The Bradford White Defender Safety System® is
designed to be the safest, most reliable flammable
vapor ignition resistant system in the industry.
The heart of Bradford White’s Defender Safety System®is
the ScreenLok
The louvered flame arrestor design increases the speed of incoming
combustion air and creates a vector effect inside the combustion
chamber when flammable vapors are ignited. This prevents flames from
traveling back through the flame arrestor and outside the water heater.
Resettable Thermal Switch
Safely shuts system down in case of ongoing flammable vapor
burn in combustion chamber or air flow blockage. Allows quick
and easy service (only for atmospheric models).
Air Scrubbing Combustion System
Openings in the water heater jacket and the combustion
chamber base force directional changes to combustion air flow
effectively scrubbing the air of lint and dust.
