BRADFORD WHITE RG2PV40T*N19

The registry lists this model at a UEF of 0.72, the ratio of hot water delivered to energy used. The annual figure of 235 therms is not published by the registry. This site computed it from that UEF and the DOE test's daily hot-water draw for the high draw pattern, so it applies only under that condition. The source is DOE CCD, retrieved 2026-09-19. Among the 414 models registered as a gas tank at the high draw pattern, the class median is 260 therms, which puts this model 25 therms below it. It ranks 50th lowest in energy use of 414, in the lowest quarter of its class. The calculation method shows how the site derives the figure.

The high draw pattern describes a larger household, or one where showers and laundry overlap. The registry gives this tank a first hour rating, the gallons of hot water available in the first hour from a full tank, of 78 gallons, with a rated volume of 38 gallons. Those values are the registry's own, and this page does not judge whether they cover a particular household's busiest hour. The figure of 235 therms does not carry over to a smaller household or to a different draw pattern. Energy use under other draw patterns is not available on this page. A reader comparing fuel, space and size can use the water heater selector.

Running cost is not stated in the text because it depends on the state average residential gas price. The 235 therms of natural gas is the fixed part of that calculation. Enter a ZIP in the cost calculator to apply the rate that fits you to this model's therms. Until a rate is applied, the gap of 25 therms to the class median of 260 therms is a difference in therms, not in cost. The modeled installed-cost range appears in its own block on the page, with its source and date, and it is not a quote. To compare with another unit in the same class, find a replacement by model number.
