Products
The company produces various types of water heaters, including natural gas-, electric- (including high efficiency heat pump models), propane- and heating oil-powered models. The lineup includes some high-efficiency and Energy Star models. The company also offers a line of natural gas- and propane-powered tankless water heaters known as EverHot (which are actually rebranded units produced by Rinnai), as well as storage tanks for solar water heaters.
In 2015, the EverHot series was replaced by the Infiniti series. Unlike the EverHot series which were rebranded Rinnai units, the Infiniti series was designed in-house by Bradford White and features an exclusive Scale Reduction Technology (SRT).
Business model
Bradford White has a longstanding business model where its water heaters are not sold directly to consumers; Bradford White water heaters are only sold to licensed plumbers at various supply houses. Bradford White claims this approach ensures proper and safe installation of its water heaters, and also prevents code violations.
Awards
In 2006, in a report by J.D. Power and Associates, Bradford White was ranked highest in subcontractor satisfaction of water heater brands.
