Rheem AM008277T
Rheem AM008277T is in the DOE listing as of Oct 26, 2026.
It has a certified UEF of 0.96 and a certified flow of 0.8 gal/min at a 67°F rise.
Its certified flow is 0.8 gal/min at a 67°F rise, while Rheem advertises 3.0 gal/min, no rise stated (Read Oct 4, 2026), so a comparison at the same rise is not possible.
- Electric tankless water heater
- 1 listed model
ENERGY STAR certification does not cover this type of water heater.

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 0.8 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 0.8 gallons per minute of water by 67°F in the test. The median electric tankless model heats 0.7 gallons per minute by 67°F. Of 337 electric tankless models, 131 have a higher flow than this one.
In tests, 96% of the energy went to hot water, so its UEF is 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. Its UEF is the median for its type and draw pattern. Of the energy it spends heating water, 95% ends up in it (its recovery efficiency).
Its test figures match those of 7 other basic models. Those basic models are sold with EEMAX and KWICKSHOT as their brand names.
