Vertical Water Heater 50 Liter Capacity White, 1200 WATT

What is a Bradford White 50 gallon water heater?

A Bradford White 50 gallon water heater delivers consistent hot water for large households and commercial spaces across Saudi Arabia. These units combine heavy-duty tank construction with advanced anode protection to prevent corrosion. The system operates efficiently in 45°C+ environments, maintaining stable output even when demand spikes during peak afternoon hours in Riyadh or Jeddah. Manufacturers updated internal baffles in 2026 to improve thermal stratification, which cuts recovery time by nearly fifteen percent.

How much does it cost in Saudi Arabia?

Pricing for a 50-gallon unit typically ranges from 850 SAR to 1,400 SAR depending on insulation grade and fuel type. Electric models like the 1200 W vertical tank start at 850 SAR. Gas variants cost near 1,200 SAR but recover heat faster. Matkel stocks SASO-certified units across Riyadh, Jeddah, and Dammam for immediate site delivery. Purchase orders under 50 SAR qualify for standard shipping, while bulk construction orders receive priority dispatch.

Installation and Climate Adaptation Guide

Saudi plumbing standards require vertical mounting with a 300 mm clearance from combustible surfaces. Install a 150 PSI pressure relief valve and route drain pipes downward to prevent thermal expansion damage. Sand storms and 45°C+ temperatures accelerate exterior corrosion. Wipe the casing monthly and replace the magnesium rod every twelve months. The 604 mm height and 444 mm width fit standard utility enclosures without blocking airflow. Always verify local municipal codes before connecting to municipal pressure lines.
