0.98 UEF DOE CCD · 2026-09-19Grade D: 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 this listing, the KWICKSHOT TET083V208, an electric tankless unit, uses 603 kWh of electricity a year at the federal test's daily hot-water draw for the very small draw pattern. That is 12 kWh below the class median of 615 kWh, and it ranks 10th lowest in energy use.
Energy use per year
603 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 below the median of 615 kWh for the 271 models registered in the same heater type and draw pattern; it ranks 10 of 271, lowest energy first.
Solid line: this model (603 kWh). Dashed line: the class median.

The figure of 603 kWh is computed by this site, not by the registry. It starts from the registry's UEF, the ratio of hot water delivered to energy used. For this model the UEF is 0.98. It then applies the daily hot-water draw of the very small draw pattern, the standard daily hot-water usage DOE tests against. The figure is valid only under that condition. It is a modeled result, not a metered measurement. A household that draws more or less hot water than the test assumes will use a different amount of electricity. The source is DOE CCD, retrieved 2026-09-19.
The class has 271 models registered as an electric tankless unit at the very small draw pattern. This model sits 12 kWh below the class median of 615 kWh. It ranks 10th lowest in energy use, which places it in the lowest quarter of its class. The registry lists a maximum flow rate in gallons per minute of 0.7. Units in this draw pattern serve small loads, such as a single bathroom or a point-of-use heater under a sink. The figure does not describe a household with a larger daily draw. For a wider comparison by fuel, space and size, use the water heater selector.
The running cost is not stated in this text, because it depends on your own utility electricity tariff. Multiply 603 kWh by your rate per kWh to get a yearly figure. The cost calculator does this from your ZIP. The method for the annual cost is documented separately. The installed price range appears in its own block, with its source and date. It is a modeled installed-cost range, not a quote, and this text does not restate it. To look for another unit in the same class, find a same-class replacement by model number. Use at your own site is not available here, because 603 kWh applies only at the federal test's draw.
