Flow where you live

The heater gives less flow when colder incoming water needs a bigger rise.

Cold water
Cold water must be at least 10°F colder than the hot water setting.
Flow estimate
The estimate uses the lowest certified flow among the listed models. It is about 3.4 gal/min at a 70°F rise.

Flow limits

  • The estimate excludes the flow needed to turn the heater on, heat lost in pipes, and installation.
  • Cold water from a well or long pipe run can differ from the temperature you enter.
  • Without a stated flow limit, estimates for warmer water may exceed the heater’s actual flow.

UEF is the uniform energy factor. A dash means the model has no such figure.

It warms 3.6 gallons per minute of water from 58°F to 125°F in the test. The median flow among gas tankless models is 4.8 gallons per minute. Among 487 gas tankless models, 409 give more flow at a 67°F rise.

As of Oct 19, 2026, it was not listed as ENERGY STAR certified. In the test, 19% of its energy does not reach the hot water (UEF 0.81). Its test ran at the medium level of daily hot water use. Its UEF is lower than that of 48 of the 77 gas tankless models with its draw pattern. A UEF of 0.82 is the median for its type and draw pattern. Of the energy it spends heating water, 84% ends up in it (its recovery efficiency).

There are 10 more basic models with the same test figures. Between them, those basic models carry 4 other brand names. You can find the whole group on the page for the A. O. Smith ATI-140B-N 1**.
