Colder incoming water needs a bigger rise, so the heater gives less flow.
- Cold water
- Cold water must be at least 10°F colder than the hot water setting.
- Flow estimate
- The estimate uses the lowest certified flow among the listed models. It is about 0.4 gal/min at a 70°F rise.
Flow limits
- The estimate excludes the flow needed to turn the heater on, heat lost in pipes, and installation.
- Cold water from a well or long pipe run can differ from the temperature you enter.
- Without a stated flow limit, estimates for warmer water may exceed the heater’s actual flow.

Certified figures by listed model
| Model number | UEF | Flow at a 67°F rise (gal/min) | Recovery efficiency | Draw pattern |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| UPVS-40Y 1** | 0.93 | 0.4 | 98% | Very small |
UEF is the uniform energy factor. A dash means the model has no such figure.
It heats 0.4 gallons per minute of water by 67°F in the test. The electric tankless type has a median flow of 0.7 gallons per minute. Of 337 electric tankless models, 233 have a higher flow than this one.
In tests, 93% of the energy it uses ends up as hot water (UEF 0.93). In the test, daily hot water use was set to very small (its draw pattern). Of 272 electric tankless models with the same draw pattern, 217 have a higher UEF. On its draw pattern, the median electric tankless UEF is 0.96. While it heats water, 98% of the energy used goes into the water (its recovery efficiency).
All of its test figures are shared by 3 other basic models. The A. O. Smith, Aquapower, and Stiebel Eltron brands list one or more of them. For the full group, see the A. O. Smith UPVA-40Y 1** page.
