FRIEDRICH PROE50 T2 RH95

0.93 UEF DOE CCD · 2026-09-19
G

Grade G: 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 FRIEDRICH PROE50 T2 RH95 against the registry, it uses 3,493 kWh of electricity a year. That figure applies at the medium draw pattern, the standard daily hot-water usage DOE tests against. It sits 38 kWh below the class median of 3,531 kWh, ranking 153rd lowest of 426 medium-pattern electric tanks.


Energy use per year

3,493 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 153 of 426, lowest energy first.

Safety record

No CPSC recall names this model.

Checked against the CPSC recall database. CPSC does not publish a model-level match for this product category, so this list is curated by hand from the manufacturer's recall filings.

What these figures mean

The 3,493 kWh figure is computed by this site; the registry does not publish it. It combines the model's UEF, the ratio of hot water delivered to energy used, with the DOE test's daily hot-water draw for the medium pattern. The registry lists a UEF of 0.93 for this unit, taken from the DOE Compliance Certification Database (CCD) and retrieved 2026-09-19. The medium pattern stands for a typical family household with a busy morning peak. If your household uses more or less hot water than that pattern, your real consumption will differ. The registry does not show by how much. The full steps are described in how the annual cost is calculated.

Within its class, the FRIEDRICH PROE50 T2 RH95 ranks 153rd lowest in energy use among 426 electric tanks tested at the medium draw pattern. Its 3,493 kWh sits 38 kWh below the class median of 3,531 kWh, so some registered models in the class use less. Its first hour rating, the gallons of hot water available in the first hour from a full tank, is 63 gallons. The rated volume is 45 gallons. That suits households whose busiest hour stays within 63 gallons. It does not suit a household whose morning demand regularly exceeds that figure. Those readers can compare other sizes and fuels with the water heater selector by fuel, space and size.

This page gives no running cost in the text, because the cost of 3,493 kWh a year depends on your own utility's electricity tariff. The page computes that cost from your ZIP instead, and you can check it in the running cost calculator for your ZIP. The installed price shown in its own block is a modeled range with its source and date, not a quote. If you are verifying a like-for-like swap, you can find a same-class replacement by model number. Then compare that model's rank against 153rd of 426. The registry says nothing about performance outside the medium test draw, so that remains unknown here.
