JETGLAS URG2PDV50H*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 the JETGLAS URG2PDV50H*N? This gas tank water heater uses 249 therms of natural gas a year. The figure applies to the high draw pattern, the standard daily hot-water usage DOE tests against. It sits 11 therms below the 260 therms median of the 414 gas tank models registered at that pattern.


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.

What these figures mean

The 249 therms figure is calculated by this site. The registry does not list it. It combines the registered UEF, the ratio of hot water delivered to energy used, with the daily hot-water draw that the DOE test uses for the high draw pattern. This model's UEF is 0.68. The source is the DOE CCD, retrieved 2026-09-19. Among the 414 gas tank models at the high draw pattern, this one ranks 164th lowest in energy use. That puts it in the second-lowest quarter of its class for energy use. The calculation steps are set out on the page explaining how the annual cost is calculated.

The high draw pattern describes a larger household, or one where showers and laundry overlap. This model's first hour rating, the gallons of hot water available in the first hour from a full tank, is 82 gallons. Its rated volume is 46 gallons. Both values describe capacity under the federal test's conditions, not in any particular home. The 249 therms figure assumes the high draw pattern's daily use. For a household that uses less hot water, this data gives no annual energy figure. To compare other units, use the water heater selector by fuel, space and size. To match an existing unit, find a same-class replacement by model number.

The running cost is not written in this text. The cost of 249 therms of natural gas depends on your state's average residential gas price, so the page calculates it from your ZIP code. Enter your ZIP in the cost calculator for your own ZIP to see the figure at your rate. At any single gas price, this model's cost stays below the cost of a class-median model, because it uses 11 therms less gas than the 260 therms median. The size of that cost gap depends on your rate, so it is not given here. The installed price range has its own block on this page, with its source and date. That range is a modeled installed cost, not a quote.
