JETGLAS RG2PDV50S*N

0.68 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 water heater? The JETGLAS RG2PDV50S*N uses 249 therms of natural gas a year at the high draw pattern. Draw pattern here is the standard daily hot-water usage DOE tests against. That figure is 11 therms below the class median of 260 therms among 414 gas tank models.


Energy use per year

249 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 164 of 414, lowest energy first.

This model: 249 therms

Solid line: this model (249 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 figure of 249 therms is computed by this site, not read from the registry. It uses the registry's UEF, the ratio of hot water delivered to energy used, which is 0.68 for this model. It also uses the DOE test's daily hot-water draw for the high draw pattern. The registry data comes from DOE CCD, retrieved 2026-09-19. The figure describes the federal test's daily draw only, under the high draw pattern. Your household's real use may differ, and this page has no data on by how much. The method for calculating the annual cost is described on the methodology page.

Among the 414 gas tank models at the high draw pattern, this model ranks 164th lowest for energy use. That places it in the second-lowest quarter of its class, 11 therms below the median of 260 therms. The high draw pattern describes a larger household, or one where showers and laundry overlap. The first hour rating, the gallons of hot water available in the first hour from a full tank, is 80 gallons. The rated volume is 48 gallons. The energy figure applies to a household that matches that draw pattern. A household with lower daily hot-water use falls outside the condition of the figure, and this page does not estimate its energy use. The selector by fuel, space and size can narrow other options.

The running cost is not stated in this text. It depends on your state's average residential gas price. The page computes it from your ZIP, and this site does not estimate it here. The cost calculator for your own ZIP applies that price to 249 therms at the high draw pattern. If the gas price changes, the cost changes, while 249 therms stays the same under that draw pattern. The installed price appears in its own block as a modeled installed-cost range, with its source and date. It is a modeled range, not a quote. To compare a same-class unit, find a replacement by model number. Then check it against the class median of 260 therms.
