HUBBELL ME120

The 5,452 kWh figure is computed by this site, not by the registry. It combines the registry's UEF, the ratio of hot water delivered to energy used, of 0.91 with the DOE test's daily hot-water draw for the high draw pattern. The source is DOE CCD, retrieved 2026-09-19. Among the 21 models registered as an electric tank your utility can shift to off-peak hours, this one ranks 13th lowest for energy use. Its figure is 60 kWh above the class median of 5,392 kWh, which puts it in the second-highest quarter of its class. The calculation steps are set out in how the annual cost is calculated.

The model has a first hour rating, the gallons of hot water available in the first hour from a full tank, of 100 gallons, and a rated volume of 107 gallons. Those ratings fit the high draw pattern, which describes a larger household, or one where showers and laundry overlap. It suits a reader who needs that capacity and is checking the energy figure against the registry. It does not suit a reader looking for the lowest energy use in the class, because 13th lowest of 21 sits above the median. The 5,452 kWh applies only at the federal test's draw; use at any other draw is not available here. To compare other sizes or fuels, use the water heater selector, or find a same-class replacement by model number.

The running cost is not stated in the text, because it depends on your own utility electricity tariff. The energy figure of 5,452 kWh is the input, and the cost calculator on your own ZIP applies your rate to it. Any cost from that calculator holds only at the high draw pattern and a UEF of 0.91. The installed price range is not published for this model. Its ratings, a first hour rating of 100 gallons and a rated volume of 107 gallons, lie outside the range the cost database's model was fitted on, and the range is not stretched past it. Nothing on this page estimates an installed price.
