Hot Water List

Laars LCTEV005********

Laars LCTEV005******** is in the DOE listing as of Oct 19, 2026.

  • Electric tankless water heater
  • 1 listed model

ENERGY STAR certification does not cover this type of water heater.

Its figures are also listed under Bradford White CTEH005********.

Certified figures

Flow at a 67°F rise
0.5gallons per minute
UEF
0.96Uniform energy factor

Flow where you live

A bigger rise from colder incoming water leaves the heater with 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 0.5 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 0.5 gallons per minute of water by 67°F in the test. The median flow among electric tankless models is 0.7 gallons per minute. Of 337 electric tankless models, 204 have a higher flow than this one.

In tests, 96% of the energy it uses ends up as hot water (UEF 0.96). Its test ran at the very small level of daily hot water use. Of 272 electric tankless models with the same draw pattern, 77 have a higher UEF and 121 a lower one. For its type and draw pattern, its UEF sits at the median. Of the energy it spends heating water, 97% ends up in it (its recovery efficiency).

Its test figures match those of 2 other basic models. Those basic models are sold with Bradford White as their brand names. For the full group, see the Bradford White CTEH005********.
