1.6 Locating Pump-Mounted Water Heater  
with Respect to Storage Tank(s)  
For best results the Brute Magnum water heater  
should be located within 15 feet (4.6m) of the storage  
tank(s). The pump is sized for 30 feet (9.1m) of piping.  
Water heater pumps are sized for water hardness;  
7.6 to 17 grains per gallon for normal water, greater  
than 17 grains per gallon for hard water, and 1 to  
7.5 grains per gallon for soft water. If the appliance  
must be installed with longer piping runs, then larger  
diameter pipe or tubing may be able to be used, in  
some instances. Consult the factory for assistance.  
1.4 Dimensions  
The overall dimensions are 34.5" (88cm)  
wide, 65.75" (167cm) tall, 55" (140cm) deep. Other  
dimensions can be found in Figure 1.  
1.5 Locating the Appliance  
The Brute Magnum is for indoor installations  
only.  
The appliance should be located to provide  
clearances on all sides for maintenance and inspection.  
It should not be located in an area where leakage of  
any connections will result in damage to the area  
adjacent to the appliance or to lower floors of the  
structure.  
When such a location is not available, it is  
recommended that a suitable drain pan, adequately  
drained, be installed under the appliance.  
The appliance is design certified by CSA-  
International for installation on combustible flooring;  
in basements; in closets, utility rooms or alcoves.  
Brute Magnum Boilers or Water Heaters must  
never be installed on carpeting. The location for the  
1.7 Locating Pump-Mounted Boiler with  
Respect to Return/Supply Header  
Brute Magnum units must be piped in primary-  
secondary fashion because of the internal pump and  
mixing system.  
For the best results the Brute Magnum Boiler  
should be located within 15 feet (4.6m) of the supply  
and return headers. The pump is sized for 30 feet  
(9.1m) of piping, in most cases, enough for primary-  
secondary piping systems.  
If the appliance must be installed with longer piping  
runs, then larger diameter tubing may be able to be used,  
in some instances. Consult the factory for assistance.

2.1.2 Intake Combustion Air  
Section 2  
The combustion air can be taken through the  
wall, or through the roof. When taken from the wall,  
it must be taken from out-of-doors by means of the  
horizontal wall terminal, shown in Table 3. See Table 2  
to select the appropriate diameter air pipe. When taken  
from the roof, a field-supplied rain cap or an elbow  
arrangement must be used to prevent entry of rain  
water (see Figure 2).  
VENTING AND COMBUSTION AIR  
2.1 Combustion Air  
Brute Magnum boilers and water heaters must  
have provisions for combustion and ventilation  
air in accordance with the applicable requirements  
for Combustion Air Supply and Ventilation in the  
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223 1; or in Canada,  
the Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, CSA  
B149.1. All applicable provisions of local building  
codes must also be adhered to.  
A Brute Magnum unit can take combustion  
air from the space in which it is installed, or the  
combustion air can be ducted directly to the unit.  
Ventilation air must be provided in either case.  
2.1.1 Combustion Air From Room  
In the United States, the most common  
requirements specify that the space shall communicate  
with the outdoors in accordance with method 1 or 2,  
which follow. Where ducts are used, they shall be of  
the same cross-sectional area as the free area of the  
openings to which they connect.  
Method 1: Two permanent openings, one  
commencing within 12" (300mm) of the top and one  
commencing within 12" (300mm) of the bottom, of  
the enclosure shall be provided. The openings shall  
communicate directly, or by ducts, with the outdoors  
or spaces that freely communicate with the outdoors.  
When directly communicating with the outdoors, or  
when communicating to the outdoors through vertical  
ducts, each opening shall have a minimum free area of  
1 square inch per 4000 Btu/hr (550 square mm/kW) of  
total input rating of all equipment in the enclosure. When  
communicating to the outdoors through horizontal ducts,  
each opening shall have a minimum free area of not less  
than 1square inch per 2000 Btu/hr (1100 square mm/kW)  
of total input rating of all equipment in the enclosure.  
Method 2: One permanent opening, commencing  
within 12" (300mm) of the top of the enclosure, shall  
be permitted. The opening shall directly communicate  
with the outdoors or shall communicate through a  
vertical or horizontal duct to the outdoors or spaces  
that directly communicate with the outdoors and shall  
have a minimum free area of 1square inch per 3000  
Btu/hr (734 square mm/kW) of the total input rating of  
all equipment located in the enclosure. This opening  
must not be less than the sum of the areas of all vent  
connectors in the confined space.  
Figure 2. Combustion Air and Vent Through Roof.  
Use single-wall galvanized pipe for the  
combustion air intake (see Table 4), sized per Section  
1.8. Route the intake to the heater as directly as  
possible. Seal all joints with tape. Provide adequate  
hangers. The unit must not support the weight of the  
combustion air intake pipe. Maximum linear pipe  
length allowed is 50 feet (15.2m). Up to five elbows  
can be used with the 50 feet of pipe. Subtract 10  
allowable linear feet for every additional elbow used.  
The connection for the intake air pipe is in the  
back of the unit. Take the plate off the back to reveal  
the collar on the filter box. Run a bead of silicone  
around the collar and slide the pipe over the collar.  
Secure with sheet metal screws.

