1.3 Warranty
Bradford White’s Brute Magnum appliances
are covered by a limited warranty. The owner should
fill out the warranty registration card and return it to
Bradford White.
All warranty claims must be made to an
authorized Bradford White representative or directly
to the factory. Claims must include the serial number
and model (this information can be found on the rating
plate), installation date, and name of the installer.
Shipping costs are not included in the warranty
coverage.
Some accessory items are shipped in separate
packages. Verify receipt of all packages listed on
the packing slip. Inspect everything for damage
immediately upon delivery, and advise the carrier of
any shortages or damage. Any such claims should be
filed with the carrier. The carrier, not the shipper, is
responsible for shortages and damage to the shipment
whether visible or concealed.
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
appliance should be chosen with regard to the vent
pipe lengths and external plumbing. The unit shall be
installed such that the gas ignition system components
are protected from water (dripping, spraying, rain, etc.)
during operation and service (circulator replacement,
control replacement, etc.). When vented vertically, the
Brute Magnum must be located as close as practical
to a chimney or gas vent. If the vent terminal and/
or combustion air terminal terminate through a wall,
and there is potential for snow accumulation in the
local area, both terminals should be installed at an
appropriate level above grade.
The dimensions and requirements that are shown
in Table 1 should be met when choosing the locations
for the appliance:

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.
1.7 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.
