Series facts

Type

Efficiency
Unknown
Fuel
Lochinvar prints the model codes with a fuel letter — "N" for natural gas and "L" for propane — on the ratings plates and in the I&O ratings tables (KBX0400(N,L) through KBX1000(N,L), FTX400(N,L) through FTX1000(N,L), FB(N,L)0751-FB(N,L)6001 and FCB1000(N,L)-FCB6000(N,L)); a separate FBD dual-fuel variant exists in the Crest FB line.
Venting
Category IV sealed combustion. The FTX400N product page lists the vent type as "Room Air/Direct Vent" with PVC, CPVC, polypropylene and AL29-4C stainless steel vent materials, direct venting to 100 equivalent feet per the page feature list and the FTXL submittal, and a common vent kit. The fire-tube heat exchanger suits variable-primary systems per Lochinvar's 2024 newsroom.

About the FTXL (FTX)

The FTXL Fire Tube Boiler is Lochinvar's floor-standing commercial condensing fire-tube line, bringing the stainless steel fire-tube design to light commercial loads: the FTX400N page describes models from 399,000 to 999,000 BTU/hr with the 7" SMART TOUCH touchscreen, CON·X·US remote connectivity, 10:1 turndown on the 400 and 500 sizes and flow rates from 10 to 105 GPM. The FTXL submittal prints per-model thermal efficiencies of 98.0% (FTX400), 97.7% (FTX500), 97.5% (FTX600), 97.2% (FTX725), 97.0% (FTX850) and 98.3% (FTX1000) — Boilers.ca quotes these per-model submittal figures rather than the 98.3% line-wide claim in Lochinvar's 2024 press release, which the per-model documents contradict.

The I&O manual (Rev G, covering Models 400-850 Series 120 and 1000 Series 110) prints the ratings table reproduced on each FTXL model page: minimum and maximum inputs, gross output, AHRI net water rating, water content, water and gas connections and air-inlet and vent sizes. Turndown per the submittal is 10:1 on the FTX400, FTX500 and FTX1000 and 7:1 on the FTX600, FTX725 and FTX850, matching the minimum inputs in the rating table. The product page marks the line ENERGY STAR certified with an ASME H stamp, the FTX400N page prints a 10-year heat exchanger warranty, Lochinvar's Canada English pages are identical to the United States pages, and the fire-tube design is suited to variable-primary systems per the 2024 newsroom.

    Frequently asked questions

    What thermal efficiency does the FTXL achieve?

    The FTXL submittal prints per-model thermal efficiencies of 98.0% (FTX400), 97.7% (FTX500), 97.5% (FTX600), 97.2% (FTX725), 97.0% (FTX850) and 98.3% (FTX1000). Lochinvar's 2024 press release claims 98.3% for the whole line, but the per-model documents contradict that, so Boilers.ca uses the submittal figures.

    Which FTXL sizes have 10:1 turndown?

    The FTXL submittal lists 10:1 turndown on the FTX400, FTX500 and FTX1000 and 7:1 on the FTX600, FTX725 and FTX850 — consistent with the minimum inputs in the I&O ratings table.

    Is the FTXL available in Canada?

    Lochinvar's Canada English (en_CA) FTXL product pages are identical to the United States pages, matching the pattern of the rest of the brand's line documented on Boilers.ca.
