Description
The Bradford White 229-51230-08 is a genuine OEM replacement dip tube designed to maintain optimal water heater performance. Measuring 42-1/2″ in length with a 2″ nipple, this dip tube directs incoming cold water to the bottom of the tank, ensuring efficient heat transfer and minimizing cold-water mixing at the hot water outlet.
Key Features

Why Replace Your Dip Tube?
A damaged or deteriorated dip tube can cause cold water to mix directly with hot water at the top of the tank, resulting in lukewarm output and reduced efficiency. Replacing with a genuine Bradford White dip tube restores proper stratification and ensures your water heater operates as designed.
