The 5,334 kWh figure is computed by this site. It is not taken from the registry. It combines the registry's UEF, the ratio of hot water delivered to energy used, with the DOE test's daily hot-water draw for the high draw pattern. For this model the UEF is 0.93, and the registry lists it as an electric tank with a rated volume of 50 gallons. The figure holds only at that federal test draw. A household that draws more or less hot water each day will use a different amount, and this page does not estimate that amount. The underlying data comes from DOE CCD, retrieved 2026-09-19. The steps are set out in how this site calculates annual energy and cost.

The high draw pattern stands for a larger household, or one where showers and laundry overlap. For that use, the registry gives a first hour rating, the gallons of hot water available in the first hour from a full tank, of 76 gallons. The rank given above places this model in the highest quarter of its class for energy use. These figures do not describe a household with a smaller daily draw. Energy use at other draw patterns is not available here. To look up other models in the same class, use the same-class replacement search by model number.

The running cost is not stated in this text. It depends on your own utility's electricity tariff, so the page calculates it from your ZIP rather than from an assumed rate. The calculation applies your rate per kWh to the 5,334 kWh at the high draw pattern. Your rate also sets the cost gap to the class median, which is the 4,028 kWh difference noted above multiplied by that rate. You can run it in the water heater cost calculator for your ZIP. The installed price appears in its own block with its source and date. It is a modeled range, not a quote. This page does not know the cost at any daily draw other than the federal test's.
