Bradford White 415-45073-00 Heat Trap
Maintain the thermal efficiency of residential and commercial water heating systems with the Bradford White 415-45073-00 Heat Trap. Specifically engineered as an inlet heat trap, this blue push-in single disc insert is a critical OEM water heater part designed to mitigate convective heat loss through the cold water supply line. By functioning as a one-way thermal barrier, it prevents standby heat from escaping the tank, ensuring the dip tube remains primed for optimal temperature stratification. This insert is a direct replacement for part number 239-45073-00 and is compatible with various Bradford White models, including the PDX250T, PDX265T, PDX275T, and PDX50S60 series. For contractors performing routine maintenance or high-efficiency upgrades, installing this genuine Bradford White replacement ensures the unit meets its original energy-efficiency ratings. The durable thermoplastic construction resists sediment buildup and stands up to the rigorous demands of light-duty commercial and residential gas water heaters without restricting flow rates.
Key Benefits- Reduces Standby Heat Loss: Prevents hot water from migrating into the cold water inlet, lowering energy consumption.
- OEM Precision Fit: Designed as a genuine inlet push-in single disc to ensure seamless integration with Bradford White dip tubes.
- Vivid Color Coding: The blue finish provides immediate identification for the cold water side, preventing installation errors on the job site.
- Advanced Material Durability: Constructed with high-grade materials to withstand thermal cycling and minimize mineral scale accumulation.
- Broad System Compatibility: Suitable for use across residential and light-duty commercial gas water heating platforms.
Is this part interchangeable with the 239-45073-00?
Yes, the 415-45073-00 and 239-45073-00 are technically identical and used interchangeably by the manufacturer to fulfill orders for this inlet heat trap.
Why is the heat trap color-coded blue?
The blue coloring signifies it is intended for the cold water inlet side. Using the correct insert ensures the thermal ball or disc operates correctly with the directional flow of the incoming water.
Can I install this in any water heater?
No, this is a specific OEM part. It is engineered for use with Bradford White PDX and Defender series models. Always verify your specific model and serial number before installation.
