indoor use but can be installed outside under special situations. The Bosch 330PN, Bosch 520PN and the Bosch 520HN are all naturally drafting units that require no power to operate.  These units come in either Natural Gas (NG) or Liquid Propane (LP). 

These units can be mounted outside if they are well protected from the elements and are able to get plenty of combustion air when in operation (See Image below of Bosch 330PN LP installed outdoors on a tree).  The 75,000 BTU Bosch Therm 330PN and the 117,000 BTU Bosch Therm 520PN and 520HN tankless water heaters will not be covered under any manufacturer's warranty if the unit freezes or if the heater gets damaged by rain.  Bosch Thermotechnology may void any warranty for the heater at their discretion as the Bosch 330PN, 520PN and the 520HN are intended for indoor applications.



This photo shows the Bosch 330PN-LP installed in a protected case with a sloped roof. The case is open on the bottom to allow for the easy flow of make-up air.


This photo shows the 330PN-LP from the front view with a hinge on the custom-built case that allows for easy access to the tankless water heater's controls.

Venting a Bosch Therm 330PN into an Existing Chimney


The Bosch Therm 330PN is a naturally drafting gas tankless water heater and must be vented to the outside using a minimum of a 4" diameter galvanized type B gas vent.  Under no circumstances should the vent pipe be reduced in size.  There must be a minimum of a 12" rise off the top of the heater before any 45's or 90 degree elbows.  If there is to be a horizontal section before going into the chimney then try and keep it as short as possible.  The maximum horizontal run allowed is half of the total vertical vent height.  45's, 90 degree elbows and any horizontal length is not to be considered in the total gas vent height.

The Chimney the Bosch 330 PN tankless water heater is venting into must be the only thing going into the chimney.  The galvanized type B gas vent must run all the way up the chimney to an approved rain cap.  The minimum vertical vent height is 6 ft and any horizontal vent connectors or elbows are not to be considered in the total gas vent height.  All gas vent sections of pipe must be screwed together with sheet metal screws and properly supported.  The Bosch 330 PN may be vented into the chimney alone as long as it is lined with the correct tile or metal ling.  Consult local codes for proper lining of chimney.  You may not vent any other fuel burning appliances into any free space remaining in the chimney.  Please see the illustration below for venting into the chimney and always follow the instructions listed in the installation manual for the heater.

A = Minimum of 6 ft. rise
1.  Listed approved Rain Cap
2.  Horizontal vent connection rising 1/4" per ft.
3.  Establish a 12" rise before any elbows

Venting a Bosch Therm 520PN or 520HN into an Existing Chimney


The Bosch Therm 520PN and Bosch Therm 520HN are both naturally drafting gas tankless water heaters and must be vented to the outside using a minimum of a 5" diameter galvanized type B gas vent.  6" diameter type B gas vent is required for all installations over 2,000 ft above sea level.  Under no circumstances should the vent pipe be reduced in size.  There must be a minimum of a 12" rise off the top of the heater before any 45's or 90 degree elbows.  If there is to be a horizontal section before going into the chimney then try and keep it as short as possible.  The maximum horizontal run allowed is half of the total vertical vent height.  45's, 90 degree elbows and any horizontal length is not to be considered in the total gas vent height.

The Chimney the Bosch tankless water heater is venting into must be the only thing going into the chimney.  The galvanized type B gas vent must run all the way up the chimney to an approved rain cap.  The minimum vertical vent height is 6 ft and any horizontal vent connectors or elbows are not to be considered in the total gas vent height.  All gas vent sections of pipe must be screwed together with sheet metal screws and properly supported.  The masonry chimney may have to be tile or metal lined before the insertion of the gas vent pipe.  Consult local codes for proper lining of chimney.  You may not vent any other fuel burning appliances into any free space remaining in the chimney.  Please see the illustration below for venting into the chimney and always follow the instructions listed in the installation manual for the heater.

Bosch Gas & Electric Residential Tankless Water Heaters 2015 NAECA Standards


The U.S. Department of Energy has increased the energy factor requirements for residential water heaters effective April 16th, 2015 through the National Appliance Energy Conservation Act (NAECA).

This update of regulations will affect all manufacturers selling residential water heaters in the U.S. Residential water heaters include storage type units that store heated water in an insulated tank and instantaneous type units that heat water on demand.

These standards only apply to gas fired storage (<=75 kBTU/h input), oil-fired storage (<=105 kBTU/h input), tabletop storage (<=12kW input), all electric (<=12kW input), and instantaneous gas (<200 h="" input="" kbtu="" p="">

Impact of NAECA standards:
Increased Energy Factor ratings on almost all residential water heater technologies and sizes will impact manufacturers, wholesalers, contractors, and end users.

Impact on Products:
Gas tankless water heaters:  Increased Energy Factor requirements will only allow models with EF 0.82 and over to be manufactured as of April 16th. Models operating at or over EF 0.82 will not be affected. Most of Bosch’s tankless water heaters fall in this category of EF over 0.82.

Impact on Wholesalers and Contractors:
These NAECA regulations will affect wholesalers and contractors and it is important to note these forthcoming changes. Tankless products may be a more suitable alternative in certain applications. Tank-type gas water heaters >55 gal. may require line voltage and condensate disposal. In addition, HPWH technology will be required in electric tank-type >55 gal.

Descaling My Bosch C1050ES Tankless Water Heater

A few weeks ago I descaled my Bosch Greentherm C1050ES-LP Condensing Tankless Water Heater and it was far easier than I had imagined it would be. The total elapsed time to do the complete job was less than an hour. I took a few pictures as I went through the steps.


The above picture shows the JC Whitlam Flow-Aide Descaler Kit. This kit contains the (2) 5' hoses, the submersible pump, the pump intake filter and one quart of Flow-Aide descaling solution.



