UEF is the uniform energy factor. A dash means the model has no such figure.
It holds 26 gallons in the test, 2 gallons less than its 28-gallon sold size. Over one hour from a full tank, it gave 45 gallons in the test (its first-hour rating). Reheating lets it give 19 gallons beyond the 26 gallons in its tank. In the first hour, 377 of the 477 electric storage models give more hot water. The median electric storage model gives 55 gallons in the first hour of the test.
In tests, 92% of the energy it uses ends up as hot water (UEF 0.92). The daily hot water use in the test, called its draw pattern, was low. Its UEF is lower than that of 12 of the 157 electric storage models with its draw pattern. Its UEF is the median for its type and draw pattern. Of the energy spent to reheat water, 98% goes into it (its recovery efficiency).
It is the basic model for D28-45FI and MEWH28L82S1. All of its test figures are shared by 7 other basic models. Besides this brand, 5 brands list one or more of them. You can find the whole group on the page for the Rheem PROE28 S2 RH95 B.