A condensate drain is built into the Brute  
Term  
Pipe  
Description  
Magnum. A pressure switch monitors the condensate  
drain pan, and will trip if the condensate level gets too  
high. This will prevent the Brute Magnum from firing  
if there is a blockage or overflow.  
Single-wall galvanized steel pipe, 24 gauge  
minimum (sized per section 1.9)  
Joint  
Sealing  
Permanent duct tape or aluminum tape  
Connect a clear plastic tube, minimum 3/8"  
diameter, between the drain connection and a floor  
drain (or condensate pump if a floor drain is not  
accessible).  
Insulation Not required, but recommended R5 insulation  
for cold installations (consult American Society  
of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air Conditioning  
Engineers (ASHRAE) handbook  
Table 4. Required Combustion Air Piping Material.  
Caution  
Condensate is mildly acidic, and may harm some  
floor drains and/or pipes, particularly those that  
are metal. Ensure that the drain, drainpipe,  
and anything that will come in contact with the  
condensate can withstand the acidity, or neutralize  
the condensate before disposal. Damage caused  
by failure to install a neutralizer kit or to  
adequately treat condensate will not be the  
manufacturer’s responsibility.  
In addition to air needed for combustion, air  
shall also be supplied for ventilation, including all air  
required for comfort and proper working conditions  
for personnel. The Brute Magnum loses less than 1  
percent of its input rating to the room, but other heat  
sources may be present.  
2.2 Venting  
The Brute Magnum is a Category IV appliance  
and must be installed with a stainless steel venting  
system that complies with the UL 1738 Standard  
(see Table 5). It must be installed per this installation  
manual and the venting system manufacturer’s  
Installation Instructions. The unit’s vent can terminate  
through the roof, or through an outside wall. It can be  
installed through walls that are from 3" (7.6cm) to 12"  
(30cm) in thickness.  
A neutralizer kit is available from Bradford  
White. The kit includes a condensate pump.  
The condensate tray must be primed before starting  
the unit. Fill the tray with water through the exhaust  
vent connection on the back of the unit. Continue  
filling until water flows out of the condensate drain  
port. This prevents the flue gases from escaping through  
the condensate drain. The condensate drain must be  
installed so as to prevent accumulation of condensate.  
When a condensate pump is not used, the tubing must  
continuously slope downward (except for the trap loop)  
toward the drain with no spiraling.  
See Table 2 to select the appropriate vent pipe  
diameter. The vent pipe must be pitch upward, toward  
the vent terminal, so that condensate will run back to  
the Brute Magnum, to drain. Route the vent pipe to  
the heater as directly as possible. Seal all joints and  
provide adequate hangers as required in the venting  
system manufacturer’s Installation Instructions.  
Horizontal portions of the venting system must be  
supported to prevent sagging and may not have any  
low sections that could trap condensate. The unit must  
not support the weight of the vent pipe. Horizontal  
runs must slope upwards not less than ¼ inch per  
foot (21mm/m) from the unit to the vent terminal. Up  
to five elbows can be used with the 50 feet (15.2m)  
of pipe. Subtract 10 allowable linear feet for every  
additional elbow used.  
Consult local codes for disposal method.

IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT COMMON VENTING:  
2.3 Locating Vent & Combustion Air  
Terminals  
2.3.1 Horizontal Vent Terminal  
A single vent that is shared by multiple Brute Magnum  
units MUST be engineered by a competent venting  
specialist, and involves the selection of draft inducing  
equipment, hardware and controls to properly  
balance flue gas pressures. Do not common vent  
Brute Magnum units unless the vent system  
meets this requirement. Brute Magnum units are  
never permitted to share a vent with Category I  
appliances.  
The appropriate side wall vent hood must be  
used, and is listed in the installation and operation  
manual. The terminal provides a means of installing  
the vent piping through the building wall, and must  
be located in accordance with ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54  
and applicable local codes. In Canada, the installation  
must be in accordance with CSA B149.1 or .2 and  
local applicable codes. Consider the following when  
installing the terminal:

2.4 Common Vent Test — Boilers  
NOTE: This section does not describe a method for  
common venting Brute Magnum units. It describes  
what must be done when a unit is removed from a  
common vent system. Brute Magnum units require  
special vent systems and fan for common vent.  
Contact the factory if you have questions about  
common venting Brute Magnum units.  
Contact factory with questions about venting  
system installation.  
When an existing boiler is removed from a  
common venting system, the common venting system  
is likely to be too large for proper venting of the  
appliances remaining connected to it.

and guidelines in the National Fuel Gas Code,  
ANSI Z223.1 NFPA 54 and/or CSA B149.1,  
Installation Codes.  
1. Seal any unused openings in the common venting  
system.  
2. Visually inspect the venting system for proper  
size and horizontal pitch and determine there is  
no blockage or restriction, leakage, corrosion and  
other deficiencies which could cause an unsafe  
condition.  
3. Insofar as it is practical, close all building doors  
and windows and all doors between the space in  
which the appliances remaining connected to the  
common venting system are located and other  
spaces of the building. Turn on clothes dryers  
and any appliance not connected to the common  
venting system. Turn on any exhaust fans, such  
as range hoods and bathroom exhausts, so they  
will operate at maximum speed. Do not operate a  
summer exhaust fan. Close fireplace dampers.  
4. Place in operation the appliance being inspected.  
Follow the lighting instructions. Adjust thermostat  
so appliance will operate continuously.  
Section 3  
GAS SUPPLY AND PIPING  
3.1 Gas Supply and Piping  
Gas piping should be supported by suitable  
hangers or floor stands, not the appliance.  
Review the following instructions before  
proceeding with the installation.  
1. Verify that the appliance is fitted for the  
proper type of gas by checking the rating plate.  
Appliances are normally equipped to operate at  
elevations up to 2000 feet (610m). However,  
the appliance will function properly without the  
use of high altitude modification at elevations  
up to 10,000 feet (3050 m).  
2. The maximum inlet gas pressure must not  
exceed 13" W.C. (3.2kPa). The minimum  
inlet natural gas pressure is 4" W.C. (1.0kPa)  
and minimum inlet propane gas pressure is 6"  
(1.5kPa).  
3. Refer to Table 6, size supply.  
4. Run gas supply line in accordance with all  
applicable codes.  
5. Test for spillage at the draft hood relief opening  
after 5 minutes of main burner operation. Use  
the flame of a match or candle, or smoke from a  
cigarette, cigar or pipe.  
6. After it has been determined that each appliance  
remaining connected to the common venting  
system properly vents when tested as outlined  
above, return doors, windows, exhaust fans,  
fireplace dampers and any other gas burning  
appliance to their previous conditions of use.  
7. Any improper operation of the common venting  
system should be corrected so that the installation  
conforms to the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI  
Z223.1/NFPA 54 and/or CSA B149.1, Installation  
Codes. When resizing any portion of the common  
venting system, the common venting system  
should be resized to approach the minimum size  
Note: If you have a boiler/water heater with  
a normally open vent valve, install a vent line  
from the vent valve to an outside location  
as required by your installation code or IRI  
requirement. Do not remove 3/4 inch pipe  
plug from the vent valve if venting from the  
normally open vent valve is not required by  
your installation code.  
5. Locate and install manual shutoff valves in  
accordance with state and local requirements.  
6. A sediment trap must be provided upstream of  
the gas controls.

