This water heater is of the closed combustion type (direct venting) for
mobile home applications only, where all combustion air is supplied from
the outdoors through the air intake and all combusted gas products are
vented directly to the outside by means of the roof jack. No draft diverter
(vent hood) is required for this water heater. The ETL listing of this water
heater includes the field installation of the following components: roof
jack, roof jack clamp, air intake, air intake seal, and heater tie down
materials. These components for field installation are shipped with the
heater in a separate box and must be installed according to instructions.
No other components are approved for use with the water heater. The
water heater must be installed in accordance with The Federal Mobile
Home Construction and Safety Standard or in the absence of such
standard, The Standard for Mobile Homes (ANSI/NFPA No. 601B-1977)
Features
- Sealed Combustion Roof Jack Kit - Ordered separately and includes an
adjustable air intake tube, roof jack and hardware. Must specify roof jack
size when ordering. Available in 12", 18"/32", 32"/60" or 48"/95" lengths.
- Flue Baffle - Designed to maximize the amount of heat absorbed in the
lower portion of tank. Minimizes air movement in the heater during standby
periods to decrease heat loss up the flue.
- Heat Traps - Installed on hot water outlet to minimize heat loss through
piping.
- Vitraglas® Lining - Bradford White tanks are lined with an exclusively
engineered enamel formula that provides superior tank protection from the
highly corrosive effects of hot water. This formula (Vitraglas®) is fused to the
steel surface by firing at a temperature of over 1600°F (871°C).
- Fully Automatic Controls - Fast acting surface-mount thermostats for
automatic temperature control. Factory-installed sensitive manual reset
energy cutoff for safety to prevent overheating.
- 2" Non-CFC Foam Insulation - Covers the sides and top of tank, reducing
the amount of heat loss. This results in less energy consumption, improved
operation efficiencies, and jacket rigidity.
- Water Connections - 3/4" NPT factory-installed true dielectric fittings
extend water heater life and ease installation.
- Protective Magnesium Anode Rod - Provides added protection against
corrosion for long trouble-free service.
- T&P Relief Valve - Installed.
- Low Restriction Brass Drain Valve - Durable tamper-proof design.
- Convertible Gas Control - Easily convertible control for use with either
Propane or Natural Gas.
