BRADFORD WHITE RE2HP50**-1NCTT
3.89 UEF DOE CCD · 2026-09-19Grade A: where this UEF sits among the 426 models in its class, lowest (G) to highest (A). A position, not an official label. How the grade is set
An electric tank, medium draw pattern (a typical three- or four-person household, about 55 gallons on a busy morning).
If you are checking the BRADFORD WHITE RE2HP50**-1NCTT, it uses 835 kWh of electricity a year at the medium draw pattern, the standard daily hot-water usage DOE tests against. That is 2,696 kWh below the 3,531 kWh median for the 426 electric tank models at the same draw pattern, ranking 3rd lowest.
Energy use per year
835 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 3,531 kWh for the 426 models registered in the same heater type and draw pattern; it ranks 3 of 426, lowest energy first.
Solid line: this model (835 kWh). Dashed line: the class median.

UEF 3.89 · Grade A Price it on your ZIP
The 835 kWh figure is computed by this site, not published by the registry. 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 medium pattern. The medium pattern stands for a typical mid-sized household on the federal test. This model's UEF is 3.89, and the source record is the DOE CCD, retrieved 2026-09-19. The figure holds only at that test draw. A household using more or less hot water will see a different yearly total. The steps behind the figure are set out in how the annual cost is calculated.
The rank of 3rd lowest of 426 applies only among electric tank models tested at the medium draw pattern. Its first hour rating, the gallons of hot water available in the first hour from a full tank, is 65 gallons from a rated volume of 45 gallons. The comparison fits a household whose daily use is close to the medium pattern and whose busiest hour stays within 65 gallons. It does not fit a household whose peak hour draws more than that. It also does not carry over to other fuels or draw patterns, which sit outside this class. To check other sizes or fuels, use the water heater selector by fuel, space and size.
This page states no running cost in the text. The cost of 835 kWh of electricity a year depends on your own utility tariff, and tariffs differ by provider and plan. The page computes that cost from your ZIP instead of assuming a rate. The same rate applies to the 3,531 kWh class median, so the 2,696 kWh gap in energy use scales with whatever rate you pay. The installed-cost range shown in its own block is a modeled range, not a quote. For a direct calculation, enter your ZIP in the water heater cost calculator. To compare against a unit in the same class, find a same-class replacement by model number.
