The Bradford White eF Series® Ultra High Efficiency Water Heater is designed to deliver a remarkable thermal efficiency rating in a quiet running unit with venting options that allow for installation flexibility. Several technologically advanced design features are incorporated in the design that will require additional knowledge on the part of the qualified service provider. The information in this manual will instruct service and maintenance professionals on the function, proper diagnosis and repair of The Bradford White eF Series® Ultra High Efficiency Water Heater.

The Bradford White eF Series® Ultra High Efficiency Water Heater uses a low Nox premix power burner located at the top of the water heater to direct a turbulent flame down into a submerged combustion chamber. This turbulence causes a thorough mixing of gas and air for optimum combustion. The combustion gases then travel through a three pass flue system keeping the gases moving at a high velocity. The combination of high turbulence and velocity results in an optimum transfer of heat from the flue gases into the water.

Burner operation is controlled using an electronic ignition module. The module monitors the status of the electronic thermostat, vent temperature limit switch, vent system pressure switches and a flame sensor to control output voltage to blower motor, hot surface igniter/spark rod and gas valve. The module contains programming which determines the sequence of operation and timings for purge periods, trial for ignition, flame sensing and lockout. The module will also provide diagnostic information to help in determining the cause of system lockouts.

The contents in this manual are detailed informational tools to assist in the proper diagnosis of the eF Series® Ultra High Efficiency Water Heater operational faults. Please read this service manual completely and provide as much information regarding the eF Series® Ultra High Efficiency Water Heater operation and installation specific concerns.
