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

It holds 36 gallons in the test, 4 gallons less than its 40-gallon sold size. Starting full, it gives 63 gallons of hot water in its first hour of use. Reheating lets it give 27 gallons beyond the 36 gallons in its tank. Of 477 electric storage models, 99 give more hot water in the first hour. The median electric storage model gives 55 gallons in the first hour of the test.

In tests, 93% of the energy went to hot water, so its UEF is 0.93. Its test simulated a day of medium hot water use (its draw pattern). Among 297 electric storage models on its draw pattern, 20 have a higher UEF. For its type and draw pattern, the median UEF is 0.92. The water took in 98% of the energy used to reheat it (its recovery efficiency).

It is sold as EE6-40-DURT 1**, EEA8-40-DFRT 1**, and EEX-40-DURT 1**. All of its test figures are shared by 4 other basic models. They are listed under 4 other brands, one each. For the full group, see the A. O. Smith HETF-40 1**.
