GE GE40T10BAM01

The 3,531 kWh figure is calculated by this site, not published by the registry. It combines the model's UEF, the ratio of hot water delivered to energy used, with the daily hot-water draw set by the DOE test for the medium pattern. This unit's UEF is 0.92, taken from DOE CCD records retrieved 2026-09-19. The medium pattern stands for a typical household's busy morning of hot-water use. A home that draws more or less hot water than the test day will use a different amount of electricity. How far that use would differ from 3,531 kWh is not available from the registry data. The steps behind the figure are set out in how the annual cost is calculated.

Among the 426 models registered as an electric tank at the medium draw pattern, this one ranks 213th lowest for energy use. That places it in the second-lowest quarter of its class, with a difference of 0 kWh from the median. The registry also lists a rated volume of 40 gallons for this model. It gives a first hour rating, the gallons of hot water available in the first hour from a full tank, of 65 gallons. These figures describe a household whose use matches the medium pattern. For a home with heavier use than that pattern, the 3,531 kWh figure does not describe its actual use. To check other units in the same class, use find a same-class replacement by model number or the water heater selector by fuel, space and size.

The running cost is not stated in this text, because it depends on your own utility's electricity tariff. The page computes it from 3,531 kWh and the rate for your ZIP code in the cost calculator on your own ZIP. That result still assumes the medium draw pattern, so it carries the same limit as the energy figure. No tariff is assumed anywhere in this text. The installed price range appears in its own block, with its source and date. It is a modeled installed-cost range, not a quote from an installer. This text does not restate those figures, and any price outside that block is not available here.
