Product Overview
Residential Power Direct Vent
Energy Saver Gas Water Heater
The PDX2 FVIR Defender Safety System
®
Models Feature:
■ Closed Combustion Venting System—Power Direct Vent closed
combustion system utilizes external air for combustion and exhausts directly
to the outside through a separate two-pipe system. The air intake and exhaust
vent are 3" connections. The equivalent feet of intake venting cannot be
greater than the equivalent feet of exhaust venting.
■ Honeywell Self Diagnostic Electronic Gas Control—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
temperature water temperature levels.
-- Intelligent Diagnostics—An exclusive green LED light prompts the installer
during start-up and provides fifteen different diagnostic codes to assist in
troubleshooting.
-- Pilot On Indication—Flashing green LED provides positive indication that
pilot is on.
■ Compatible With Optional Accessory Packages—Performance Package,
Protection Package and Inlet Shut-Off Valve.
■ Cast Aluminum Air Intake Boot—A cast molded air intake boot design
provides exceptional durability during installation and operation.
■ Flammable Vapor Sensor—Electronic sensor prevents burner operation if
flammable vapors are detected. The sensor will also prevent operation if there
is 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 (871ºC).
■ Optional Concentric Vent Kit Termination—3" 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.)
■ Horizontal and Vertical Venting—With 3" or 4" PVC, ABS, or CPVC
(Maximum equivalent vent length for each pipe on reverse side).
■ 2" 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.
■ 3/4" NPT Side Connections.
■ 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.
■ T&P Relief Valve—Included.
■ Low Restriction Brass Drain Valve—Durable tamper proof design.
