Comparison

HTP EP-150 vs EP-220

Verdict in brief

The EP-220 is the Elite Premier's step into the larger frame: it raises input to 22,000-220,000 BTU/hr and heating capacity to 204 MBH, switches the gas inlet to 1" NPTF, and changes the venting allowance to 4" (200 ft) or 6" (275 ft) — all in the same 95% printed AFUE as the EP-150.

What actually separates them

The EP-150 prints 15,000-150,000 BTU/hr at 95% AFUE and 138 MBH heating capacity; the EP-220 prints 22,000-220,000 at 95% and 204 MBH in LP-550 Table 4.

The EP-220 moves to a 1" NPTF gas inlet (from 3/4") and its vent allowance becomes 4" (200 ft) or 6" (275 ft), so the install needs to accommodate the larger pipe classes.

Shipping weight rises from 126 to 164 lb and water content from 2.0 to 2.6 gal; the EP-220's higher minimum fire (22,000 vs 15,000 BTU/hr) means it modulates on a higher floor in mild weather.

Frequently asked questions

What changes at the EP-220 step?

Input ceiling rises to 220,000 BTU/hr (204 MBH capacity), the gas inlet becomes 1" NPTF and venting moves to 4"/6" pipe — at the same 95% printed AFUE.

Does the EP-220 need a bigger gas line?

LP-558 prints a 1" gas supply for the 220 and larger models against 3/4" for the 80/110/150.

Which fires lower?

The EP-150 at 15,000 BTU/hr minimum versus 22,000 BTU/hr on the EP-220.
