Comparison

NTI Trinity Lx300 vs Lx400

Verdict in brief

The Lx300 and Lx400 are the two mid-size Trinity Lx boilers in the wall-hung-kit class: the Lx400 fires 75 to 399 MBH instead of 55 to 275 MBH and is the first Lx rated 94% AFUE, weighing 225 lb against 180 lb. Both vent in 4" pipe to 100 ft and share the 1 1/4" water connection class.

What actually separates them

The Lx300 fires 55 to 275 MBH at 93.7% AFUE and the Lx400 fires 75 to 399 MBH at 94% AFUE — the first size at which NTI's page lists the 94% figure. Both models use 1 1/4" NPT female water connections and 4" venting to 100 ft per side, while the Lx400's gas connection steps from 1/2" to 3/4" NPT female.

Weight rises from 180 to 225 lb, and the minimum fire from 55 to 75 MBH. The Lx400 also sits at the top of NTI's wall-hung-capable range: the page introduction says sizes up to 399 MBH can be wall-hung, and the features list includes the wall-hung kit through the Lx400.

Both are heating-only fire-tube boilers with the same 4" venting plan. The Lx400 is the step when the plant-demand calculation exceeds 275 MBH and approaches 399 MBH; loads within the 300's range keep the lower minimum fire and lighter 180 lb cabinet.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Lx400 add over the Lx300?

Input rises from 275 to 399 MBH, AFUE from 93.7% to 94%, weight from 180 to 225 lb, and the gas connection from 1/2" to 3/4" NPT female.

Is the Lx400 the largest wall-hung Lx?

NTI's page says sizes up to 399 MBH can be mounted wall-hung, which puts the Lx400 at the top of that class; the wall-hung kit is listed as included through the Lx400.

Do both models vent the same way?

Yes — 4" pipe with a 100 ft maximum equivalent run per side on both.
