HTP ELV055*2*****
0.94 UEF DOE CCD · 2026-09-19Grade G: where this UEF sits among the 194 models in its class, lowest (G) to highest (A). A position, not an official label. How the grade is set
An electric tank, high draw pattern (a larger household, or one where showers and laundry overlap).
If you are checking the yearly energy use of this electric tank, the HTP ELV055*2***** uses 5,278 kWh a year at the high draw pattern, the standard daily hot-water usage DOE tests against. That is 3,972 kWh above the class median of 1,306 kWh, and it ranks 172nd lowest of 194 models.
Energy use per year
5,278 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 above the median of 1,306 kWh for the 194 models registered in the same heater type and draw pattern; it ranks 172 of 194, lowest energy first.
Solid line: this model (5,278 kWh). Dashed line: the class median.

The annual figure is computed by this site, not by the registry. It starts from the registry's UEF, the ratio of hot water delivered to energy used. For the HTP ELV055*2***** that value is 0.94. The site combines it with the DOE test's daily hot-water draw for the high draw pattern. The result is 5,278 kWh of electricity a year, taken from DOE CCD data retrieved on 2026-09-19. The class is the 194 models registered as an electric tank at the high draw pattern, and its median is 1,306 kWh. This model sits 3,972 kWh above that median. Its rank of 172nd lowest of 194 places it in the highest quarter of its class for energy use. The figure describes the test's draw, not the draw in any particular home.
The high draw pattern describes a larger household, or one where showers and laundry overlap. The 5,278 kWh figure applies to that kind of use. For that situation, the first hour rating, the gallons of hot water available in the first hour from a full tank, is 77 gallons on a rated volume of 55 gallons. A household that draws less hot water than the test assumes would use less than the stated figure. The registry gives no value for that case, so it is not available here. A reader who needs low energy use within this class should note that this model is 3,972 kWh above the median, and that a rank of 172nd lowest of 194 is toward the high-use end of the class.
Running cost is not stated in the text because it depends on your own utility electricity tariff. The calculation multiplies 5,278 kWh by your rate per kilowatt-hour, and the cost calculator does this from your ZIP code. The methodology page explains how the annual cost is calculated. The installed price range appears in its own block with its source and date, as a modeled range and not a quote, so it is not repeated here. To compare this unit with another of the same class, find a same-class replacement by model number and set its annual energy against the class median of 1,306 kWh. This page has no measured consumption for your home, and that value is unknown.
