KWICKSHOT TEF080V277
0.96 UEF DOE CCD · 2026-09-19Grade E: where this UEF sits among the 271 models in its class, lowest (G) to highest (A). A position, not an official label. How the grade is set
An electric tankless unit, very small draw pattern (small units - a single bathroom, or a point-of-use heater under a sink).
If you are checking the KWICKSHOT TEF080V277, the registry-based figure is 615 kWh of electricity a year. That figure belongs to the very small draw pattern, the standard daily hot-water usage DOE tests against. The class median is 615 kWh, so this unit sits 0 kWh from the median.
Energy use per year
615 kWh 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 electricity rate where you live.
That is equal to the median of 615 kWh for the 271 models registered in the same heater type and draw pattern; it ranks 77 of 271, lowest energy first.
Solid line: this model (615 kWh). Dashed line: the class median.

This site computes the 615 kWh figure; the registry does not publish it. It combines the registry's UEF, the ratio of hot water delivered to energy used, with the DOE test's daily hot-water draw. The registry lists this model at a UEF of 0.96. The source is DOE CCD, retrieved 2026-09-19. The figure describes electricity only, because this unit uses electricity as its fuel. It is a modeled value, not a metered reading from a home. The figure holds only for the very small draw pattern. Read how the annual cost is calculated for the method.
The class has 271 models registered as an electric tankless unit at the very small draw pattern. This one has the 77th lowest energy use of 271. That places it in the second-lowest quarter of its class for energy use. Its 615 kWh equals the class median of 615 kWh, a difference of 0 kWh. The registry lists a maximum flow rate in gallons per minute of 0.8. That fits small units, such as a single bathroom or a point-of-use heater under a sink. The data on this page do not cover larger draw patterns, so the figure says nothing about them.
Running cost depends on your own utility electricity tariff, so this text states none. The 615 kWh figure is the quantity to multiply by your rate per kilowatt-hour. The cost calculator on your own ZIP does that calculation for you. The installed price range is shown in its own block with its source and date. It is a modeled installed-cost range, not a quote. To compare against a same-class unit, find a replacement by model number starting from TEF080V277. A different load calls for a different draw pattern, and the selector by fuel, space and size covers that. Any comparison should hold the draw pattern at very small, because 615 kWh does not transfer to other draw patterns.
