JETGLAS RG250H*N

0.63 UEF DOE CCD · 2026-09-19
G

Grade G: 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).

If you are checking this unit's rating, the JETGLAS RG250H*N, a gas tank water heater, uses 269 therms of natural gas a year. That figure belongs to the high draw pattern, the standard daily hot-water usage DOE tests against. It sits 9 therms above its class median of 260 therms.


Energy use per year

269 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 above the median of 260 therms for the 414 models registered in the same heater type and draw pattern; it ranks 320 of 414, lowest energy first.

This model: 269 therms

Solid line: this model (269 therms). Dashed line: the class median.

Safety record

No CPSC recall names this model.

Checked against the CPSC recall database. CPSC does not publish a model-level match for this product category, so this list is curated by hand from the manufacturer's recall filings.

What these figures mean

The annual figure above 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, with the DOE test's daily hot-water draw for the high draw pattern. For this model the UEF is 0.63, as listed in the DOE CCD, retrieved 2026-09-19. The methodology page explains how the annual cost is calculated from that figure. This site compares it with the 414 models registered as a gas tank at the high draw pattern. Among them, this one ranks 320th lowest in energy use. That places it in the highest quarter of its class for energy use. Your own yearly use will differ if your household draws more or less hot water than the test day.

The high draw pattern describes a larger household, or one where showers and laundry overlap. This unit's first hour rating, the gallons of hot water available in the first hour from a full tank, is 106 gallons. Its rated volume is 46 gallons. Those figures and the energy rating all belong to that heavier test day. For a smaller household with lighter use, the registry gives no energy figure for this unit, so that use is not available here. If lower gas use within this class matters to you, its rank of 320th lowest means most registered models in the class use less energy. To compare them, you can find a same-class replacement by model number or use the selector by fuel, space and size.

The running cost is not stated in this text. It depends on your state's average residential gas price, so the page computes it from your ZIP rather than estimating it. Enter your ZIP in the cost calculator on your own ZIP to see what the rated yearly gas use of 269 therms costs at your rate. The same rate decides what the 9 therms gap to the class median is worth to you. That amount is not available until your rate is known. The installed price is shown in its own block, with its source and date. It is a modeled installed-cost range, not a quote from an installer. Neither figure reflects your household's actual hot-water draw, which remains unknown to this page.
