Bradford White bw-re240l6 Electric Water Heater 40 Gal

Product Description

The BRADFORD WHITE bw-re240l6 is a residential electric water heater built in a lowboy configuration and rated for 240-volt operation. The lowboy tank profile is designed for installations with limited vertical clearance, such as crawl spaces, utility closets, and low-ceiling mechanical rooms. With a 40-gallon storage capacity, it delivers reliable hot water supply for residential applications. A licensed plumber or qualified water heater installer handles the connection of supply and discharge lines, along with the electrical hookup to a dedicated 240-volt circuit. This unit is appropriate for single-family homes and small multi-unit residential settings.

The bw-re240l6 is intended for residential indoor installations where vertical space is restricted but floor space allows for a wider, lower-profile tank. The lowboy design keeps the overall unit height reduced compared to a standard tall tank of equivalent capacity. It is suited for basement utility areas, manufactured housing, and other spaces where a standard-height water heater cannot be accommodated. All plumbing and electrical connections should conform to local codes and applicable standards before the unit is placed into service.

• 40-gallon storage capacity suitable for residential hot water demand

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified technician in accordance with local plumbing and electrical codes. Shut off the electrical supply at the breaker panel and close the cold water supply valve before disconnecting or connecting any components. The unit requires a dedicated 240-volt circuit with appropriate wire gauge and breaker sizing as specified by NEC guidelines and local authority having jurisdiction. A T and P relief valve discharge pipe must be installed and routed per local code requirements before placing the unit into service.
