Comparison

Viessmann Vitocrossal 300 CU3A-94 vs CU3A-125

Verdict in brief

The CU3A-94 and CU3A-125 are the two smallest floor-standing Vitocrossal 300 models and share the compact 26 x 27-inch footprint at 95% AFUE. The 125 fires higher at both ends — 25,000 to 125,000 BTU (7.3 to 36.6 kW) against the 94's 19,000 to 94,000 BTU (5.6 to 27.5 kW) — and weighs 275 lb (125 kg) against 269 lb (122 kg), so the 94's lower minimum fire is its main argument in low-load homes.

What actually separates them

Both models are floor-standing condensing boilers on the same CU3A platform: 95% AFUE, a stainless steel Inox-Crossal heat exchanger, a MatriX dome gas burner with Lambda Pro control and a 5:1 turndown ratio. The published difference is input range: 19,000 to 94,000 BTU (5.6 to 27.5 kW) for the 94, and 25,000 to 125,000 BTU (7.3 to 36.6 kW) for the 125.

The minimum fire rates matter in mild climates: the 94 drops to 19,000 BTU and the 125 only to 25,000 BTU. In a home whose load sits low for much of the year the 94 can track shoulder-season demand more closely, while the 125's extra 31 MBH of ceiling serves larger loads and faster indirect-tank recovery.

The cabinets are nearly identical: both are 26 inches (660 mm) wide and 27 inches (684 mm) deep and stand 61.5 inches (1562 mm) with the control closed, while weight steps from 269 lb (122 kg) on the 94 to 275 lb (125 kg) on the 125. Neither model is a combi, and both operate up to 194°F (90°C) and 10,000 ft (3,000 m) of altitude per the page.

Frequently asked questions

Are the CU3A-94 and CU3A-125 the same size?

Nearly. Both share the 26 x 27 inch (660 x 684 mm) footprint and 61.5-inch height; the 125 weighs 275 lb (125 kg) against 269 lb (122 kg) for the 94, per Viessmann Canada.

What are the firing ranges of each model?

The 94 fires 19,000 to 94,000 BTU (5.6 to 27.5 kW) and the 125 fires 25,000 to 125,000 BTU (7.3 to 36.6 kW), both rated 95% AFUE.

When does the CU3A-125 make more sense than the CU3A-94?

When the heat-loss calculation plus hot-water recovery demand exceeds the 94's ceiling. Below that, the 94's lower 19,000 BTU minimum fire matches low loads more closely.
