Flow where you live

Colder incoming water needs a bigger rise, so the heater gives less flow.

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 2.4 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 heats 2.5 gallons per minute of water by 67°F in the test. The median electric tankless model heats 0.7 gallons per minute by 67°F. Its flow at a 67°F rise trails 13 of the 337 electric tankless models.

In tests, 93% of the energy went to hot water, so its UEF is 0.93. Of the energy it spends heating water, 98% ends up in it (its recovery efficiency).

It is the basic model for EEM24027, HA027240, and PR027240. Its test figures match those of 2 other basic models. The ECOSMART and Rheem brands list one or more of them. You can find the whole group on the page for the Rheem ECO27.
