FEATURING:
The TTW®Models Feature:
■ ENERGY STAR
®
per the latest ENERGY STAR® criteria revision, as well as most utility rebate
STAR
®
Qualified—Some models meet or exceed requirements for ENERGY
programs.
■ Powerful Blower Motor—Exclusively featuring the AquaVENT MAX
™
from Fasco™ is the
quietest blower motor in the industry. This new blower is a lower profile than previous
versions and features a more robust electrical connection.
-- Ten Foot (3 meter) Power Cord—Included (120 VAC).
■ Horizontal and Vertical Venting—Designed for installations where atmospheric units
cannot be used. Exhaust gases are vented under positive pressure directly out of the
building through the roof or the wall with PVC, ABS or CPVC (Maximum equivalent vent
length on reverse side).
■ 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 standby periods
(120 VAC).
-- Enhanced Performance—Proprietary algorithms provide enhanced First Hour Rating and
tighter temperature differential.
-- 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.
-- Pilot On Indication—Flashing green LED provides positive indication that pilot is on.
-- 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.
■ Advanced ScreenLok
®
Technology Flame Arrestor Design—Flame arrestor is designed
to prevent ignition of flammable vapor outside of the water heater (excluding RG1PV55H6N
& RG2PV75H6N).
■ Flammable Vapor Sensor—Electronic sensor prevents burner operation if flammable
vapors are detected. The sensor will also prevent operation if there is ongoing flammable
vapors burning inside the combustion chamber (excluding RG1PV55H6N & RG2PV75H6N).
■ Maintenance-Free—No regular cleaning of air inlet openings or flame arrestor is required
under normal conditions (excluding RG1PV55H6N & RG2PV75H6N).
■ Sight Window—Offers a view into the combustion chamber to observe the operation of the
pilot and burner.
■ Factory-Installed Hydrojet
®
Total Performance System—Sediment reducing device that
also increases first hour rating of hot water while minimizing temperature build-up in tank.
■ Vitraglas
protection from the highly corrosive effects of hot water. This formula (Vitraglas
®
Lining—An exclusively engineered enamel formula that provides superior tank
®
) is fused to
the steel surface by firing at a temperature of over 1600°F (871°C).
■ Insulation System—Non-CFC foam covers the sides and top of the tank, reducing heat
loss. This results in less energy consumption, improved efficiencies, and jacket rigidity.
■ Water Connections—3⁄4" (19mm) NPT factory-installed true dielectric fittings extend water
heater life and simplify water line connections.
■ 3/4" (19mm) NPT Side Connections—(RG2PV50H6N, RG1PV55H6N, and RG2PV75H6N
only).
■ Factory-Installed Heat Traps—Design incorporates a flexible disk that reduces heat loss in
piping and eliminates the potential for noise generation.
■ Protective Magnesium Rod—(RG1PV55H6N has 2).
■ T&P Relief Valve—Installed.
■ Thermostatic Mixing Valve (ASSE Approved)—Included (RG1PV55H6N only).
■ Low Restrictive Brass Drain Valve—Durable tamper proof design.
■ NOx Emissions—Less than 40 ng/J.
