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 4.4 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.

At a 67°F rise, its flow in the test is 4.6 gallons per minute. The median gas tankless model heats 4.8 gallons per minute by 67°F. Among 487 gas tankless models, 300 give more flow at a 67°F rise.

It was not listed as ENERGY STAR certified on Oct 19, 2026. In tests, 81% of the energy it uses ends up as hot water (UEF 0.81). Its test simulated a day of high hot water use (its draw pattern). Of 399 gas tankless models with the same draw pattern, 327 have a higher UEF. On its draw pattern, the median gas tankless UEF is 0.93. Of the energy it spends heating water, 85% ends up in it (its recovery efficiency).

There are 5 more basic models with the same test figures. Each of them is listed under a different brand. For the full group, see the A. O. Smith TK-310C-NI 1**.
