Rheem PROE40 T2 RH95
0.93 UEF DOE CCD · 2026-09-19Grade G: where this UEF sits among the 426 models in its class, lowest (G) to highest (A). A position, not an official label. How the grade is set
An electric tank, medium draw pattern (a typical three- or four-person household, about 55 gallons on a busy morning).
Checking this rating? The Rheem PROE40 T2 RH95 electric tank uses 3,493 kWh of electricity a year at the medium draw pattern, the standard daily hot-water usage DOE tests against. That is 38 kWh below the class median of 3,531 kWh, ranking 153rd lowest in energy use of 426 comparable models.

UEF 0.93 · Grade G Price it on your ZIP
The 3,493 kWh figure comes from a calculation on this site, not from the registry. 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 medium pattern. This model's UEF is 0.93, taken from the DOE Compliance Certification Database and retrieved 2026-09-19. The result holds only at that test draw. A household that uses more or less hot water will use a different amount of electricity. Among the 426 electric tanks registered at the medium pattern, this model sits 38 kWh a year below the class median. The steps behind the calculation are set out in how the annual energy and cost figures are calculated.
This model has a first hour rating, the gallons of hot water available in the first hour from a full tank, of 55 gallons. Its rated volume is 36 gallons. The medium draw pattern it was tested at represents a typical household's daily hot-water use. A home whose busiest hour needs no more than 55 gallons falls within what this rating describes. A home whose busiest hour needs more than that falls outside it. The annual figure here does not describe that home's use. Its rank of 153rd of 426 applies only within this class of electric tanks at the medium pattern. To compare it with other registered models in the same class, use the same-class replacement search by model number.
This text does not state a running cost. The cost of 3,493 kWh of electricity depends on your own utility tariff, and this text does not know that tariff. The page calculates the cost from your ZIP code and does not estimate it here. On any single tariff, the yearly difference from a median model in this class is the price of 38 kWh of electricity. That comparison holds only at the test draw, against the class median of 3,531 kWh. The installed price range appears in its own block on this page, with its source and date. It is a modeled range, not a quote. To see the yearly cost at your own rate, use the water heater cost calculator for your ZIP code.
