UEF is the uniform energy factor. A dash means the model has no such figure.

It holds 35 gallons in the test, 3 gallons less than its 38-gallon sold size. Over one hour from a full tank, it gave 38 gallons in the test (its first-hour rating). Its tank holds 35 gallons, so reheating adds 3 gallons during the first hour. Among 477 electric storage models, 459 have a higher first-hour rating. Among electric storage models, the median first-hour rating is 55 gallons.

In tests, 90% of the energy went to hot water, so its UEF is 0.90. The daily hot water use in the test, called its draw pattern, was low. Of 157 electric storage models with the same draw pattern, 115 have a higher UEF. On its draw pattern, the median electric storage UEF is 0.92. Of the energy spent to reheat water, 98% goes into it (its recovery efficiency).

Its test figures match those of 3 other basic models. Those basic models are sold with A. O. Smith, American, and Lochinvar as their brand names. For the full group, see the A. O. Smith ENLB-40W 1** page.
