Replacing the existing unit with a vertical tank of the same capacity then becomes impossible. The \u003cstrong\u003eBradford White LE250LN3-3NCWW commercial electric water heater\u003c\/strong\u003e solves that puzzle: it offers \u003cstrong\u003e45 US gallons\u003c\/strong\u003e (37 imperial gallons, 170 L) in a tank only 33 7\/16 in. high, with two 4,500 W elements.

The unit also has to be brought down, manoeuvred between columns and ducts, and then left with enough space for service. At 26 in. (660 mm) in diameter and 140 lb (64 kg) empty, the LE250LN3-3NCWW is handled by two people with the right equipment. Its low height leaves the room needed for connections and access to the elements, even under low joists.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring the assessment, we measure the stairs, the passages and the clear height at the planned location. We also check for a drain for the relief valve and flushing, a point often overlooked in old basements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eManufacturer data for the LE250LN3-3NCWW\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCapacity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 45 US gallons (37 imperial gallons, 170 L).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecovery\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18 US gallons per hour (15 imperial gallons) at a 100 °F rise; 68 L\/h at a 56 °C rise, in 4,500 W\/4,500 W non-simultaneous operation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSimultaneous operation\u003c\/strong\u003e: according to the manufacturer, recovery approximately doubles.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eElements\u003c\/strong\u003e: two 4,500 W screw-in immersion elements, copper; INCOLOY-type element available on request.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFactory wiring\u003c\/strong\u003e: 240 V three-phase, interlocking (non-simultaneous), unless otherwise specified.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVoltages provided\u003c\/strong\u003e: 120 V, 208 V, 240 V, 277 V and 480 V; 380 V in the kit table.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWater connections\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 in.

The reserve covers the moments when everyone draws at the same time, and the recovery of 18 US gallons per hour, in non-simultaneous mode, rebuilds it between peaks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf demand grows, the unit can be converted on site for simultaneous operation, which approximately doubles recovery according to Bradford White. This option does require a circuit able to supply both 4,500 W elements at the same time; we recommend it only after checking your panel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eInstalling on a mezzanine or a platform\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA mechanical mezzanine is a good way to free up floor space, but it must be designed for the load. Once filled, a 45 US gallon tank weighs far more than its 140 lb empty. We check the structure with you before confirming the location. Above an occupied space, we also recommend a drain pan connected to a drain: it is a simple precaution that can prevent water damage in the space below.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFactory wiring and electrical options\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBradford White ships this water heater in the standard three-phase configuration, wired at 240 V with two interlocked 4,500 W elements. The unit can be converted on site to single-phase, to simultaneous operation, or both. The manufacturer asks that wattage and voltage be specified when ordering; we therefore confirm the exact configuration in our written quote once the building’s supply has been checked. The electrical connections are made under our RBQ licence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eComponents built to last\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tank is lined with Vitraglas vitreous enamel with Microban, an antimicrobial technology, and its true dielectric fittings, installed at the factory, limit corrosion at the joint with the piping. The standard elements are copper, screw-in immersion type; an INCOLOY-type element is available on request for hard or aggressive water. Each element is replaced individually, without taking the tank out of its location, a real advantage in a hard-to-reach basement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMaintenance in a tight space\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn a low basement or on a mezzanine, maintenance is easier when it was planned from the installation. We leave clear access to the drain valve, the elements and the relief valve. We then recommend one visit a year: flushing to clear sediment, checking the elements and their thermostats, and testing the relief valve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eListing and warranty\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAccording to Bradford White’s documentation, all models are UL listed. The \"3\" in the model number corresponds to the 3-year limited tank warranty and 1 year on parts. A 5-year warranty version exists under a different number; we can check its availability when preparing the quote.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation of the Bradford White LE250LN3-3NCWW by AirGreen\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAirGreen is a family business established in Montreal, active for more than fifteen years in heating, ventilation and air conditioning and holder of RBQ licence 5645-9605-01 (ventilation, refrigeration and electrical).
