0.92 UEF DOE CCD · 2026-09-19Grade G: where this UEF sits among the 163 models in its class, lowest (G) to highest (A). A position, not an official label. How the grade is set
An electric tank, low draw pattern (a one- or two-person household).
The Richmond PROE28 S2 RH95 uses 2,439 kWh a year at the low draw pattern, the standard daily hot-water usage DOE tests against. For anyone verifying this model, that figure is equal to its class median of 2,439 kWh across 163 electric tank models.
Energy use per year
2,439 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 2,439 kWh for the 163 models registered in the same heater type and draw pattern; it ranks 19 of 163, lowest energy first.
Solid line: this model (2,439 kWh). Dashed line: the class median.

What it costs to install
Not published: Installed cost range
This model's rated tank size lies outside the range NLR REMDB's cost model was fitted on, and the range is not stretched past it.
The annual energy figure on this page does not depend on this range and is unaffected.
Safety record
No CPSC recall names this model.
Checked against the CPSC recall database. CPSC does not publish a model-level match for this product category, so this list is curated by hand from the manufacturer's recall filings.

The 2,439 kWh figure is computed by this site, not published by the registry. It combines the registry's UEF, the ratio of hot water delivered to energy used, with the DOE test's daily draw. For this model the UEF is 0.92, and the draw is the one set for the low draw pattern. The inputs come from the DOE CCD, retrieved 2026-09-19. At a heavier daily draw than the test's, the yearly energy use would differ, and that figure is not available here. Each step is set out in how this site calculates annual energy and running cost.
The low draw pattern corresponds to a one- or two-person household, so the 2,439 kWh figure applies to that usage level. Its first hour rating, the gallons of hot water available in the first hour from a full tank, is 45 gallons. The rated volume is 25 gallons. Among the 163 electric tank models at the low draw pattern, it ranks 19th lowest for energy use. That places it in the lowest quarter of its class for energy use. A household that regularly draws more hot water than the low pattern assumes is outside what this figure describes. To compare other sizes or fuels, use the water heater selector by fuel, space and size.
The running cost is not written on this page, because it depends on your own utility's electricity tariff. The page computes it from your ZIP, applying your rate to the 2,439 kWh yearly use. You can run that calculation in the water heater running cost calculator for your ZIP. An installed price range is not published for this model. Its ratings lie outside the range the cost database's model was fitted on, and the range is not stretched past it. To match it with another electric tank at the low draw pattern, use the same-class replacement search by model number.
