Rheem PRO+G50-65N RH62 PDV
0.65 UEF DOE CCD · 2026-09-19Grade G: 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).
If you are checking the Rheem PRO+G50-65N RH62 PDV, it uses 260 therms of natural gas a year. That figure applies to the high draw pattern, the standard daily hot-water usage DOE tests against. It is 0 therms from the median of the 414 gas tank models at that pattern, so its use equals the class median.
Energy use per year
260 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 equal to the median of 260 therms for the 414 models registered in the same heater type and draw pattern; it ranks 204 of 414, lowest energy first.
Solid line: this model (260 therms). Dashed line: the class median.

This site calculated the 260 therms 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 for the high draw pattern. This model's UEF is 0.65, taken from the DOE CCD on 2026-09-19. Among the 414 gas tank models at the high draw pattern, it has the 204th lowest energy use. That puts it in the second-lowest quarter of its class. The steps are set out on the page about how the annual cost is calculated. The figure holds only at the test's daily draw. A household using more or less hot water will use a different amount of gas, and that amount is not known from the registry.
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 111 gallons. Its rated volume is 48 gallons. The rating does not cover a home whose peak hour needs more than 111 gallons. For a smaller household with lighter use, the high draw pattern is the wrong basis. The 260 therms figure would then not describe that home's use. To check a model against a different fuel, space or household size, use the selector by fuel, space and size. To compare with another gas tank model at the same pattern, find a same-class replacement by model number.
The running cost is not given in this text. It depends on your state's average residential natural gas price, which is not in the registry data. Once you enter your ZIP, the page multiplies the 260 therms figure by that price in the cost calculator on your own ZIP. Without a ZIP, the page shows no cost and this text does not estimate one. The installed price range appears in its own block, with its source and date. That range is modeled, not a quote. The registry does not record your household's actual hot-water use. So how far your bill will differ from the cost at the test draw is unknown.
