ELIOS EROD180N0000

0.95 UEF DOE CCD · 2026-09-19
B

Grade B: where this UEF sits among the 397 models in its class, lowest (G) to highest (A). A position, not an official label. How the grade is set

A gas tankless unit, high draw pattern (a larger household, or one where showers and laundry overlap).

If you are checking the ELIOS EROD180N0000 against the registry, it uses 178 therms of natural gas a year at the high draw pattern, the standard daily hot-water usage DOE tests against. That is 4 therms below the class median of 182 therms across 397 gas tankless models at the same draw pattern.


Energy use per year

178 therms 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 natural gas rate where you live.

That is below the median of 182 therms for the 397 models registered in the same heater type and draw pattern; it ranks 45 of 397, lowest energy first.

What these figures mean

The registry lists a UEF, the ratio of hot water delivered to energy used, of 0.95 for the ELIOS EROD180N0000. This site derives the annual figure from that UEF and the DOE test's daily hot-water draw for the high draw pattern, which gives 178 therms of natural gas a year. The registry does not publish that annual figure itself; it comes from the DOE CCD entry retrieved on 2026-09-19 and from this site's calculation. Among the 397 models registered as a gas tankless unit at the high draw pattern, this unit has the 45th lowest energy use, which places it in the lowest quarter of its class. The class median is 182 therms, so this model sits 4 therms below it. The method behind the annual figure is documented separately.

The high draw pattern describes a larger household, or one where showers and laundry overlap, so the figure fits that kind of use. The registry also lists a maximum flow rate in gallons per minute of 5.2. This page has no data on how that flow rate relates to a particular household's simultaneous use. The figure does not describe a household whose hot-water use is well below the test's daily draw. For that household, yearly gas use would differ from 178 therms, and this page has no value for other draw patterns of this model. The class median of 182 therms is a reference for the same draw pattern only. To compare units by fuel, space and size, use the water heater selector.

The annual energy figure of 178 therms is a quantity of gas, not a cost. Running cost depends on your state's average residential gas price, so it is not stated in this text and is not estimated here. The cost calculator takes your ZIP and applies that state price to the annual energy of this model at the high draw pattern. The modeled installed-cost range appears in its own block on this page with its source and date. It is a modeled range, not a quote, and it is not restated in the text. If you are replacing a unit, you can find a same-class replacement by model number and compare its energy use with the 178 therms of EROD180N0000.
