1.5Locating the Appliance

The appliance should be located to provide

clearances on all sides for maintenance and inspection. It should not be located in an area where leakage of any connections will result in damage to the area adjacent to the appliance or to lower floors of the structure.

When such a location is not available, it is recommended that a suitable drain pan, adequately drained, be installed under the appliance.

The appliance is design certified by CSA- International for installation on combustible flooring; in basements; in closets, utility rooms or alcoves.

Copper Brute II Water Heaters must never be installed on carpeting. The location for the appliance should be chosen with regard to the vent pipe lengths and external plumbing. The unit shall be installed such that the gas ignition system components are protected from water (dripping, spraying, rain, etc.) during operation and service (circulator replacement, control replacement, etc.). When vented vertically, the heater must be located as close as practical to a chimney or outside wall. If the vent terminal and/or combustion air terminal terminate through a wall, and there is potential for snow accumulation in the local area, both terminals should be installed at an appropriate level above grade.

The dimensions and requirements that are shown in Table 2 should be met when choosing the locations for the heater.

1.3Warranty

Bradford White’s Copper Brute II heaters are

covered by a limited warranty. The owner should fill out the warranty registration card and return it to Bradford White.

All warranty claims must be made to an authorized Bradford White representative or directly to the factory. Claims must include the serial number and model (this information can be found on the rating plate), installation date, and name of the installer. Shipping costs are not included in the warranty coverage.
