Flow where you live

The heater gives less flow when colder incoming water needs a bigger rise.

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 4.5 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.

It heats 4.7 gallons per minute of water by 67°F in the test. The median gas tankless model heats 4.8 gallons per minute by 67°F. Its flow at a 67°F rise trails 252 of the 487 gas tankless models.

It has 4 model numbers that are ENERGY STAR certified. In tests, 98% of the energy it uses ends up as hot water (UEF 0.98). The daily hot water use in the test, called its draw pattern, was high. Of 399 gas tankless models with the same draw pattern, none has a higher UEF. For its type and draw pattern, the UEF runs from 0.81 to 0.98. When it runs, 99% of the energy it uses reaches the water (its recovery efficiency).

It is sold under 4 model numbers in all.

It may qualify for 6 rebate programs. Another 2 rebate programs may accept it if it meets their other terms.
