Residential PDX1 Power Direct Vent
Energy Saver Gas Water Heater
The PDX1 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—An 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—Performance Package,
Protection Package and Inlet Shut-Off Valve.
■ Closed Combustion Venting System—Power Direct Vent models are ideal for
installations which lack sufficient are for combustion, such as new construction
homes or additions which are tightly insulated. These models use a twin pipe
system where combustion air is drawn from outside the building in one pipe, and
combustion products are expelled to the outside in another pipe.
■ Cast Aluminum Air Intake Boot—A cast molded air intake boot design provides
exceptional durability during installation and operation.
■ Horizontal and Vertical Venting—With 2" or 3" PVC, ABS, or CPVC. The equivalent
feet of intake venting cannot be greater than the equivalent feet of exhaust venting.
■ Optional Concentric Vent Kit Termination—2" termination fitting provides for only
one exit opening through a wall or roof. (Subtract 10ft. for intake pipe and 10ft. for
exhaust pipe when calculating total vent length.)
■ Flammable Vapor Sensor—Electronic sensor prevents burner operation if
flammable vapors are detected. The sensor will also prevent burner operation if
there is an ongoing flammable vapor burn inside the combustion chamber.
■ Factory Installed Hydrojet
®
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 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—Surrounds the tank surface, saving energy by
retarding loss of heat.
■ Water Connections— 3⁄4" NPT factory installed true dielectric fittings extend water
heater life and makes installation easier.
■ 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.
