Comparison

Fulton VANTAGE VTG-2000 vs VANTAGE VTG-3000

Verdict in brief

The VANTAGE VTG-3000 adds 1,000,000 BTU/hr of input and 971,000 BTU/hr of output over the VANTAGE VTG-2000 on the same VANTAGE platform. The VTG-3000 adds 1,000,000 BTU/hr of input, steps the gas connection from 1-1/2 in to 2 in and the flue from 10 in to 12 in, and nearly doubles the water volume to 215 gal.

What actually separates them

The VTG-2000 is rated 2,000,000 BTU/hr input and 1,918,000 BTU/hr output with Up to 5:1 (natural gas) turndown; the VTG-3000 is rated 3,000,000 BTU/hr input and 2,889,000 BTU/hr output with Up to 5:1 (natural gas) turndown. Rated efficiency moves from 95.7% on the VTG-2000 to 96.3% on the VTG-3000 in the official thermal-efficiency column.

The VTG-3000 adds 1,000,000 BTU/hr of input, steps the gas connection from 1-1/2 in to 2 in and the flue from 10 in to 12 in, and nearly doubles the water volume to 215 gal. Typical flow at a 20°F rise rises from 192 gpm to 289 gpm, which sizes the primary loop. Dry weight steps from 3,800 lb to 5,300 lb, so rigging and floor loading should be checked against the larger unit.

Both sizes are documented in the same official Fulton data sheet, so the choice is a heat-loss and plant-layout decision: size to the design-day load, then verify connection sizes, venting and weight against the sheet for the exact model.
