ACIQ ACIQ-80G-HP-WH
4 UEF DOE CCD · 2026-09-19Grade B: where this UEF sits among the 194 models in its class, lowest (G) to highest (A). A position, not an official label. How the grade is set
An electric tank, high draw pattern (a larger household, or one where showers and laundry overlap).
If you are checking ACIQ ACIQ-80G-HP-WH against a second source, it uses 1,240 kWh of electricity a year at the high draw pattern, the standard daily hot-water usage DOE tests against for a larger household. That is 66 kWh below the 1,306 kWh median of the 194 electric tank models in that class.
Energy use per year
1,240 kWh a year
Computed by this site from the registry's UEF and the federal test's daily hot-water draw for this draw pattern. What it costs depends on the electricity rate where you live.
That is below the median of 1,306 kWh for the 194 models registered in the same heater type and draw pattern; it ranks 30 of 194, lowest energy first.
Solid line: this model (1,240 kWh). Dashed line: the class median.

This annual figure is computed by this site, not by the registry. It combines the registry's UEF, the ratio of hot water delivered to energy used, of 4 with the DOE test's daily hot-water draw for the high draw pattern. The source is the DOE CCD, retrieved 2026-09-19. Among the 194 models registered as an electric tank at this draw pattern, the unit ranks 30th lowest for energy use, which puts it in the lowest quarter of its class. Its 1,240 kWh sits 66 kWh below the class median of 1,306 kWh. A household whose real hot-water use differs from the test draw will see a different figure.
The high draw pattern describes a larger household, or one where showers and laundry overlap. For that use, this unit lists a first hour rating, the gallons of hot water available in the first hour from a full tank, of 91, and a rated volume of 74 gallons. Those are the figures to hold against your own busiest hour. This page does not judge whether they meet a particular home. It also does not show energy use for any other draw pattern, so a smaller household cannot read its own annual energy from 1,240 kWh. The water heater selector by fuel, space and size filters by those constraints.
Running cost is not stated in the text because it depends on your own utility electricity tariff, and the registry does not supply one. Multiplying 1,240 kWh by your rate gives the yearly electricity cost at the test draw. The cost calculator on your own ZIP does this, and how the annual cost is calculated sets out the method. The 66 kWh gap from the 1,306 kWh class median is a difference in energy, and its effect on cost changes with your rate. The installed price range is in its own block on this page, as a modeled installed-cost range and not a quote.
