Description
The Bradford White 229-53466-01 is a genuine OEM replacement PEX dip tube engineered specifically for Bradford White water heaters equipped with the HydroJet® total performance system. This dip tube features a 3/4 NPT connection and is constructed from durable cross-linked polyethylene (PEX) material, offering excellent resistance to high temperatures and the mineral-rich water conditions common in water heater applications.
HydroJet Total Performance System
The HydroJet design incorporates a unique turbulence-inducing tip that directs incoming cold water to the bottom of the tank in a swirling pattern. This action continuously scours sediment from the tank floor, reducing buildup that can degrade efficiency and shorten tank life. The result is consistently improved heat transfer, quieter operation, and extended water heater service life.
Key Features
- Genuine Bradford White OEM replacement part
- PEX (cross-linked polyethylene) construction for high-temperature durability
- 3/4 NPT threaded connection for straightforward installation
- HydroJet® turbulence tip reduces sediment accumulation at tank bottom
- Helps maintain peak energy efficiency and hot water output
- Direct drop-in replacement for compatible Bradford White water heater models
Application
- Designed for use with Bradford White residential and light commercial water heaters
- Replaces worn, cracked, or failed dip tubes causing cold water complaints or reduced hot water capacity
- Compatible with Bradford White models originally equipped with the HydroJet® dip tube system
Why Replace Your Dip Tube?
A failed or deteriorated dip tube allows cold incoming water to mix directly with hot water at the top of the tank, resulting in lukewarm output and reduced efficiency. Replacing the dip tube with a genuine Bradford White PEX HydroJet® unit restores full hot water capacity and protects the tank from sediment-related damage.