to a drain or in a manner to prevent injury in the event  
of pressure relief. Install an air purger, an air vent,  
a diaphragm-type expansion tank, and a hydronic  
flow check in the system supply loop. Minimum fill  
pressure must be 12psig (82.7kPa). Install shutoff  
valves where required by code.  
8. The appliance and its individual shutoff valve  
must be disconnected from the gas supply piping  
during any pressure testing of that system at test  
pressures in excess of 1/2 PSIG (3.45kpa).  
9. The unit must be isolated from the gas supply  
system by closing its individual manual shutoff  
valve during any pressure testing of the gas  
supply piping system at test pressures equal to or  
less than 1/2 PSIG (3.45kpa).  
Suggested piping diagrams are shown in Figures  
4, 5, and 6. These diagrams are meant only as a guide.  
Components required by local codes must be properly  
installed. The Brute Magnum boiler’s efficiency  
is higher with lower return water temperatures.  
Therefore, to get the most of low return temperature  
with multiple boilers, pipe as shown in Figure 4.  
The Brute Magnum boiler has an internal mixing  
system that ensures that the condensation does not  
occur on the finned copper heat exchanger, with  
boiler return temperature down to 50°F (10°C). This  
system, that consists of automatically actuated  
and linked valves, is set up at the factory, and is  
non-adjustable. The return water goes through the  
stainless steel heat exchanger, then to the mixing  
system (see Figure 7).  
10. The appliance and its gas connection must be  
leak tested before placing it in operation.  
11. Purge all air from gas lines.  
WARNING  
Open flame can cause gas to ignite and result in  
property damage, severe injury, or loss of life.  
NOTE: The Brute Magnum appliance and all other  
gas appliances sharing the gas supply line must be  
firing at maximum capacity to properly measure the  
inlet supply pressure. The pressure can be measured  
at the supply pressure port on the gas valve. Low  
gas pressure could be an indication of an undersized  
gas meter, undersized gas supply lines and/or an  
obstructed gas supply line. A bleed line from the  
diaphragm-type automatic valve shall be vented per  
local code requirements. Brute Magnum units are  
equipped with low and high gas pressure switches that  
are integrally vent limited. These types of devices do  
not require venting to atmosphere.  
If the water at the inlet of the copper heat  
exchanger is less than 140°F (60°C), water from the  
outlet of the copper heat exchanger will be directed  
back to the inlet of the copper heat exchanger, and will  
mix to bring the inlet water up to 140°F (60°C). Once  
through the copper heat exchanger, the water picks up  
another 20-25°F (11-14°C) (when at high fire), and  
it leaves the boiler at 160-165°F (71-74°C). This hot  
water is then sent to the system.  
If the water at the inlet of the copper heat exchanger  
is 140°F (60°C), or higher, the water will be allowed to  
flow through the copper heat exchanger and directly to the  
outlet of the Brute Magnum, and there will be a 20-25°F  
(11-14°C) temperature rise between the inlet and outlet of  
the unit, when the unit is at high fire.  
The pump in the boiler is sized for the boiler’s  
heat exchangers, the internal mixing system, and 30  
feet of full-sized piping, with a normal number of  
fittings taken into consideration. The piping must be  
primary/secondary, ensuring that the boiler’s pump is  
only used for the boiler, and that the system pump(s)  
do not interfere with the Brute Magnum pump or  
mixing system.  
Section 4A  
WATER CONNECTIONS —  
BRUTE MAGNUM BOILER  
4A.1 Heating System Piping:  
Hot Supply Connections — Boiler  
The minimum inlet water temperature for the  
Brute Magnum is 50°F (10°C) to avoid condensing  
on the copper coils.  
NOTE: This appliance must be installed in a closed  
pressure system with a minimum of 12 psi (82.7kPa)  
static pressure at the boiler.  
Hot water piping should be supported by suitable  
hangers or floor stands. Do not support piping with  
this appliance. Due to expansion and contraction of  
copper pipe, consideration should be given to the type  
of hangers used. Rigid hangers may transmit noise  
through the system resulting from the piping sliding in  
the hangers. It is recommended that padding be used  
when rigid hangers are installed. Maintain 1" (2.5cm)  
clearance to combustibles for hot water pipes.  
4A.2 Cold Water Make-Up — Boiler  
1. Connect the cold water supply to the inlet  
connection of an automatic fill valve.  
2. Install a suitable back flow preventer between the  
automatic fill valve and the cold water supply.  
3. Install shut off valves where required.  
NOTE: The boiler, when used in connection with a  
refrigeration system, must be installed so the chilled

medium is piped in parallel with the boiler with  
appropriate valves to prevent the chilled medium from  
entering the boiler.  
The boiler piping system of a hot water heating  
boiler connected to heating coils located in air  
handling appliances where they may be exposed to  
refrigerated air circulation must be equipped with flow  
control valves or other automatic means to prevent  
gravity circulation of the boiler water during the  
cooling cycle.  
A boiler installed above radiation level, or as  
required by the authority having jurisdiction, must be  
provided with a low water cutoff device either as a part  
of the boiler or at the time of boiler installation.

WATER CONNECTIONS —  
BRUTE MAGNUM WATER HEATER  
4B.1 Water System Piping —  
Water Heater  
Hot water piping should be supported by  
suitable hangers or floor stands. Do not support piping  
with this appliance. Due to expansion and contraction  
of copper pipe, consideration should be given to the  
type of hangers used. Rigid hangers may transmit  
noise through the system resulting from the piping  
sliding in the hangers. It is recommended that padding  
be used when rigid hangers are installed.  
4A.3 Freeze Protection – Boiler  
The Brute Magnum can be used with several  
different types of readily available storage tanks. A  
pump draws water from the storage tank and pumps  
the water through the heater and back into the tank.  
Pump-mounted units have a circulating pump built  
into the water heater.  
Pipe the outlet from the heater’s relief valve  
such that any discharge from the relief valve will be  
conducted to a suitable place for disposal when relief  
occurs. Do not reduce line size or install any valves in  
this line. The line must be installed to allow complete  
drainage of both the valve and the line.  
Suggested piping diagrams are shown in Figures  
8, 9, 10, and 11. These diagrams are meant only as a  
guide. Components required by local codes must be  
properly installed.  
The minimum inlet water temperature for the  
Brute Magnum is 50°F (10°C) to avoid condensing  
on the copper coils.  
Brute Magnum units are not designed to be  
placed outdoors, due to the potential for condensate to  
freeze in the unit.  
Proper precautions for freeze protection are  
recommended for boiler installations in areas where  
the danger of freezing exists.  
Power outage, interruption of gas supply, failure  
of system components, activation of safety devices,  
etc., may prevent a boiler from firing. Any time a  
boiler is subjected to freezing conditions, and the  
boiler is not able to fire, and/or the water is not able  
to circulate, there is a risk of freezing in the boiler  
or in the pipes in the system. When water freezes,  
it expands. This can result in bursting of pipes in the  
system, or damage to the boiler, which could result in  
leaking or flooding conditions.  
Do not use automotive anti-freeze. Maintaining  
a mixture of minimum 50% water and maximum  
50% properly inhibited HVAC glycol, which contains  
an antifoamant, is the preferred method of freeze  
protection for Brute Magnum boilers. The percentage  
of glycol used in the Brute Magnum boiler must  
not exceed 50%. Typically, this mixture will  
serve as burst protection for temperatures down to  
approximately –35°F (-30°C).  
IMPORTANT NOTES: Different glycol products  
may provide varying degrees of protection. Glycol  
products must be maintained properly in a heating  
system, or they may become ineffective. Consult  
the glycol specifications, or the glycol manufacturer,  
for information about specific products, maintenance  
of solutions, and set up according to your particular  
conditions.  
4B.2 Hot Water Supply Piping —  
Water Heater  
Follow the tank manufacturer’s guidelines for  
completion of the hot water system connections.  
NOTE: A listed temperature and pressure relief  
valve listed as complying with the Standard for  
Relief Valves and Automatic Gas Shutoff Devices  
for Hot Water Supply Systems, 1). ANSI Z21.22  
latest edition, or 2). CSA 4.4, of suitable discharge  
capacity must be installed in the separate storage  
tank system.  
If the Brute Magnum water heater is installed in  
a closed water supply system, such as one having a  
backflow preventer in the cold water supply line, the  
relief valve may discharge periodically, due to thermal  
expansion. Means (such as a properly-sized expansion  
tank) shall be provided to control thermal expansion.  
Contact the water supplier or local plumbing inspector  
on how to control this situation.  
For installations where temperatures are  
expected to fall below 15°F inside the boiler cabinet,  
the actuating gas valve must be equipped with a gas  
valve heater, part number R2010100. Note that some  
gas trains such as the IRI option may have double  
actuators, and may require 2 gas valve heaters.

