ECO-AIR HPWH-50G
3.75 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 ECO-AIR HPWH-50G, this site computes 866 kWh of electricity a year for it. That figure is at the medium draw pattern, the standard daily hot-water usage DOE tests against. It sits 2,665 kWh below the 3,531 kWh median for the 426 electric tank models registered at the same draw pattern.
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.
Solid line: this model (866 kWh). Dashed line: the class median.

The registry does not print the 866 kWh figure. This site computed it from the registry's UEF, the ratio of hot water delivered to energy used. It also uses the DOE test's daily hot-water draw for the medium draw pattern. For this model the UEF is 3.75, taken from the DOE CCD as retrieved on 2026-09-19. The result holds only at the federal test's daily draw. A household that uses more or less hot water each day will use a different amount of energy, and this page cannot say how much. The figure covers electricity only, because this unit is an electric tank. For each step of the calculation, see how this site calculates annual energy and cost.
Among the 426 electric tank models registered at the medium draw pattern, this one ranks 21st lowest in annual energy use. At 866 kWh, it sits 2,665 kWh below the class median of 3,531 kWh. That comparison fits households whose daily hot-water use is close to the medium draw pattern. Its first hour rating, the gallons of hot water available in the first hour from a full tank, is 69 gallons. Its rated volume is 47 gallons. A plumber or seller checking a quote can match these registry values against the unit's nameplate. To look up other models in the same class by model number, use the same-class replacement finder.
The text gives no running cost for this model. The cost of 866 kWh a year depends on your own utility's electricity tariff. The page therefore works it out from your ZIP, using the same medium-draw energy figure. If your household often needs more than 69 gallons in its busiest hour, the medium-draw figure may not match your use. The 21st lowest ranking also applies only within the medium draw pattern, not to other draw patterns. The installed price range appears in its own block, with its source and date. It is a modeled range, not a quote. To work out the cost at your own rate, open the water heater cost calculator for your ZIP.
