It holds 36 gallons in the test, 4 gallons less than its 40-gallon sold size. Over one hour from a full tank, it gave 53 gallons in the test (its first-hour rating). Its tank holds 36 gallons, so reheating adds 17 gallons during the first hour. Among 477 electric storage models, 265 have a higher first-hour rating. The median electric storage model gives 55 gallons in its first hour.