nickel tubes are available. Contact a Bradford White  
Representative if you have questions or concerns about  
water quality.  
The Brute Magnum water heater has an internal  
mixing system that ensures that the condensation does  
not occur on the finned copper heat exchanger, with  
heater return temperature down to 50°F (10°C). This  
system, that consists of automatically actuated  
and linked valves, is set up at the factory, and is  
non-adjustable. The return water goes through the  
stainless steel heat exchanger, then to the mixing  
system. (see Figure 7).  
4B.3 Water Flow Requirements —  
Water Heater  
In a water heating application (an open system),  
new water is constantly being introduced. With the  
new water comes a fresh supply of minerals that can  
be deposited on the unit’s heat exchanger. This is  
commonly known as scaling. The amount of minerals  
will depend upon the hardness of the water. Water can  
also be aggressive, and can erode metals, including  
copper, if the water is moved too quickly. Pump sizing  
for the Brute Magnum water heater is based upon the  
hardness of the water. The water flow is kept high  
enough to prevent scaling, but low enough to prevent

If the water at the inlet of the copper heat  
exchanger is less than 140°F (60°C), water from the  
outlet of the copper heat exchanger will be directed  
back to the inlet of the copper heat exchanger, and will  
mix to bring the inlet water up to 140°F (60°C). Once  
through the copper heat exchanger, the water picks up  
another 20-25°F (11-14°C) (when at high fire), and  
it leaves the boiler at 160-165°F (71-74°C). This hot  
water is then sent to the system.

heat exchangers, the internal mixing system, and 30  
feet of full-sized piping, with a normal number of  
fittings taken into consideration.  
The minimum inlet water temperature for the

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS  
WARNING  
The appliance must be electrically grounded in  
accordance with the requirements of the authority  
having jurisdiction or, in the absence of such  
requirements, with the latest edition of the National  
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, in the U.S. and  
with latest edition of CSA C22.1 Canadian Electrical  
Code, Part 1, in Canada. Do not rely on the gas  
or water piping to ground the metal parts of the  
boiler. Plastic pipe or dielectric unions may isolate  
the boiler electrically. Service and maintenance  
personnel, who work on or around the boiler, may  
be standing on wet floors and could be electrocuted  
by an ungrounded boiler. Electrocution can result in  
severe injury or death.

measures temperature on the boiler inlet, sensing  
return water temperature. Set the temperature control  
for the desired return temperature. If the return water  
temperature is less than 140°F (60°C), internal mixing  
will keep the outlet temperature at 160-165°F (71-  
74°C). If the return temperature is 140°F (60°C) or  
higher, the outlet temperature of the boiler will be the  
return temperature plus 20-25°F (11-14°C) when the  
Brute Magnum is at high firing rate.  
The manual reset high limit is on the outlet of  
the Brute Magnum. Set the manual reset high limit at  
about 20°F (11°C) higher than the highest expected  
outlet temperature, to avoid nuisance lockouts.  
All electrical connections are made in the field  
wiring box that is located inside the appliance.  
NOTE: All internal electrical components have been  
prewired. No attempt should be made to connect  
electrical wires to any other location except the wiring  
box.  
Wiring connections are shown in Figures 17  
through24.  
5.1 Main Power  
Connect a properly sized and fused, 120-volt  
supply to the main power switch (hot leg is connected  
directly to switch). Neutral leg is connected directly to  
the white wire. Ground wire can be connected to the  
grounding screw in the box or on the switch.  
5.4  
Temperature Control – Water Heater  
5.4.1 Remote Water Heater  
5.2 Pump Connections  
Temperature Control  
The pump time delay relay will call the pump  
to be energized upon a call for heat, and will keep the  
pump energized for a delay period after the call for  
heat has ended. The delay period is adjustable from  
0.1 to 10 minutes.  
The Brute Magnum water heater can be used  
with a field-supplied tank aquastat, sequencing control,  
or other temperature control device, which will call  
the unit for heat when the temperature goes below the  
controller’s setpoint. For the most efficient setting, set  
the tank temperature at the lowest possible setting for  
adequate hot water in the application.  
Brute Magnum units have pumps that are wired  
at the factory to the pump time delay system. It is  
necessary to wire the pump to a separate 115V or  
230V single phase circuit, per the wiring diagrams in  
Figures 17 through 20.  
Caution  
If the tank temperature control is set too high, a

