Water HEater Selection
At Galactic Mechanical Services we believe in recommending quality American made products as a result we recommend Bradford White products. Below is an overview of some of the different models that we install. This page does not contain the full Bradford White line up. If you need something specific for your project we can work with you on finding equipment that aligns with your water heating needs and budget. Bradford White supplies a standard 6 year warranty on most equipment listed on this page 10 year warranties are available upon request.
For tanked water heaters there is a Tall/Short/Standard Configuration available for most units. This is why multiple First Hour Ratings and Uniform Energy Factors are listed for each tank. Be sure to enquire which unit may be the best fit for your application to get accurate efficiency details. There are several lines that are not included in these charts so if you are looking for a particular FHR or UEF that is not listed be sure to ask about alternatives.
For more information on Uniform Energy Factors and First Hour Ratings keep an eye out for an article in our blog section or for the time being you can read about them by clicking the link below
