Features N/A The LD Power Direct Vent FVIR Defender Safety System® Models Feature:
  • Bradford White ICON System™ - Intelligent gas control with spark to pilot ignition system eliminates the constant burning pilot. This results in savings of pilot gas during stand by periods (120 V.A.C.).
    • Enhanced Performance - Proprietary algorithms provide enhanced First Hour Delivery ratings and tighter temperature differentials.
    • Advanced Temperature Control System - Microprocessor constantly monitors and controls burner operation to maintain consistent and accurate water temperature levels.
    • Intelligent Diagnostics - n exclusive green LED light prompts the installer during start-Up and provides ten different diagnostic codes to assist in troubleshooting.
    • Separate Immersed Thermowell - High strength advanced polymer composite thermowell provides isolation between electric temperature sensor and surrounding water. No need to drain the tank when removing gas valve.
  • Compatible With Optional Accessory Packages - Setback Control Package, Protection Package and Inlet Shut-Off Valve.
  • Closed Combustion Venting System - Power Direct Vent closed combustion system utilizes external air for combustion and exhausts directly to the outside through a separate two-pipe system. The air intake and exhaust vent are 3" connections. The equivalent feet of intake venting cannot be greater than the equivalent feet of exhaust venting.
  • Powerful Blower Motor - Our design has higher torque for greater resistance to outside winds and the power to eliminate problems with difficult venting situations. This significantly quieter motor runs cooler for a considerably longer operational life.
  • Cast Aluminum Air Intake Boot - A cast molded air intake boot design provides exceptional durability during installation and operation.
  • Horizontal and Vertical Venting - With 3" or 4" PVC, ABS, or CPVC (Maximum equivalent vent length for each pipe on reverse side).
  • Optional Concentric Vent Kit Termination - 3" termination fitting provides for only one exit opening through a wall or roof. (Subtract 10 ft. for intake pipe and 10 ft. for exhaust pipe when calculating total vent length.).
  • Flammable Vapor Sensor - Electronic sensor prevents water heater operation if flammable vapors are detected.
  • Factory Installed Hydrojet 2™ Total Performance System - Cold water inlet sediment reducing device helps prevent sediment build up in tank. Increases first hour delivery of hot water while minimizing temperature build up in tank.
  • Vitraglas® Lining - Bradford White water heater tanks are protected from the corrosive effects of hot water by an exclusive ceramic porcelain-like coating.
  • Steel Tank - Heavy gauge steel automatically formed, rolled and welded.
  • Stainless Steel Flue Baffle - Maximizes the amount of heat absorbed by the tank and reduces heat loss during standby periods.
  • 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 eases installation.
  • Side Connections - 3/4" NPT tappings allow easy connections for space heating applications (Potable water only).
  • Factory Installed Heat Traps - Design incorporates a flexible disk that reduces heat loss in piping and eliminates the potential for noise generation.
  • Protective Magnesium Anode Rod - Provides added protection against corrosion for long trouble-free service.
  • T&P Relief Valve - Included.
  • Low Restriction Brass Drain Valve - Durable tamper proof design.
  • Design Certified by CSA International (Formerly AGA and CGA).
General Information N/A All gas water heaters are certified at 300 psi test pressure (2068 kPa) and 150 psi working pressure (1034 kPa). All water connections are 3/4" NPT (19 mm) on 11" (203 mm) centers. All gas connections are 1/2" (13 mm).
All models design certified by CSA International (formerly AGA/CGA), to meet ANSI standard Z-21.10.1 and peak performance rated.
Dimensions and specifications subject to change without notice in accordance with our policy of continuous product improvement. Suitable for Water (Potable) Heating and Space Heating.
Toxic chemicals, such as those used for boiler treatment, shall NEVER be introduced into this system. This unit may NEVER be connected to any existing heating system or component(s) previously used with a non-potable water heating appliance.