temperature is less than 140°F (60°C), internal mixing  
will keep the outlet temperature at 160-165°F (71-  
74°C), and this will mix with the tank temperature  
to maintain a lower temperature in the tank. If the  
return temperature is 140°F (60°C) or higher, the  
outlet temperature of the heater will be the return  
temperature plus 20-25°F (11-14°C) when the Brute  
Magnum is at high firing rate.  
The manual reset high limit is on the outlet of  
the Brute Magnum. Set the manual reset high limit at  
about 20°F (11°C) higher than the highest expected  
outlet temperature, to avoid nuisance lockouts  
The offset determines where the throttling range  
begins.  
The throttling range is the temperature range  
through which the unit will modulate from minimum  
to maximum firing rate.  
Important Note: These control parameters work  
together. Therefore, setting one parameter may have  
an affect on another. Figures 14, 15 and 16 show the  
relationships between these settings. Figure 14 follows  
the examples that are shown in the following sections,  
and Figures 15 and 16 are examples of how the  
parameters can interfere with each other.  
5.4.2 Internal Water Heater  
5.5.1 Temperature Setpoint  
Temperature Control  
The temperature setpoint is the point at which the  
temperature control relay will be de-energized and the  
unit’s call for heat will end. The temperature setpoint  
is adjusted with the setpoint dial on the A350 control  
(see Figure 13). The temperature control’s sensor is in  
the inlet of the unit.  
When an external control is not used, the  
circulator between the heater and the storage tank  
must run continuously, so that the heater’s temperature  
control can detect and control the water temperature  
in the storage tank. The Brute Magnum water  
heater’s temperature control is adjusted to its lowest  
temperature position when shipped from the factory.  
This is the preferred starting point for setting the  
temperature control.  
The Brute Magnum temperature control measures  
temperature on the heater inlet, sensing return water  
temperature. If the return water temperature is less  
than 140°F (60°C), internal mixing will keep the outlet  
temperature at 160-165°F (71-74°C), and this will  
mix with the tank temperature to maintain a lower  
temperature in the tank. If the return temperature is  
140°F (60°C) or higher, the outlet temperature of the  
heater will be the return temperature plus 20-25°F (11-  
14°C) when the Brute Magnum is at high firing rate.  
The manual reset high limit is on the outlet of  
the Brute Magnum. Set the manual reset high limit at  
about 20°F (11°C) higher than the highest expected  
outlet temperature, to avoid nuisance lockouts.  
Caution  
Note: Jumper must be in “Reverse Acting” mode, or unit will not  
operate properly.  
Should overheating occur or the gas supply fail to  
shut off, turn off the manual gas control valve to the  
appliance.  
Figure 13. Proportional Control.  
5.5.2 Differential Setting  
5.5 Temperature Control Features  
The Brute Magnum temperature control is  
versatile and will allow the user to better match the  
modulating control to the application. Settings that  
can be changed are temperature setpoint, differential,  
offset, throttling range, and minimum output.  
The temperature setpoint is the setting at which  
the unit will shut off, having satisfied the controller’s  
call for heat.  
The differential is the difference in temperature  
settings when the temperature control’s relay is  
energized and de-energized. For instance, if the  
temperature setpoint is 120°F (49°C) and the  
differential is 20°F (11°C), the temperature control  
will call the unit to energize at 100°F (38°C). (The  
differential is the setpoint minus the differential  
setting) The call for heat will end when the unit  
reaches its setpoint of 120°F (49°C). The Brute  
Magnum differential is adjustable from 1°F to 30°F  
(1°C to 17°C). In general, the differential setting for a  
water heater system will be low, so that when a storage

tank is drawing down, the heater will react to sustain  
a minimum tank temperature. Boilers generally have  
higher differentials than water heaters, to minimize  
short cycling (see throttling range). The differential  
is set by removing the cover of the A350 control  
and adjusting the potentiometer marked “DIFF” (see  
Figure 13).  
through which the unit will modulate. This will tell  
the controller how fast to respond to a change in  
temperature. A small throttling range keeps the unit  
in high fire more, and quickens the response of the  
system. A larger throttling range allows the Brute  
Magnum to spread its modulating range over a larger  
temperature range.  
Example, Imperial units: Using a temperature  
setpoint of 120°F, with a 20°F differential, a 5°F  
offset, and a throttling range of 10°F, the unit will  
come on at 100°F and shut off at 120°F. The offset  
will set the top of the throttling range 5°F under the  
setpoint, which is 115°F in this example. Therefore,  
the throttling range will cause the Brute Magnum to  
modulate between 25% and 100% of full fire between  
115°F and 105°F. Between 115°F and 120°F, the unit  
will remain at low fire. Between 100°F and 105°F, the  
unit will be at full fire.  
5.5.3 Offset  
The offset determines the temperature below the  
controller’s setpoint where the throttling range begins.  
It offsets the throttling range.  
For instance, if the setpoint is 120°F (49°C) and  
the offset is 5°F (3°C), then the unit’s throttling range  
will begin at 115°F (46°C). Between 115°F (46°C) and  
120°F (49°C), the Brute Magnum will be in low fire.  
The offset can be adjusted between 0°F and 30°F  
(0°C and 17°C) by removing the cover of the S350P  
control and adjusting the Offset dial (see Figure 14).  
Example, Metric units: Using a temperature  
setpoint of 49°C, with a 11°C differential, a 3°C offset,  
and a throttling range of 5°C, the unit will come on at  
38°C and shut off at 49°C. The offset will set the top  
of the throttling range 3°C under the setpoint, which is  
46°C in this example. Therefore, the throttling range  
will cause the Brute Magnum to modulate between  
5.5.4 Throttling Range  
The throttling range allows the Brute Magnum  
to match the BTU demands of varying systems, by  
allowing the user to choose the temperature range

25% and 100% of full fire between 46°C and 49°C.  
Between 46°C and 49°C, the unit will remain at low  
fire. Between 38°C and 41°C, the unit will be at full  
fire.  
5.5.6 Integration Constant  
The proportional control used on the Brute  
Magnum has internal circuitry that helps to minimize  
overshoot that can sometimes be associated with  
proportional plus integral (PI) controls. There  
are three field-selectable integration constants  
(slow, medium and fast), and an off position on the  
proportional control, which are selected with the  
dipswitches on the control (see Figure 14). In most  
cases, this setting will not need to be changed  
Off: Switch 1 to ON position and all others to  
OFF. Setting the control to the “Off” position puts the  
control into proportional only operation. This is not a  
recommended setting for the Brute Magnum.  
Slow: Switch 2 to ON position and all others  
to OFF. This is the slowest integration constant. It  
allows the Brute Magnum the most time to reach its  
setpoint. In most cases, this is too slow for Brute  
Magnum installations.  
The throttling range is adjustable between 2°F  
and 30°F (1°C to 17°C). The range can be set by  
removing the cover of the S350P control and adjusting  
the “THROT RANGE” dial (see Figure 14).  
5.5.5 Minimum Output Setting  
The minimum output setting of the controller is  
0% of full fire. However, the minimum output of the  
Brute Magnum is limited to 25% of full fire by the  
fan speed controller, to ensure proper operation of the  
Brute Magnum. If a minimum desired output is higher  
than 25%, the setting can be adjusted up by removing  
the cover of the S350P control and adjusting the Min  
Output dial (see Figure 14). Turning the dial clockwise  
increases the minimum output. In most cases, this  
setting should be left as shipped from the factory.  
Medium: Switch 3 to ON position and all others  
to OFF. The integration constant is set to “Medium”  
at the factory, and in most cases, will not need to be

