Triangle Tube Instinct 199S (floor) in practice

The INSFS199S closes the top of the Instinct solo range in the floor form factor: 24,875 to 199,000 BTU/h at 95% AFUE with an 8:1 turndown, 184 MBH DOE capacity and a 159 MBH net AHRI rating, standing 41" tall in the 22"-square cabinet at 169 lb. It is the largest heating-only model in the entire Instinct line.

As with the wall 199S, the page prints no 2" vent run for this size — the 3" maximum is 100 ft — so installations plan around 3" venting. The floor package keeps the 1" MNPT supply/return (1 1/4" FPT with the 548 Caleffi Separator), 3/4" MNPT gas connection and up-to-six-boiler cascade capability of the floor line. Triangle Tube ceased operations November 3, 2025; this model is documented for the installed base.

Best suited to

  • Large homes and light commercial plants needing a floor-standing 199 MBH solo
  • Multi-boiler floor cascades where each unit covers up to 199 MBH
  • Heating-only systems pairing the top Instinct solo with a high-recovery indirect tank

Frequently asked questions

Is the floor 199S the largest Instinct heating-only boiler?

Yes. At 199,000 BTU/h maximum input it matches the wall 199S and tops the solo line; the only Instinct models with the same input are the 155C/199C combis, which add domestic hot water production.

Does the INSFS199S need special venting?

The product page prints no 2" vent run for the 199S and lists a 100 ft maximum in 3". All Instinct venting uses the 3-in-1 adapter for PVC, polypropylene or stainless steel, with ULC-S636-listed materials required for Canadian installations.
