JETGLAS RG1PV50S*N19

0.69 UEF DOE CCD · 2026-09-19
F

Grade F: where this UEF sits among the 414 models in its class, lowest (G) to highest (A). A position, not an official label. How the grade is set

A gas tank, high draw pattern (a larger household, or one where showers and laundry overlap).

Checking this model for a larger household? The JETGLAS RG1PV50S*N19 gas tank uses 245 therms of natural gas a year at the high draw pattern, the standard daily hot-water usage DOE tests against. It is 15 therms below the class median of 260 therms and ranks 130th lowest of 414.


Energy use per year

245 therms 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 natural gas rate where you live.

That is below the median of 260 therms for the 414 models registered in the same heater type and draw pattern; it ranks 130 of 414, lowest energy first.

This model: 245 therms

Solid line: this model (245 therms). Dashed line: the class median.

What these figures mean

The figure of 245 therms is computed by this site, not published by the registry. It combines the registry's UEF, the ratio of hot water delivered to energy used, of 0.69 with the DOE test's daily hot-water draw for the high draw pattern. The result applies to natural gas at that draw only, and the source data was retrieved from DOE CCD on 2026-09-19. A household whose real hot-water use differs from the test draw will use a different amount, and this page holds no measurement of that. The derivation is described under how the annual cost is calculated.

The rank of 130th lowest among the 414 comparable models places this unit in the second-lowest quarter of its class for energy use. The gap to the median of 260 therms is 15 therms, measured in therms at the same draw, so it says nothing about hot-water capacity. Capacity is shown by the first hour rating, the gallons of hot water available in the first hour from a full tank. For this model it is 78 gallons, with a rated volume of 48 gallons. The high draw pattern describes a larger household, or one where showers and laundry overlap. Energy figures for lower draw patterns are not available for this model on this page. To compare other fuels, spaces and sizes, use the water heater selector.

The running cost is not written here because it depends on the state average residential gas price, which differs by reader. The 245 therms figure is the fixed input, and the price multiplies it. The same rate also sets what the 15 therms gap to the class median of 260 therms is worth, so that gap is not a cost figure. Enter your ZIP in the cost calculator to apply the price for your state. The modeled installed-cost range appears in its own block with its source and date, and it is a modeled range, not a quote. If you need a same-class replacement, search by model number starting from RG1PV50S*N19.
