KWICKSHOT TET080V277

The registry lists this electric tankless unit with a UEF, the ratio of hot water delivered to energy used, of 0.98. This site did not take the annual figure from the registry. It computed 603 kWh from that UEF and the daily hot-water draw the DOE test assumes for the very small draw pattern. The figure comes from DOE CCD data retrieved on 2026-09-19. It describes the test draw only, so it is not a measurement of any household's actual use. The comparison group is the 271 models registered as an electric tankless unit at the same draw pattern, whose median is 615 kWh.

The very small draw pattern covers small units: a single bathroom, or a point-of-use heater under a sink. This model's maximum flow rate in gallons per minute is 0.8. Its 603 kWh is 12 kWh below the class median, and its rank of 10th lowest of 271 places it in the lowest quarter of the class for energy use. That fits a reader whose hot-water need matches the test draw. It does not apply to a reader whose use is larger, because the data here has no energy figure for other draw patterns. To compare by fuel, space and size, use the water heater selector, or look up a same-class replacement by model number.

The running cost is not written here because it depends on your own utility electricity tariff, which the registry does not contain. Multiplying 603 kWh by your rate gives the cost at the test draw. The cost calculator does this from your ZIP, and the methodology page explains how the annual cost is calculated. The modeled installed-cost range appears in its own block on this page, with its source and date, as a modeled range and not a quote. Actual energy use will differ if your daily hot-water use differs from the federal test draw, and this data cannot say by how much.
