Custom Comfort CCOHPWH50A

3.75 UEF DOE CCD · 2026-09-19
A

Grade 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 verifying the Custom Comfort CCOHPWH50A, this electric tank uses 866 kWh of electricity a year. That figure applies at the medium draw pattern, the standard daily hot-water usage DOE tests against. It sits 2,665 kWh below the class median of 3,531 kWh, ranking 21st lowest of 426 comparable models.


Energy use per year

866 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 21 of 426, lowest energy first.

What these figures mean

The 866 kWh figure is computed by this site; it does not come directly from the registry. It combines the registry's UEF, the ratio of hot water delivered to energy used, with the daily hot-water draw that DOE's test sets for the medium draw pattern. For this model the UEF is 3.75. The medium pattern represents a typical household with a busy morning. The registry data comes from the DOE Compliance Certification Database, retrieved 2026-09-19. The figure holds only at that test draw. A household that uses more or less hot water than the test assumes will use a different amount of energy. The class used for comparison is the 426 models registered as an electric tank at the same draw pattern. Our page on how the annual cost is calculated sets out the method.

The registry lists a rated volume of 47 gallons and a first hour rating, the gallons of hot water available in the first hour from a full tank, of 69 gallons. These figures, and the UEF of 3.75, fit a household whose daily use is close to the medium draw pattern. A household that needs more than 69 gallons in its busiest hour would be drawing beyond this rating. Heavier daily use also falls outside the medium pattern, so the 866 kWh figure would not describe that home's energy use. The registry does not record how any single household uses hot water, so that fit remains unknown here. To compare units on other terms, use the water heater selector by fuel, space and size. If you want a like-for-like swap, find a same-class replacement by model number.

Running cost is not stated in this text because it depends on your own utility's electricity tariff. The page's cost calculator for your own ZIP multiplies the 866 kWh figure by the rate for that area. The gap of 2,665 kWh against the class median scales with the same rate, so its value also depends on where you live. Both results assume the medium draw pattern; real use in a given home is not known to the registry. The installed price shown elsewhere on this page is a modeled installed-cost range, not a quote. Its source and date appear in its own block. This page does not assess the brand or judge reliability, because the registry holds no data on either.
