Hot Water List

Stiebel Eltron Mini 6-2

Stiebel Eltron Mini 6-2 is in the DOE listing as of Oct 26, 2026.

It has a certified UEF of 0.94 and a certified flow of 0.6 gal/min at a 67°F rise.

Its certified flow is 0.6 gal/min at a 67°F rise, while SupplyHouse advertises 2.0 gal/min, no rise stated (Archived copy, Mar 22, 2025), so a comparison at the same rise is not possible.

  • Electric tankless water heater
  • 1 listed model

ENERGY STAR certification does not cover this type of water heater.

Flow where you live

The heater gives less flow when colder incoming water needs a bigger rise.

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 0.6 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.

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

It heats 0.6 gallons per minute of water by 67°F in the test. The median electric tankless model heats 0.7 gallons per minute by 67°F. Its flow at a 67°F rise trails 179 of the 337 electric tankless models.

In the test, 6% of its energy does not reach the hot water (UEF 0.94). 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, 187 have a higher UEF. For its type and draw pattern, the median UEF is 0.96. When it runs, 98% of the energy it uses reaches the water (its recovery efficiency).

There is one more basic model with the same test figures. That one carries the Aquapower brand name.
