UEF is the uniform energy factor. A dash means the model has no such figure.
It holds 49 gallons in the test, 1 gallon less than its 50-gallon sold size. Starting full, it gives 99 gallons of hot water in its first hour of use. That is 50 gallons more than its tank holds, since it reheats during the hour. Among 763 gas storage models, 89 have a higher first-hour rating. Among gas storage models, the median first-hour rating is 78 gallons.
On Oct 26, 2026, this heater was not listed as ENERGY STAR certified. In tests, 61% of the energy it uses ends up as hot water (UEF 0.61). Its test simulated a day of high hot water use (its draw pattern). Of 434 gas storage models with the same draw pattern, 419 have a higher UEF. For its type and draw pattern, the median UEF is 0.66. When it reheats water in the test, 75% of the energy it uses ends up in the water.
A tag or quote may show any of its 6 model numbers. There are 4 more basic models with the same test figures. They are listed under 4 other brands, one each. For the full group, see the A. O. Smith GCRX-50 2**.
