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

It holds 36 gallons in the test, 2 gallons less than its 38-gallon sold size. Over one hour from a full tank, it gave 41 gallons in the test (its first-hour rating). That is 5 gallons more than its tank holds, since it reheats during the hour. Of 477 electric storage models, 429 give more hot water in the first hour. The median electric storage model gives 55 gallons in its first hour.

In tests, 91% of the energy went to hot water, so its UEF is 0.91. Its test ran at the low level of daily hot water use. Its UEF is lower than that of 81 of the 157 electric storage models with its draw pattern. For its type and draw pattern, the UEF runs from 0.88 to 0.95. The water took in 98% of the energy used to reheat it (its recovery efficiency).

Its test figures match those of 2 other basic models. The Ariston and Lennox brands list one or more of them.
