BRADFORD WHITE RE130L*-*****
0.92 UEF DOE CCD · 2026-09-19Grade G: where this UEF sits among the 163 models in its class, lowest (G) to highest (A). A position, not an official label. How the grade is set
An electric tank, low draw pattern (a one- or two-person household).
If you are checking the BRADFORD WHITE RE130L*-*****, an electric tank, this site computes 2,439 kWh of electricity a year for it. That figure applies at the low draw pattern, the standard daily hot-water usage DOE tests against. It equals the class median of 2,439 kWh for the 163 electric tanks registered at that pattern.
Energy use per year
2,439 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 equal to the median of 2,439 kWh for the 163 models registered in the same heater type and draw pattern; it ranks 19 of 163, lowest energy first.
Solid line: this model (2,439 kWh). Dashed line: the class median.

What it costs to install
Not published: Installed cost range
This model's rated tank size lies outside the range NLR REMDB's cost model was fitted on, and the range is not stretched past it.
The annual energy figure on this page does not depend on this range and is unaffected.
Safety record
No CPSC recall names this model.
Checked against the CPSC recall database. CPSC does not publish a model-level match for this product category, so this list is curated by hand from the manufacturer's recall filings.

This site computes the 2,439 kWh figure. The registry does not publish it. The calculation combines the registry's UEF, the ratio of hot water delivered to energy used, with the daily hot-water draw the DOE test sets for the low draw pattern. For this model, the registry lists a UEF of 0.92, retrieved from DOE CCD on 2026-09-19. The figure holds only at that test draw. A household with a different daily volume will use a different amount, and the data does not show how much. The steps are set out in how this site calculates annual energy and cost.
This model ranks 19th lowest for energy use among the 163 electric tanks at the low draw pattern. Its figure also equals the class median, a difference of 0 kWh. Both can be true only if several models have the same figure, and the data does not say how many do. The low draw pattern represents a small household, so the figure applies to a home whose daily use matches it. The first hour rating, the gallons of hot water available in the first hour from a full tank, is 42 gallons. The rated volume is 26 gallons. These ratings do not cover a home that regularly needs more hot water in its busiest hour.
This page does not state the running cost because it depends on the reader's own electricity tariff. Multiplying 2,439 kWh by that tariff gives the yearly cost at the low draw pattern's test draw. The cost calculator for your own ZIP does this with local rates. No installed price range is published for this model. Its ratings fall outside the range the cost database's model was fitted on, and the site does not extend that range. To check another electric tank at the same draw pattern against the UEF of 0.92 and the 2,439 kWh figure, use the same-class replacement search by model number.