The above picture shows my Bosch Therm C1050ES-LP condensing tankless water heater and my Webstone 44443WPR Lead-Free Isolation Valves. I took this photo after I had closed the two yellow-handled main water valves and after I had opened the two service ports. I had to place a bucket beneath the two valves to catch the water that was in the internal piping of the tankless water heater.


The above picture shows the two 5' hoses that come with the Descaling Kit attached to the two service ports on my Webstone Isolation Valves.


The above picture shows the Flow-Aide bucket and descaling solution. I had already put one gallon of cold water in the bucket and mixed in the one quart container of Flow-Aide solution. This descaling solution is non-toxic and bio-degradable.


The above picture shows the submersible pump output attached to the cold water connection on my tankless water heater. The pump is not plugged in yet.



The above picture shows the included intake filter attached to the submersible pump input. This filter prevents any debris from being run through the tankless water heater. The pump is still not plugged in.



The above picture shows the descaling process in action. Here you can see the hose from the hot water connection to my water heater just hanging into the bucket. You can also see that I have plugged the submersible pump into a GFCI protected 110 V power outlet.

I let the descaling process run for about 30 minutes. I then emptied out the bucket and rinsed it out thoroughly. I then put about a gallon of cold water into the bucket and I ran that cold water through my tankless water heater for about 5 minutes just to clean it all out.

Lastly, I disconnected everything and then I closed the two service ports on my Isolation Valves. I then opened up the two yellow handles to let the water flow back into my water heater. When I turned on a hot water demand everything worked perfectly!

Vertically constructed vent stack along the outside of the home


It is not permissible to vent a naturally drafting gas tankless water heater such as the Bosch 520HN, 520PN, 1600H, 1600P, 330PN or the 1000P out and up the side wall of the home.  This is not safe as the exposed venting running up the side of the home will be exposed to the elements and cold.  When the temperature outside gets cold and makes the vent stack cold then the exhaust gases from the Bosch tankless water heater will not properly draft to the outside and can fill the home with carbon monoxide.

The installation manual states: "Horizontally venting to a vertically constructed vent stack along an outside wall of a building is not permissible".  This is also against the National Fuel Gas Code (NFGC).  If a Bosch tankless water heater needs to be vented Horizontally out the sidewall of the building then you would be required to use the Bosch AQ4 Powervent Kit.  The AQ4 power vent kit is designed to activate when the tankless water heater comes on and blow the exhaust gases outside.  The Bosch AQ4 power vent kit can be used with the Bosch 520HN, 520PN, 1600H and the 1600P.  The Bosch 330PN and 1000P cannot be power-vented and must be vented vertically up through the roof of the building.



This rule for venting up the outside of the building also applies to the older Bosch Aquastar 125 series heaters and the ELM VP heaters.  For older gas tankless water heaters that were installed and vented up the outside of  the building they would want to have a chase built around them and box the venting in.  Please always be aware of the minimum venting clearances for all venting material.  Please see the before and after pictures below of a vent stack running up the outside of the home.

Bosch Therm 520HN, 520PN & 330PN being Phased Out


Bosch Thermotechnology has recently announced that the Bosch Therm 520HN, Bosch Therm 520PN and the Bosch Therm 330PN will be phased out as of April 2015.  Bosch Thermotechnology will not be manufacturing anymore of these units after April 2015.  Globaltowne will still be selling the Bosch Therm 520HN, 520PN and 330PN for as long as we have the stock.  These units are being phased out due to a requirement for all gas appliances from the Dept of Energy that states they have to have a minimum of an 82% thermal efficiency and the 520's & 330 PN are only 81%.
Impact on the Homeowner

The homeowner will have to deal with increased product and installation costs. In some cases, the water heater will have to be re-located to operate properly, or mitigate noise. While the operating cost of the new water heaters will be less because of their increased energy efficiency, it is likely that the maintenance costs will increase because of a more complex design, and the integration of electronics, blowers, fans, condensers, etc.  In some cases, the performance of the new water heater in terms of hot water deliverability will be less than the model which was replaced.

The Bosch Therm 520HN and the Bosch Therm 520PN are direct replacements for the older Aquastar model heaters such as the 170VP, 125VP, 125B, 125X, 125HX and the 1600H & 1600P.  Please be aware that if replacing an older model 125 series heater and the heater was vented out the sidewall of the home using the AQ1 powervent then you would need to order the new replacement heater and the new AQ4 powervent kit.  The new model Therm heaters are not compatable with the older AQ1 powervent kit.

The Bosch Therm 330PN is a direct replacement for the older Bosch 80VP, 38B and 1000P units.  These units are too small and cannot be powervented.

Bosch Therm 520HN & 520PN Installed at Elevation


The Bosch Therm 520HN and the Bosch Therm 520PN can be installed at elevations for people with homes or cabins in Colorado, New Mexico, etc.  The Bosch 520HN & 520PN are natural drafting units and require a 6" galvanized type B-vent and must vent vertical for a minimum of 6' to the rain cap for all elevations over 2,000'.

Gas pressure is dependent upon the gas type whether it is Natural Gas (NG) or Liquid Propane (LPG) and also the length of the gas line.  See sizing charts in the installation manual for the heaters.  The Bosch 520HN & 520PN can be installed above 4,500' elevation but the unit would have to have the gas pressure adjusted using a manometer to compensate for the air and gas mix at the high elevation.  Please see the insert below for more details.

Cutting the gas pressure back as per the chart above is called "de-rating" the burner.  Elevations above 2,000 ft require the Bosch tankless water heater to be de-rated 4% for every 1,000 feet.  Basically you will loose 4% of your heating capacity for every 1,000 ft.
