Introduction

The Bradford White Ultra Low NOx Atmospheric Vent Water Heater is designed to deliver a

remarkableamount of hot water at 82% thermal efficiency in aquiet running unit with atop exhaust

vent connection that allows for installation in existing locations. Whilethis unit is vented

atmosphericallythere is no damper required to maintain heat loss during off cycle. Several

technologicallyadvanced design features are incorporated that will require additional knowledge on

the part of the qualified service provider. The information in this manual will instruct service and

maintenance professionalson the function, proper diagnosis and repair of The Bradford White Ultra

Low NOx Atmospheric Vent Water Heater.

The Bradford White Ultra Low NOx Atmospheric Vent Water Heater uses an ultra low NOx premix

power burner located at the top of the water heater to direct aturbulent flame down into the water

backed combustion chamber. This turbulence causes athorough mixing of gas and air for optimum

combustion. The combustion gases then travel through atwo pass flue system keeping the gases

moving at ahigh 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 modulemonitors the status of

the electronic thermostat, blocked vent limit switch, flame sensor to control output voltage to blower

motor, spark rod and gas valve. The modulecontains 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 helpin determining the cause of system lockouts.

The contents in this manual are detailed informational toolsto assist in the proper diagnosis of the

Ultra Low NOx Atmospheric Vent Water Heater operational faults. Please read this service manual

completelyand record as much information regarding the Ultra Low NOx Atmospheric Vent Water

Heater operation and installation specifics related to any concerns.

WARNING!The UCG100H399 model is not approved for 2 inch diameter vent pipe. Venting with 2 inch pipe may result

in damage to the water heater or cause an unsafe condition. DO NOTuse 2 inch Vent Air Intake Pipe!

Determining required intake vent length

1. Determine the total length of straight vent pipe (in feet) required for the intake.

2. Add 5feet of venting for every 90° elbow.

3. Add 2 ½feet of venting for every 45° elbow.

4. Total vent length cannot exceed “Max Intake Vent Length” on the venting tableshown above.

Exampleof Total Intake Vent Length for UCG100H399 installation:

A3” venting system has atotal of two 90-degree elbows and atotal straight pipe length of 10 feet.

Equivalent vent length for elbows: 2 x5feet = 10 feet.

Total equivalent vent distance = 10 feet + 10 feet = 20 feet total equivalent vent length. Thisisbelow

the maximum allowed distance of 25 feet for thismodel using 3” vent.

Sequence of Operation

1. Thermostat callsfor heat.

2. Combustion blower starts.

3. Blower pre-purge period of 30 seconds.

4. Trial for Ignition. (5 seconds, 3trials).

a. Flame establishing period (3 seconds), gas valve opens, sparks from spark rod to burner surface to ignite

the gas.

b. Burner on, flame proving period (2 seconds). Requires aminimum of 1.0microamp through flame sense

rod to prove flame.

c. Ifthe blocked vent safety switch contacts (normallyclosed) opens, then the ignition sequence will not

start and an error code 67 (Vent safety switch failed to close/open) will be shown on the display.

5. Steady State Operation: Burner continues to operate until:

a. Thermostat circuit opens, gas valve closes, blower continues to operate for 30 second post-purge period.

b. Ifthe normallyclosed blocked vent safety switch opens, the gas valve closes, the blower continues to

operate indefinitelyand error code 67 will be displayed after acoupleminutes (up to 5minutes) with

“Service Needed.”

6. Thermostat satisfied.

7. Gas valve closes, burner extinguished.

8. Blower post purge for 30 seconds.

Sequence of Operation

LockoutConditions

The system will go into lock out mode for the following reasons:

1. ERROR CODE110

a. Control board will go into “Soft Lockout”if the main burner cannot be lit or failsto prove flame after 3

ignition trials. The water heater display indicates alockout condition by showing an error code number

110 with “Service Needed”in the control display window. Refer to error codes in the diagnostic section of

this Service Manual. Ina“Soft Lockout”condition, the control will wait for 15 minutes and then make 3

more attempts to light the main burners. Soft lockout reset is accomplished by depressing the lower right

button under “Reset”for 3seconds.

2. ERROR CODE80

a. Ifthe top of the tank shouldexceed 207°F,then the high limit control will shut off the burner and the water

heater will go into a“Hard Lockout.”Error code 80 will be shown in the water heater display. The control

can onlybe reset in the “Service Mode,”which is detailed in the “Troubleshooting”section of this Service

Manual.

3. ERROR CODE67

a. Ifthe vent safety switch located on the draft hood shouldopen, the gas valve will close, the blower will

post-purge and error code 67 will appear on the display. The lockout condition will reset once the

problem is corrected and the switch reset. Refer to “Vent Safety Switch Testing and Replacement”in this

Service Manual.
