Comparison

NTI Trinity TFTN340 vs TFTN399

Verdict in brief

The TFTN340 and TFTN399 are the two largest TFTN wall models and share everything but depth and ceiling: both are rated 95.4% thermal efficiency, weigh 250 lb with water, measure 25 1/4 by 36 1/2 inches, use 1 1/2" NPT connections and 4" venting. The 399 fires to 399 MBH and is 2 3/8 inches deeper.

What actually separates them

NTI publishes the 340 at 39.9 to 340 MBH and the 399 at 39.9 to 399 MBH — the same 39.9 MBH minimum fire and the same 95.4% thermal-efficiency rating. Both weigh 250 lb with water, measure 25 1/4 inches wide and 36 1/2 inches high, and connect on 1 1/2" NPT CH pipe with 4" venting to 150 ft per side.

The only physical difference NTI's table shows is depth: 18 7/8 inches for the 340 against 21 1/4 inches for the 399, which houses the larger input. Both minimum fires are identical at 39.9 MBH, so the 399 costs nothing in low-fire behaviour over the 340.

Both are heating-only wall models at the top of the TFTN wall range. The 399 earns its extra 59 MBH of ceiling when the heat-loss or plant-demand calculation approaches 399 MBH; below that the 340 delivers the same low-fire behaviour, weight and venting at a smaller input.

The NTI Trinity TFTN340 is the first of the two largest TFTN wall models: 39.9 to 340 MBH input, rated 95.4% thermal efficiency rather than AFUE, at 250 lb with water in a 25 1/4 inch-wide cabinet with 4" venting to 150 ft.

Frequently asked questions

Are the TFTN340 and TFTN399 the same size?

Almost. Both are 25 1/4 inches wide and 36 1/2 inches high at 250 lb with water; the 399 is 21 1/4 inches deep against the 340's 18 7/8 inches.

Do they have the same minimum fire?

Yes — both fire down to 39.9 MBH, so the 399's extra ceiling comes without raising the low-fire floor.

When is the TFTN399 worth it?

When the calculated load or plant demand exceeds 340 MBH. With identical low-fire behaviour, the only reasons not to choose the 399 are its 2 3/8 inches of extra depth and the capacity you would not use.

Not sure which one fits your home?
