Bradford White RG250T6X 50 Gallon Tall Atmospheric Vent Water Heater

Description: Product OverviewIs your hot water heater is more than 10 years old? It might be time to consider a new one. The lifespan of a conventional storage hot water heater is between 10 and 15 years. After all those years of service, sediment build-up and corrosion inside the tank can take their toll. There is no better replacement than a Bradford White Hot Water Heater.The Bradford White RG250T6X is a Liquid Propane, 50 gallon hot water heater. This tank is 60-1/8" from the floor to the Flue Connection and the jacket diameter is 22" wide. Featuring an input of 35,000 BTUs, this hot water heater has a First Hour Rating or First Hour Delivery of 81 gallons. Basically, the First Hour Rating means how much hot water the hot water heater can deliver in an hour of use, starting with a fully heated tank. It does not mean that the hot water will last for one hour. As the cold water enters the tank it is heated, the faster you use your hot water, the faster your water will become tepid and then cold. However, depending on your temperature set point and your household's water use you can calculate how much hot water you need during your busiest hour. As you use the water in the tank, it is continuously being replenished and heated. The Uniform Energy Factor (UEF) is used to determine the energy efficiency of the hot water heater. Recover efficiency, stand-by loss and cycling loss are all included in the energy factor. Typically, the higher the energy factor, the more efficient the water heater. Cost of fuel however, will have an impact on annual operating costs. An example of a 89 gallon peak demand might look like this:5 showers (10 x 5 = 50 gallons)1 bath (15 x 1 = 15 gallons)2 shaves (2 x 2 = 4 gallons)1 dishwasher run (6 x 1 = 6 gallons)2 loads of laundry (7 x 2 = 14 gallons)This household would probably want a hot water heater with a first hour rating of between 87 and 91 gallons. Another important feature when choosing a hot water heater is the Recovery Rise. A 90° recovery rise for this tank is about 41 gallons per hour. All Bradford White hot water heaters are NAECA Compliant. The Bradford White Defender Safety System is designed to be the safest, most reliable flammable vapor ignition resistant system in the industry meeting all the requirements set forth by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). The Defender Safety System features ScreenLok Technology flame arrestor. The louvered flame arrestor design increases the speed of incoming combustion air and creates a vector effect inside the combustion chamber when flammable vapors are ignited, preventing flames from traveling back through the flame arrestor and outside the water heater. Other features include Resettable thermal switch, virtually maintenance freeICON Control System is included on all Bradford White Residential and Light Duty Commercial Water Heaters. Features of the ICON System include:Advanced Temperature Control System - A microprocessor constantly monitors and controls burner operation to maintain consistent and accurate water temperature levelsExclusive Performance SoftwareIntelligent Diagnostics for installers with status indicatorPilot-On-IndicationMillivolt Powered - No external electricity requiredSeparate Immersed Thermowell - No need to drain the tank when removing or replacing the gas valveIntegrated Piezo IgniterHydrojet® Total Performance System: The Hydrojet® Total Performance System is a cold-water inlet tube that was especially engineered to reduce costly sediment buildup and create more thorough mixing of incoming water with stored water. Because of more efficient mixing, extreme temperature differences throughout the tank are greatly reduced. Water Heaters with the Hydrojet Total Performance System don't have to work as hard or as often to maintain a maximum supply of hot water at the desired temperature. They heat water faster and use less energy to do it. And, it’s standard equipment on all Bradford White top connect residential water heaters.Vitraglas® The World's Best Enamel Tank Lining: Bradford White water heater tanks are protected from the corrosive effects of hot water by an exclusive enamel lining. The exclusive Vitraglas enamel lining is uniquely formulated and applied to the interior of the water heater tank.Our test results prove that Vitraglas provides unsurpassed protection against failure when compared to other water heater linings.Standard Features:Advanced ScreenLok® Technology Flame Arrestor designResettable thermal switchMaintenance freePedestal baseSight windowFactory installed Hydrojet® Total Performance System - Cold water inlet sediment reducing device helps prevent sediment build up in tank.