Brute Magnum installations.  
another 20-25°F (11-14°C) (when at high fire), and  
it leaves the boiler at 160-165°F (71-74°C). This hot  
water is then sent to the system.  
Fast: Switch 4 to ON position and all others  
to OFF. If the rate of system recovery to setpoint is  
sluggish with the control set to medium, the “Fast”  
setting may be an improvement. The “Fast” setting  
will only be used when the rate of change at the sensor  
is very rapid. In most cases, this setting is too fast for  
the Brute Magnum.  
If the water at the inlet of the copper heat  
exchanger is 140°F (60°C), or higher, the water will be  
allowed to flow through the copper heat exchanger and  
directly to the outlet of the Brute Magnum, and there  
will be a 20-25°F (11-14°C) temperature rise between  
the inlet and outlet of the unit, when the unit is at high  
fire.  
The by-pass mixing control displays the mixed  
water temperature, which is the temperature of the  
water that is sent to the copper heat exchanger. This  
temperature setting is locked and cannot be changed in  
the field.  
5.6 Mixing System and Control  
The Brute Magnum has an internal mixing  
system that ensures that the condensation does not  
occur on the finned copper heat exchanger, with  
boiler return temperature down to 70°F (21°C). This  
system, that consists of automatically actuated  
and linked valves, is set up at the factory, and is  
non-adjustable. The return water goes through the  
stainless steel heat exchanger, then to the mixing  
system (see Figure 7).  
By pressing and holding the two buttons on the  
left of the mixing control for at least 3 seconds, the  
user will access two available menus.  
The first menu allows selection of the temperature  
units. Pressing the two left buttons for at least 3 seconds  
displays “Uni” on the screen (for units). Then “°F” is  
displayed. Press the up or down arrow on the control to  
change from °F to °C, or °C to °F. When the preferred  
selection is displayed, press the enter (bottom left) button.  
The control will then display “Add” for the second  
menu. If no more buttons are pushed, the control will  
automatically return to the temperature display mode.  
If the water at the inlet of the copper heat  
exchanger is less than 140°F (60°C), water from the  
outlet of the copper heat exchanger will be directed  
back to the inlet of the copper heat exchanger, and will  
mix to bring the inlet water up to 140°F (60°C). Once  
through the copper heat exchanger, the water picks up

The second menu “Add” has to do with the N2  
located to the right of, and behind the front panel. The  
terminal strip is labeled “0-10VDC +” and 0-10VDC

from the controller.  
address. Pressing enter when “Add” is displayed will  
display “255”, which stands for 255 unique addresses.  
The up and down arrows change this value, and enter  
saves the value if it is changed.  
Changing the “Add” value will have no affect  
on the Brute Magnum, unless a communications  
card as been built onto the unit. If a Brute  
Magnum unit has been ordered with an optional  
communications card, more menus will be active,  
and the unit will come with separate instructions.  
The Brute Magnum unit will modulate between  
2.23V and 10V (for 25% and 100%, respectively).  
Anything less than 2.23 volts will result in 25% of full  
fire.  
For the external control to modulate the Brute  
Magnum, the selector switch on the front panel must  
be in the “External Control” position.  
Important Note: DO NOT MAKE/BREAK Brute  
Magnum LINE VOLTAGE TO SIGNAL CALL FOR  
HEAT. A “call for heat / end call for heat” MUST be  
connected to the field interlock terminals. The Brute  
Magnum does not recognize 0 volts as a signal to shut  
off. If the call for heat is not connected between the  
field interlock terminals, the Brute Magnum will remain  
in low fire when it sees 0 volts as a modulating signal.  
5.7 External Control Connections  
Brute Magnum units are built with a selector  
switch and a terminal strip to allow the Brute Magnum  
to receive a  
0-10VDC signal from an  
external controller (such as a building automation  
system or multiple boiler control).  
When the selector switch is in the “Brute  
Magnum Control” position, the Brute Magnum will be  
modulated by the unit’s factory-mounted modulating  
control.  
Caution  
When the switch is in the “External Control”  
position, the unit look for a 0-10VDC signal from an  
external (field-supplied) controller.  
Brute Magnum supply voltage must not be  
disengaged, except for service or isolation, or  
unless otherwise instructed by procedures outlined  
in this manual. To signal a call for heat, use the 24V  
field-interlock, as shown in the wiring diagram(s).  
To interlock the external boiler control with  
the Brute Magnum, the call for heat signal MUST  
be connected to the field interlock terminal strip on  
the Brute Magnum (shown in Figure 29). Be sure to  
remove the factory-installed jumper between the field  
interlock terminals. The 0-10VDC modulating signal  
MUST be connected to external control terminal strip,  
Some Brute Magnum components are designed  
to have constant voltage during normal operation.  
If Brute Magnum supply voltage is toggled as a  
call for heat signal, premature failure of these  
components may result.

6.2 Operating the Burner and Set Up  
The Brute Magnum modulating appliance utilizes  
an advanced, state-of-the-art design. The setup must be  
checked before the unit is put in operation. Problems  
such as failure to start, rough ignition, strong exhaust  
odors, etc. can be due to improper setup. Damage to  
the boiler resulting from improper setup is not covered  
by the limited warranty.  
10. Recheck the water level in the expansion tank. If  
the water level exceeds ¼ of the volume of the  
expansion tank, open the tank drain, and drain to  
that level.  
11. Shut down the entire system and vent all  
radiation units and high points in the system  
piping, as described in Step 4.  
12. Close make-up water valve and check strainer in  
pressure reducing valve for sediment or debris  
from the make-up water line. Reopen make-up  
water valve.  
13. Check gauge for correct water pressure and also  
check water level in the system. If the height  
indicated above the boiler insures that water is at  
the highest point in the circulating loop, then the  
system is ready for operation.  
REQUIRED TOOLS:

