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

It holds 49 gallons in the test, 1 gallon less than its 50-gallon sold size. Starting full, it gives 92 gallons of hot water in its first hour of use. Its tank holds 49 gallons, so reheating adds 43 gallons during the first hour. Among 763 gas storage models, 116 have a higher first-hour rating. Among gas storage models, the median first-hour rating is 78 gallons.

It was not listed as ENERGY STAR certified on Oct 26, 2026. In the test, 37% of its energy does not reach the hot water (UEF 0.63). The daily hot water use in the test, called its draw pattern, was high. Of 434 gas storage models with the same draw pattern, 339 have a higher UEF. For its type and draw pattern, the median UEF is 0.66. Of the energy spent to reheat water, 77% goes into it (its recovery efficiency).

All of its test figures are shared by 3 other basic models. Those basic models are sold with A. O. Smith, American, and Lochinvar as their brand names. You can find the whole group on the page for the A. O. Smith GURT-50RL 4**.
