ARISTON ARIHPWH-65

3.85 UEF DOE CCD · 2026-09-19
B

Grade 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 the ARISTON ARIHPWH-65 for a larger household, it uses 1,289 kWh of electricity a year at the high draw pattern, the standard daily hot-water usage DOE tests against. That is 17 kWh below the class median of 1,306 kWh, ranking 82nd lowest of 194.


Energy use per year

1,289 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 82 of 194, lowest energy first.

What these figures mean

The figure of 1,289 kWh is a computed value, not a registry entry. This site derived it from the registry's UEF, the ratio of hot water delivered to energy used, which is 3.85 for this model, and from the daily hot-water draw in the DOE test for the high draw pattern. The fuel is electricity, and the source is DOE CCD, retrieved 2026-09-19. The comparison group is the 194 models registered as an electric tank at the high draw pattern, with a class median of 1,306 kWh. This model sits 17 kWh below that median. That places it 82nd lowest of 194, in the second-lowest quarter of its class for energy use.

The energy figure applies only at the test's high draw pattern, which describes a larger household, or one where showers and laundry overlap. The first hour rating, the gallons of hot water available in the first hour from a full tank, is 78 gallons. The rated volume is 62 gallons. A household that draws less hot water than the test would be expected to use less than 1,289 kWh, and one that draws more would use more. This page has no measured figure for either case. Energy use at other draw patterns is not available here, and the 17 kWh gap to the median is a comparison within the high draw pattern only. To narrow options by fuel, space and size, use the water heater selector.

The running cost is not stated in this text because it depends on your own utility electricity tariff. The cost calculator applies the electricity rate for your ZIP to the 1,289 kWh figure. The calculation method explains how the annual cost is derived from it. The modeled installed-cost range, with its source and date, appears in its own block on the page and is not repeated here. If you are checking a swap, you can find a same-class replacement by model number and compare it with ARISTON ARIHPWH-65 against the class median of 1,306 kWh. The annual figure is computed at the federal test's draw and is not a measurement of your household's use.
