SECTION III: GENERAL INFORMATION

FEATURES

The Bradford White EVERHOT→ IGE series tankless water heater is a high output, high efficiency appliance, which heats the water continuously as hot water is being drawn for use. Unlike tank type storage water heaters, this water heater does not store hot water. The burner operates whenever there is a demand for hot water and is off when the water flow stops. Hot water is continuously supplied for any length of time required, as long as the specified flow rates are not exceeded. There is no need to set the temperature higher than required for sufficient capacity. The EVERHOT water heater has sufficient capacity to supply several hot water faucets simultaneously. The hot water flow capability will be dependent upon the temperature of the outlet water selected. More detail can be found under the “Temperature Adjustment” section of this Installation and Operating Instruction Manual. Your plumbing professional should determine your hot water requirements before installing this water heater to be sure the capacity is sufficient for your application.

•The IGE series water heaters are designed to be installed outdoors on an outside wall. The water heater is compact (23 5/8” (60 cm) H x 13 3/4” (34.9 cm) W x 8 7/8” (22.6 cm) D) and mounts on an outside wall using the supplied wall bracket. No indoor space is needed and the water heater can be mounted at a height convenient for servicing.

•The weight is less than 50 pounds (23 kg) and can be installed by 1 person.

•The burners ignite within 3 seconds of water flow (1/2 gallon/minute (1.9 L/m) minimum) by direct spark ignition. There is no standing pilot.

•A variable speed combustion air blower forces the combustion air supply into the burner compartment.

•No venting system required. For outdoor installation only.

•An optional recess box is available which allows the water heater to be recessed into an outside wall and conceal the piping behind a cover for a more attractive installation. The box enclosure dimensions are: 40 ½” H x 14 ¾” W x 9 ½” D. Contact your Bradford White supplier to order this optional accessory.

•The burner flame is continuously monitored and modulated to match the heating requirements of the water flow. Temperature and flow sensors continually monitor the water flow and outlet water temperature and adjust the burner and combustion air blower to maintain temperature.

•The included, remotely mounted Main Control may be conveniently located near the point of use and is adjustable from 98-160°F for residential models (IGE-199R series), or 98-185°F for commercial models (IGE-199C series). In addition to the Main Control, up to two optional controls are available for setting the temperature in the bathroom fixtures or other remote locations.

•All the controls also display fault codes if the water heater malfunctions to assist with servicing the water heater.

•The heat exchanger coil is provided with anti-freeze heaters for cold climate conditions for protection as low as -30°F (-34°C). Solenoids should be installed to drain the water heater in the event of a power failure.

•The water heater is very quiet in operation.
