UEF is the uniform energy factor. A dash means the model has no such figure.
It holds 38 gallons in the test, 2 gallons less than its 40-gallon sold size. Starting full, it gives 62 gallons of hot water in its first hour of use. That is 24 gallons more than its tank holds, since it reheats during the hour. Among 763 gas storage models, 671 have a higher first-hour rating. The median gas storage model gives 78 gallons in the first hour of the test.
As of Oct 26, 2026, it was not listed as ENERGY STAR certified. In the test, 36% of its energy does not reach the hot water (UEF 0.64). The daily hot water use in the test, called its draw pattern, was medium. Of 288 gas storage models with the same draw pattern, 43 have a higher UEF and 227 a lower one. For its type and draw pattern, the UEF runs from 0.57 to 0.75. When it reheats water in the test, 78% of the energy it uses ends up in the water.
It is the basic model for RG2D40S*N, RG2D40S*X, and URG2D40S*N. There is one more basic model with the same test figures. That one is listed under the JETGLAS brand.
