Comparison

HTP UFT-100W vs UFT-120W

Verdict in brief

Stepping from the UFT-100W to the UFT-120W raises the input ceiling from 100,000 to 120,000 BTU/hr and heating capacity from 95 to 114 MBH, and the printed DOE AFUE rises from 95.1% to 95.6% — the 120 is the highest-rated of the compact 80–140 group. The cost is 10 lb of wall weight (100 lb versus 90 lb), with the same cabinet footprint and venting.

What actually separates them

The UFT-100W and UFT-120W share the 17.5 x 34 x 15.4 in wall cabinet, the 10:1 turndown family claim, the 2"-to-50 ft / 3"-to-100 ft venting and the 1-1/4" NPT connections. The 120 model adds 20 MBH of input ceiling (120,000 against 100,000 BTU/hr) and carries 10 lb more wall-mounted mass at 100 lb.

Efficiency moves the other way from the 80-to-100 step: the UFT-120W prints 95.6% DOE AFUE against 95.1% for the UFT-100W, making it the most efficient of the 80–140 compact cabinet group even though it is larger. Its heating capacity prints at 114 MBH against 95 MBH.

Minimum fires differ modestly (12,000 against 10,000 BTU/hr), so neither model has a low-fire advantage worth sizing on. Both keep identical venting, water-pressure and warranty terms — the decision is purely the design-day heat loss.

Frequently asked questions

Is the UFT-120W more efficient than the UFT-100W?

Yes, on the printed figures: 95.6% DOE AFUE against 95.1%. Boilers.ca records each model's printed number rather than a family average.

Do the two models share a cabinet?

Yes — both are the 17.5 x 34 x 15.4 in wall cabinet, but the 120's wall package weighs 100 lb against the 100's 90 lb.

Which size should a home with about a 100 MBH design load choose?

A licensed heat-loss calculation settles it. The 120 only earns its place when the load genuinely needs more than the 100's 95 MBH of heating capacity.

Not sure which one fits your home?

A consultation includes a heat-loss review so the size is right the first time.
