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

Sold as 55 gallons, it holds 55 gallons in the test. It delivers 72 gallons of hot water in the test's first hour. Its tank holds 55 gallons, so reheating adds 17 gallons during the first hour. In the first hour, 37 of the 477 electric storage models give more hot water. Among electric storage models, the median first-hour rating is 55 gallons.

In tests, 93% of the energy it uses ends up as hot water (UEF 0.93). The daily hot water use in the test, called its draw pattern, was medium. Among 297 electric storage models on its draw pattern, 20 have a higher UEF. For its type and draw pattern, the UEF runs from 0.91 to 0.95. The water took in 98% of the energy used to reheat it (its recovery efficiency).

A tag or quote may show any of its 5 model numbers. Its test figures match those of 4 other basic models. They are listed under 4 other brands, one each. For the full group, see the A. O. Smith ENT-55 1** page.
