Highly Effective Self-Cleaning System for

High Efficiency, High Deliverability,
Highly Effective Self-Cleaning System
A clean tank is just the beginning.
Peak water temperatures inside the tank are reduced by
as much as 17%. Water heaters with the Hydrojet system
don’t have to work as hard or as often to maintain a
maximum supply of hot water at the desired temperature.
They heat water faster and use less energy to do it.
Bradford White’s Hydrojet Total Performance System
gives the plumbing trade a strong technological
advantage. It applies the laws of physics and augments
the power of flowing water to create a new level of top
performance. And, it’s standard equipment on all

The Hydrojet System lengthens the
operating life of a water heater.
The Hydrojet delivery tube, with
a series of concentric “jet
ports”, creates an incredible
amount of turbulent action

outward into the tank to

action. The remainder of the
ports direct flow inward to
create a counter-rotating action
that produces increased
turbulence and accelerated mixing
inside the tube. The pressure
increases and the water is forcefully
blown out into the tank. Unlike a
conventional dip tube where water exits with a
weak diffusing action, water exiting the Hydrojet system
is in complete turbulence. This new design is exceptionally
efficient, measured to be three to five times better than
an ordinary dip tube. Not surprisingly, the Hydrojet
system generates the desired turbulent action even with
low incoming flow rates.

Because of more efficient mixing, extreme temperature
differences throughout the tank (called thermal
stratification or stacking) are greatly reduced.

Sediment
Reduction System.
Highly Effective Self-Cleaning
System for Commercial Units
Reduces Harmful Sediment.
A common cause of premature tank
failure and reduced energy efficiency in
all water heaters is sediment build up.
The detrimental effects of this universal
problem are interference in heat
transfer, lower tank capacity, corrosion,
early parts failure and an annoying
rumbling noise. The result of all
this is a water heater that
must work harder and
consume much more
energy. The Hydrojet
Sediment Reduction
System uses
a variation of the
original residential
Hydrojet system to
block the build up of
harmful sediment in
commercial units.
Each jetport forces incoming water out into the tank
before it reaches the end or outlet of the tube. Unique
jetport positioning generates an increase in turbulence by
creating accelerating water current inside the tank.
Mini-Hydrojet Dip Tube, designed to increase the
sediment reduction performance and eliminate
any possibility of decreased performance.
Two powerful
variations of the
Hydrojet System.
The Commercial Hydrojet
System incorporates up to
two stainless steel inlet
tubes. One is the traditional top connect version and the
other is a new design front connection. Both rely on the
patented jetport concept that proved extremely effective
in the residential Hydrojet system. In the top connect
version, patented jetports built into the inlet tube are
used to create turbulence inside the tank. The turbulence
helps reduce sediment build-up.
With front connect Hydrojet inlet tube
only one dynamic jetport is needed to
cause the extreme turbulence that is
Hydrojet’s claim to fame.
On front connect models,
the jetport is placed on the
underside of the tube centered
a short distance from the end of
the outlet. Water becomes
pressurized, fans out and is
sprayed with force. This single
jetport acts as a flow disrupter
increasing turbulence and
extending the effective scouring
action across the bottom of the
tank. Two alignment notches in
the water connection end of the
tube help the installer ensure
that the front connect Hydrojet tube is
positioned for maximum performance. Both
Hydrojet tubes are installed at the factory free
of charge providing flexibility at the time of
installation.
The Commercial Hydrojet System is
constructed of stainless steel for a lifetime
of corrosion-free performance.
Sediment accumulation can rob a water heater
of efficiency and cause premature tank failure.
Bradford White’s Defender Safety System® is a new combustion technology that
resists the ignition of flammable vapors that can occur outside of the water
heater. The unique design provides years of trouble-free service.