7.2.16 Heat Exchanger Coils  
Black carbon soot buildup on the external  
surfaces of the copper heat exchanger is caused by  
one or more of the following; incomplete combustion,  
combustion air problems, venting problems and heater  
short cycling. Soot buildup or other debris on the heat  
exchanger may restrict the flue passages.  
7.2.12 Ignitor / Flame Sensor Assembly  
The ignitor is a 110v “hot surface” type. It  
is energized whenever there is a call for heat and  
switched off when ignition is established and the flame  
has been sensed. Ignitors with an ohms resistance over  
80 ohms (tested after the ignitor has been allowed  
to cool to room temperature) should be replaced. To  
replace the ignitor, shut off the 120-volt power to the  
appliance, disconnect the Molex connector, remove  
the two mounting screws on the ignitor flange, and  
pull the ignitor out. Always install a new ignitor gasket

Black carbon soot buildup on a dirty heat exchanger  
can be ignited by a random spark or flame. To  
prevent this from happening, dampen the soot  
deposits with a wet brush or fine water spray before  
servicing the heat exchanger.  
Ignitor gets hot and can cause burns or injury.  
7.2.13 Transformers  
There are various transformers used on the Brute  
Magnum units. Be sure to replace the transformers  
with factory parts. These transformers are not capable  
of supplying control voltage for external devices such  
as zone valves, which must have their own separate  
power supply. Should a transformer need replacing,  
shut off the 120-volt power. Unplug the transformer  
wires, remove the mounting screws and remove the  
transformer. Replace transformer in the reverse order.  
1. Disconnect the electrical supply to the unit.  
2. Turn off the gas supply by closing the manual gas  
valve on the heater.  
3. Disconnect and remove the wires, conduit and  
sensors from all components that are attached to  
the inlet/outlet header.  
4. Isolate the heat exchanger from the water supply.  
5. Drain the heat exchanger from the drain located  
on the bottom of the heat exchanger.  
6. Disconnect the header flanges from the inlet and  
outlet.  
7. Remove the heat exchanger from the unit.  
NOTE: The heat exchangers are heavy and may  
require two people to remove to avoid personal  
injury.  
7.2.14 Blower  
The combustion air blower is a high-pressure  
centrifugal blower with a variable speed motor. The  
speed of the motor is determined by the control logic,  
and the 120-volt current remains on to the blower at all  
times. If a blower change is required, turn off the 120-  
volt power and gas supply to the unit. Take the front

8. Clean the heat exchanger: A light accumulation  
of soot or corrosion on the outside of the heat  
exchanger can be easily removed. Use a wire  
brush to remove loose soot and scale from the  
heat exchanger. Do not use water or compressed  
air for cleaning.  
9. NOTE: While the heat exchanger is out of the  
unit, inspect the firewall refractory insulation  
blocks for cracks, wear and breakage. Replace if  
necessary.  
10. Inspect the inside of the copper tubes for scale  
buildup. Scale can build up on the inner surface  
of the heat exchanger tubes, which can restrict  
water flow. If the tubes show signs of scaling,  
clean the internal surface. Bradford White offers  
a tube cleaning kit, part number R2000700.  
11. Reassemble in the reverse order.  
shutoff valve and 120V power and check appliance  
operation and tightness of gas valve connections.  
7.2.19 Gas Pressure Switches  
The high and low gas pressure switches are 24V  
manual reset switches that act to cut power to the gas  
valves if the gas pressure is too low or too high for  
proper operation. The gas pressure switches used are  
integrally vent limited, and do not require venting to  
atmosphere. To remove a switch, remove the screw  
on the plastic housing and pull the clear cover off.  
Disconnect the two wires from the screw terminals.  
Twist the switch off the pipe nipple. Reassemble in  
reverse order. For natural gas, set the low gas pressure  
switch to 3" w.c. For propane, set the low gas pressure  
switch to 5" w.c. For natural and propane, set the high  
gas pressure switch to 14".  
If heat exchanger removal is necessary, consult  
the factory for instructions.  
NOTE: The Warranty does not cover damage  
caused by lack of required maintenance, lack of  
water flow, or improper operating practices.  
The condensing (stainless steel) heat exchanger  
is not in the firing chamber, so it will not experience  
sooting. If there is fouling on the stainless steel heat  
exchanger, or if it needs to be changed, contact the  
factory.  
Section 8  
TROUBLESHOOTING  
8.1 Sequence of Operation  
The Brute Magnum appliance is a cold start  
appliance that should start only on a call for heat from  
a tank aquastat, room thermostat, zone valve end  
switch or other space temperature control device.  
1. Upon a call for heat,  
7.2.17 Normally Open Vent Valve  
Some Brute Magnum models provide a  
normally open vent valve for installations with IRI  
code requirements. The valve opens when power is  
removed from the safety valves. And the valve closes  
when the safety valves are powered. See Section 3.1  
item #4 for installation instructions.  
(a) The internal pump will start.  
(b) The blower will begin a 15 second pre-  
purge.  
2. Following the prepurge cycle the hot surface  
ignitor will heat and will begin a 7 second trial  
for ignition. The unit is allowed three attempts  
for ignition.  
3. The gas valve will then be energized and low-  
fire (50% of full fire) ignition will occur. The  
unit will remain in a low-fire start-up period for 15  
seconds.  
7.2.18 Motorized Safety Valve  
Control packs B and E have an additional  
motorized safety valve. This valve is powered open  
at the same time as the safety valve. To remove the  
valve actuator, shut off the 120V power and the gas  
shutoff valve. Remove the right side, or front panel.  
Disconnect the 120V wires from the actuator. Remove  
the valve actuator by taking out the four screws, and  
pulling the actuator out. Re-install in reverse order.  
Turn on gas shutoff valve and 120V power and  
check appliance operation and tightness of gas valve  
connections.  
4. After the low-fire start time is over, the unit  
will be in normal operation firing rate and will  
modulate based on the heating load via the  
temperature controller settings and readings.  
5. The mixing system control will sense the water  
temperature entering the copper heat exchanger,  
and will change the positions of the mixing  
valves to divert enough hot water from the  
copper heat exchanger outlet back to its inlet  
to keep the inlet at a minimum 140°F (60°C).  
Therefore, when the return water temperature is  
140°F (60°C) or lower, the outlet temperature  
will be 160-165°F (71-74°C). With return  
temperatures greater than 140°F (60°C), the  
temperature rise across the Brute Magnum is 20-  
25°F (11-14°C), when the Brute Magnum is at  
high firing rate.  
The gas valve body will rarely have to be  
removed. If there is a valve problem, and it has been  
determined the actuator is working properly, the gas  
valve body may need to be replaced. To remove the  
gas valve body, shut off 120V power and the gas  
shutoff valve. Remove the right side and front panels.  
Remove the valve actuator. Unscrew the valve body  
from the gas train. After the valve has been removed,  
replace with a new valve in reverse order. Turn on gas

