About the Phantom-X

The Phantom-X 210-285 is the current Crown condensing line for residential and light-commercial loads, sold under Velocity Boiler Works (crownboiler.com redirects to velocityboilerworks.com). The product page describes a stainless steel water-tube, high-efficiency condensing gas-fired hot water boiler in two sizes — PHNTM210 (42–210 MBH input) and PHNTM285 (57–285 MBH) — both printing 95.0% AFUE with a modulating burner at 5:1 turndown and direct spark ignition.

The Sage2.x control provides domestic water priority with priority protection, warm-weather shutdown, freeze protection and pump exercise, and supports multiple-boiler lead/lag for up to 8 boilers; an outdoor reset sensor is included. The boilers offer multiple venting options (two-pipe and concentric per the I&O manual, with derates at maximum vent length) and a stackable design the page promotes for floor-space savings. For elevations above 2,000 ft ratings reduce 4% per 1,000 ft, LP is not permitted above 7,000 ft, and the page notes Canadian installations above 4,500 ft should consult the authority having jurisdiction.

Boilers.ca documents both Phantom-X models at model level from the product page and I&O manual 105357-06 (12/24). No official Canadian-sales statement was found, so canadianStatus stays 'unknown'; installation, gas and venting work belongs with a licensed contractor.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Phantom-X available in Canada?

No official Canadian-sales statement was found, so canadianStatus is recorded as 'unknown'. The product page does note that Canadian installations above 4,500 ft should consult the authority having jurisdiction.

What sizes does the Phantom-X come in?

Two: PHNTM210 (42–210 MBH input, 169 MBH AHRI net) and PHNTM285 (57–285 MBH input, 228 MBH AHRI net), both rated 95.0% AFUE per the product ratings table.

How does the Phantom-X differ from the Phantom II?

Phantom-X models fire 210–285 MBH at 5:1 turndown on the Sage2.x control and target residential/light-commercial plants; the Phantom II (80–180 MBH heat-only, 136/200 MBH combi) is the smaller residential line at 10:1 turndown on the gas-adaptive 'PHTM II' control.
