BRADFORD WHITE RE350S*-*****
0.92 UEF DOE CCD · 2026-09-19Grade G: 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 RE350S*-*****, this electric tank uses 3,531 kWh of electricity a year. That figure applies at the medium draw pattern, the standard daily hot-water usage DOE tests against. It is equal to the class median of 3,531 kWh, a difference of 0 kWh, and ranks 213th lowest energy use of 426.
Energy use per year
3,531 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 3,531 kWh for the 426 models registered in the same heater type and draw pattern; it ranks 213 of 426, lowest energy first.
Solid line: this model (3,531 kWh). Dashed line: the class median.

UEF 0.92 · Grade G Price it on your ZIP
This site calculated the 3,531 kWh figure; the registry does not list 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 medium pattern. The registry lists this model's UEF as 0.92. The source is DOE CCD, retrieved 2026-09-19. The figure holds only at the test's daily draw, so a household that draws more or less hot water will use a different amount. That amount is not available here. The comparison group is the 426 models registered as an electric tank at the medium draw pattern. Within that group, the registry data place this model in the second-lowest quarter for energy use.
The registry gives a first hour rating, the gallons of hot water available in the first hour from a full tank, of 60 gallons. Its rated volume is 45 gallons. The medium pattern stands for a typical three- or four-person household with a busy morning. A household whose peak use fits within 60 gallons matches the conditions behind the 3,531 kWh figure. Heavier peak use is outside those conditions, and the registry gives no energy figure for it. To compare other units, use the water heater selector by fuel, space and size. To check a like-for-like swap, you can find a same-class replacement by model number.
The text does not give a running cost for this model. The cost of 3,531 kWh of electricity depends on your own utility tariff. The page calculates it from your ZIP and does not estimate it. Enter your ZIP in the cost calculator for your own ZIP to see the result at your rate. The calculator uses the same medium-pattern energy figure, so the same test condition applies. The steps are set out in how the annual cost is calculated. This model's energy use equals the class median of 3,531 kWh. At the same rate, its running cost would therefore match a median-use model in this class. The installed price range has its own block, with its source and date. It is a modeled range, not a quote.
