SECTION 4: MAINTENANCE
CAUTION!
All service on the BLP Series water heaters must be performed by trained and experienced
technicians from appropriate service agencies.
This section covers the service and maintenance for BLP Series water heaters and provides
instructions for the inspection and replacement of critical parts and components.
Any questions concerning maintenance procedures should be directed to your local rep of the
Bradford White Factory. Please be prepared with model and serial numbers of the unit and heat
exchanger coils prior to contacting.
NOTE:
Taking the unit offline is required for many of the maintenance procedures in this section, so all
technicians performing maintenance should be familiar with the procedures necessary for unit
shutdown (Section 3.8) and unit startup (Section 3.7).
Any component(s) directly connected or linked to the component being replaced should
carefully be examined before maintenance procedures are started. If any of the related
components show signs of wear or improper operation, they should be considered for
replacement at the same time.
