BRADFORD WHITE RG250R*N

The registry lists a UEF, the ratio of hot water delivered to energy used, of 0.64 for this model. This site computed the annual figure of 264 therms from that UEF and the DOE test's daily hot-water draw for the high draw pattern. The registry does not publish the annual figure itself. The source is the DOE CCD, retrieved 2026-09-19. Among the 414 models registered as a gas tank at this draw pattern, this one ranks 236th lowest energy use of 414. That places it in the second-highest quarter of its class, 4 therms above the median of 260 therms. The ranking covers this draw pattern only.

This model suits a larger household, or one where showers and laundry overlap, because it is registered at the high draw pattern. Its first hour rating, the gallons of hot water available in the first hour from a full tank, is 78 gallons. The rated volume is 47 gallons. It is a less direct fit for a reader whose priority is low energy use. At 236th lowest of 414, more models in the class use less energy than this one. Energy use at a lighter draw pattern is not available on this page, so a smaller household cannot read its own figure here.

The running cost is not written in this text, because it depends on the state average residential gas price. That price is not part of the registry data for RG250R*N. The cost calculator on your own ZIP applies your rate to the 264 therms figure. The page on how the annual cost is calculated explains how the registry's UEF and the DOE daily draw are combined. The installed price range appears in its own block on this page. It is a modeled range, not a quote.
