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

It holds 28 gallons in the test, 2 gallons less than its 30-gallon sold size. Starting full, it gives 48 gallons of hot water in its first hour of use. That is 20 gallons more than its tank holds, since it reheats during the hour. Among 477 electric storage models, 344 have a higher first-hour rating. Among electric storage models, the median first-hour rating is 55 gallons.

In tests, 92% of the energy it uses ends up as hot water (UEF 0.92). Its test ran at the low level of daily hot water use. Among 157 electric storage models on its draw pattern, 12 have a higher UEF. On its draw pattern, its UEF is also the median electric storage UEF. Of the energy spent to reheat water, 98% goes into it (its recovery efficiency).
