Installation (Locating The Water Heater) continued-

The water heater must be located close enough to the outside wall to keep
the venting distance within the maximum distance described in the
installation instructions. Note: The direct vent-air intake terminal must be
installed on a vertical wall. Read the venting section in this installation
instruction manual before locating the water heater.
This water heater must be located in an area where leakage of the tank or
water line connections and the combination temperature and pressure relief
valve will not result in damage to the area adjacent to the water heater or to
lower floors of the structure. When such locations cannot be avoided, a
suitable drain pan, adequately drained, must be installed under the water
heater. The pan must not restrict combustion airflow. The drain pan must
have a minimum length and width of at least 4 in. (10.2 cm) greater than the
diameter of the water heater and must not restrict proper combustion air flow
to the water heater. The drain pan, as described above, can be purchased
from your plumbing professional. The drain pan must be piped to an
adequate drain. The piping must be at least 3/4 inch (1.9 cm) in diameter
and pitched for proper drainage.
It is recommended that a minimum clearance of four (4) inches (10.2 cm) be
provided on the side of the water heater for servicing and maintenance of the
combination temperature and pressure relief valve.

[Click to enlarge any image]

Bradford White water heater age is encloded as two letters in water heater's serial number as follows: Dji phantom 4 professional user manual.

Current Bradford White water heater date code format: YM234567..

First letter = year of manufacture

Beginning with A = 1964 or A = 1984 r for newer water heaters made after 2003, A = 2004

Ending with Z = 2003 or M = 2015 etc.

Second letter = month of manufacture

Later model water heaters may replace letters with an actual year and month encoding as numeric digits.

Beginning with A = January and ending with M = December

Example: Bradford White water heater serial number ZJnnnnnnn = 2003, September

Note: in the month code the company encodes the month in A - M and does not make use of letters I, O, Q, R, U or V)

Jetglas water heaters made by Bradford White use the following date enoding:

YM1234567 encoding the year and month alphabetically using A-M for month (skipping the letter I) and a series of year-series for alphabetic letters.
