Change your hour and flowFlow where you live
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 3.4 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| VH8KR-NG | 0.82 | 3.6 | 85% | Medium |
UEF is the uniform energy factor. A dash means the model has no such figure.
It heats 3.6 gallons per minute of water by 67°F in the test. The gas tankless type has a median flow of 4.8 gallons per minute. Of 487 gas tankless models, 409 have a higher flow than this one.
It was not listed as ENERGY STAR certified on Oct 19, 2026. In tests, 82% of the energy it uses ends up as hot water (UEF 0.82). In the test, daily hot water use was set to medium (its draw pattern). Of 77 gas tankless models with the same draw pattern, 30 have a higher UEF and 29 a lower one. On its draw pattern, its UEF is also the median gas tankless UEF. When it runs, 85% of the energy it uses reaches the water (its recovery efficiency).
All of its test figures are shared by one other basic model. That one is listed under the Ranein brand. For the full group, see the Ranein RH8K-NG page.
It may qualify for one rebate program if it meets their other terms.
