Bradford White M-I-WH6U6SS User manual

Residential Wall Hung
Energy Saver Electric Water Heater
The Wall Hung Electric Models Feature:
Bradford White is ISO registered to the 9001-2008 standard.
■Fully Automatic Controls—Fast acting surface-mount thermostat for
automatic temperature control. Factory installed sensitive manual reset
energy cut-off for safety to prevent overheating.
■Direct Heat Transfer With a Single Immersed Element—Transfers heat
directly and efficiently to the water. Screw-in style element.
■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).
■1" 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 (30 gallon model has 2").
■Factory Installed Heavy Duty Wall Mounting Bracket—no additional
brackets or modifications required.
■Factory installed nipples ease installation.
■Water Connections—3/4" NPT factory installed true dielectric fittings
extend water heater life and eases installation. Located on the bottom for
easier installation.
■Protective Magnesium Anode Rod—Provides added protection against
corrosion for long trouble-free service.
■Steel Tank—Heavy gauge steel automatically formed, rolled, and welded.
■Voltages Available—120V, 208V, 240V, 277V, 480V.
