The \u003cstrong\u003eBradford White RE220U6-1NAL electric water heater\u003c\/strong\u003e targets exactly this middle ground, with a reserve of \u003cstrong\u003e18 US gallons (15 imperial gallons, 68 L)\u003c\/strong\u003e, a \u003cstrong\u003e1,500 W\u003c\/strong\u003e element and a \u003cstrong\u003e120 V\u003c\/strong\u003e supply.

It keeps the strengths of this line, namely a 120 V supply and a single element, but with a noticeably more generous reserve than the small sink models. At 26 1\/4 in. tall and 20 in. in diameter, it remains low enough to fit under a staircase, in a bathroom closet or in the corner of a crowded mechanical room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA short shower, yes; a whole house, no\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLet us be clear about what this size can do. Its reserve handles handwashing and dishes with ease, and a short shower in a guest bathroom or a cottage. After heavy use, the 1,500 W element reheats the water at a rate of 7 US gallons per hour for a 90 °F rise: it therefore takes some time before the reserve is full again. For a family taking several showers in a row, or as the main water heater of a dwelling, we recommend a full-size residential tank instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eManufacturer data\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCapacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18 US gallons, 15 imperial gallons, 68 L.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFactory wiring:\u003c\/strong\u003e 120 V with a 1,500 W element, unless otherwise specified.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of elements:\u003c\/strong\u003e one only.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecovery:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7 US gal\/h (6 imp. gal\/h) at a 90 °F rise; 26 L\/h at a 50 °C rise, based on 1,500 W.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eElement:\u003c\/strong\u003e immersion, screw-in, copper; INCOLOY-type element on request.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConnections:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3\/4 in.

Factory-wired for 120 V and 1,500 W, it only needs a 120 V circuit reserved for the unit, where a full-size tank would require a two-pole 240 V circuit. In a cottage or garage with a limited electrical panel, this greatly simplifies the work. Bradford White also offers the series in 208 V, 240 V, 277 V and 480 V, single-phase only, with wattages from 1,500 W to 6,000 W according to its limitations table; at 120 V, the wattage stays between 1,500 W and 3,000 W. Any configuration other than the factory one is specified when ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKeep the full weight in mind\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEmpty, the tank weighs 67 1\/2 lb. Once filled with its 68 L of water, it becomes much heavier, which rules out a light shelf or a fragile mezzanine floor. We check the support at the intended location and provide a drain pan when the tank is installed above a finished room, to protect the ceiling in case of a leak.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eConstruction and compliance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike the other models in the line, the RE220U6-1NAL receives Bradford White's \u003cstrong\u003eVitraglas with Microban\u003c\/strong\u003e lining. Its copper immersion element screws into the tank, and the factory-installed dielectric fittings limit corrosion where the tank meets the piping. According to the manufacturer, all models are UL listed and applicable models are verified by CSA for energy performance under standard C191.1-M90.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eManufacturer's warranty\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBradford White gives this model a 6-year limited warranty on the tank and 6 years on parts.

We also recommend operating the relief valve during this visit to check that it opens and closes properly.