6. When the call for heat is complete, or the unit  
reaches its setpoint temperature, the gas valve  
will close, and the fan will continue to run for  
its 30 second post-purge. If a pump time delay  
is used, the pump will continue to run for the  
specified amount of time (adjustable from 0.1 to  
10 minutes).  
8.3 Delayed Ignition - Possible Causes  
8.3.1 High Lockup Pressure (LP Appliances)  
- Occurs on Start-up  
High lock up pressure is the most common  
cause of delayed ignitions on LP fueled appliances. It  
may result from an improper second stage regulator  
selection or from a faulty regulator.  
8.2 Resolving Lockouts  
Lock up can be detected by measuring the gas  
supply pressure to the appliance at the inlet pressure  
port on the gas valve. The gas supply to the appliance  
must be shut off before making any connections.  
To check: use a water manometer or pressure gauge  
with a scale reading of at least 25 in. W.C. or 15 oz/  
in2. (6.2kPa). Attach the manometer to the gas valve  
inlet pressure port. Turn on the gas supply. The  
Brute Magnum appliance is designed to operate with  
supply pressures of 4-13 in. W.C. (2.3 - 7.5 oz/ in²)  
(1.0-3.2kPa). If the supply pressure exceeds 13 in.  
W.C. (7.5 oz/ in²) (3.2kPa) (with the appliance off) it  
is possible that this may be the cause of the delayed  
ignitions and the inlet pressure must be reset to  
between 4-13 in. W.C. (2.3 – 7.5 oz/in2) (0.1-3.2kPa).  
Restart the appliance and then switch it off. If the inlet  
gas pressure exceeds 13 in. W.C. (7.5 oz/ in²) (3.2kPa)  
after the appliance is switched off, correct the lock up  
problem.  
There are many causes of lockouts. The four  
most common causes are: (1) inadequate gas supply,  
(2) poor combustion, (3) ignitor failure (4) combustion  
air.  
1. Inadequate gas supply: Before proceeding, ensure  
that the gas supply has not been shutoff or the LP  
tank (LP boilers) is not empty. Then, restart the  
boiler and observe the operational cycle. After  
the pre-purge time, the unit should light. If it  
does not, consult the factory.  
2. Poor Combustion: Poor combustion should be  
suspected if there is a strong flue gas odor. The  
odor may result from an improper gas/air ratio  
(high or low O or CO2). If an improper gas/air  
ratio is suspect2ed, consult the factory.  
3. Ignitor failure: If the boiler goes through a  
normal start cycle but combustion does not  
occur, ignitor failure should be suspected. Check  
the ignitor by unplugging the ignitor plug and  
measuring the ignitor resistance. It should be  
50-80 (Ω) ohms. If the resistance is not 50-80  
ohms (Ω), replace the ignitor. If the resistance is  
correct, reset the boiler and check for 120 VAC  
at the ignitor plug during the start cycle. If there  
is no voltage, replace the faulty ignitor wire  
harness.  
4. Inadequate combustion air: If the boiler goes  
through a normal ignition cycle, and shuts off  
after the blower ramps up to full speed, an  
abnormal restriction in the air intake or exhaust  
system should be suspected. Check the air filter  
for buildup of debris and clean filter if necessary.  
Inspect all exhaust venting and intake venting for  
blockages. Remove any blockages and inspect  
and replace any damaged vent sections. If the  
unit still continues to lockout after igniting,  
consult the factory.  
8.3.2 Gas Valve Regulation  
Gas valve regulation problems can also cause  
delayed ignitions. If gas valve regulation problems are  
suspected, consult the factory. Do not attempt field  
adjustment or repair.  
8.3.3 Defective Burner - Occurs on Startup  
or at Burner Shutdown  
A defective burner can cause a delayed ignition.  
If the gas supply pressure is proper, and the gas valve  
is functioning properly, the burner should be inspected.  
There should be no distortion or perforations in the  
burner. Replace if indicated.  
8.4 Short Cycling — Boiler  
Because the Brute Magnum is a modulating  
boiler, and its input will decrease when there is a  
reduction in heating load, short cycling is greatly  
reduced. If the heating load drops below the minimum  
input of the boiler for an extended period, the boiler  
will have a tendency to short cycle. This can be a  
symptom of improper control strategy or setpoints, or  
a load distribution problem. See Section 5.5 regarding  
controller setup. Contact your Representative to  
discuss possible remedies.  
Once the reason for the lockout has been  
identified and resolved you can reset the unit by  
pressing the manual reset button (see Detail A in  
Figure 30, Control Panel).

8.5 Short Cycling — Water Heater  
Short cycling will generally occur only in  
Section 9  
REPLACEMENT PARTS  
combination space heating and water heating  
applications when the water heater is operating in the  
space-heating mode. Because the Brute Magnum is a  
modulating water heater and its input will reduce when  
there is a reduction in heating load, short cycling is  
greatly reduced. If the heating load drops below the  
minimum input of the water heater for an extended  
period, the water heater will have a tendency to short  
cycle. If short cycling is frequently experienced,  
regardless of the control’s attempt to limit it, the  
heating load should be redistributed to control it. See  
Section 5.5 regarding controller setup.  
Only genuine Bradford White replacement parts  
should be used.  
9.1 General Information  
To order or purchase parts for the Brute  
Magnum, contact your nearest Bradford White dealer  
or distributor. If they cannot supply you with what you  
need, contact Customer Service (see back cover for  
information).  
If short cycling occurs in a water heater  
application, it is probably caused by undersized  
piping between the water heater and the storage tank  
or by some other factor that restricts proper water  
flow through the water heater. The cause should be  
determined and corrected.  
8.6 High Gas Consumption  
Appliances operating with an improper air/  
fuel ratio are very inefficient and consequently, have  
very high gas consumption. Because efficiency is  
high when the CO2 is high (or O2 is low), appliances  
operating with low CO2 or high O2 (especially LP  
appliances) consume more gas. Adjust the CO2 or O2  
for optimum efficiency. If no combustion analyzing  
equipment (CO2 or O2) is available then a proper  
adjustment of the air/fuel ratio (CO2 or O2) can not  
be accomplished. However, by briefly sniffing the  
flue gases it is possible to determine if the CO2 or O2  
is within the proper range. No significant flue gas  
odor should be detected when combustion is proper.  
A strong piercing smell indicates poor combustion  
and generally a lean mixture - low CO2 or high O2 .  
The CO2 should be 8 to 9% at all firing rates. Do not  
attempt to correct combustion. Contact factory if the  
CO2 is not within this range.
