AMERICAN HPTS-66 2**
3.7 UEF DOE CCD · 2026-09-19Grade C: 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 verifying the AMERICAN HPTS-66 2**, it uses 1,341 kWh of electricity a year. That figure belongs to the high draw pattern, the standard daily hot-water usage DOE tests against. It sits 35 kWh above the 1,306 kWh median of the 194 electric tank models at that pattern, ranking 101st lowest.
Energy use per year
1,341 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 above the median of 1,306 kWh for the 194 models registered in the same heater type and draw pattern; it ranks 101 of 194, lowest energy first.
Solid line: this model (1,341 kWh). Dashed line: the class median.

UEF 3.7 · Grade C Price it on your ZIP
This site computed the 1,341 kWh figure; the registry does not publish it. It combines the registry's UEF, the ratio of hot water delivered to energy used, with the DOE test's daily hot-water draw for the high pattern. For this model the UEF is 3.7, taken from the DOE CCD on 2026-09-19. The figure therefore holds only at the federal test's daily draw. A household that draws more hot water than the test will use more electricity, and one that draws less will use less. The data does not show how much more or less a given home would use. The steps behind the figure are set out on the page about how this site calculates annual energy and cost.
The high draw pattern describes a larger household, or one where showers and laundry overlap. This model lists a first hour rating, the gallons of hot water available in the first hour from a full tank, of 82 gallons. Its rated volume is 67 gallons. A home with lower hot-water demand than the high pattern was not what the test measured, so the 1,341 kWh figure does not describe that home's use. Within its class the model ranks 101st lowest in energy use of 194. That places it in the second-highest quarter of its class for energy use. A plumber or seller checking alternatives can search for a same-class replacement by model number to see other models in this class.
This page does not state a running cost, because the cost depends on your own electricity tariff. Instead, the page calculates it from your ZIP code, using the 1,341 kWh figure at the high draw pattern. The 35 kWh gap above the class median of 1,306 kWh is a difference in energy, not in cost. What that gap costs you also depends on your rate. The modeled installed-cost range appears in its own block, with its source and date; it is a model, not a quote. To apply the figure to your own rate, use the running-cost calculator for your ZIP. The registry has no data on energy use outside the federal test's daily draw.
