This Bradford White Tall residential gas water heater is available in 30, 40, and 50 gallon capacities, giving you the right size for a range of household needs, with atmospheric venting and a 3/4 inch water connection. The Defender Safety System (FVIR) uses a ScreenLok flame arrestor, a resettable thermal switch, and a sight window for maintenance free, flammable vapor ignition resistant operation, while the Bradford White ICON System intelligent gas control runs without external electricity and holds a tighter temperature differential and consistent hot water temperatures up to 160 degrees Fahrenheit, with an LED status indicator light.

The tank is protected by a Vitraglas lining reinforced with Microban antimicrobial protection, and the Hydrojet Total Performance System raises the First Hour Rating while limiting temperature buildup in the tank. A pedestal base and a factory installed protective anode rod round out this natural gas, atmospheric vent water heater. Professional delivery and installation available through AKK.
