Richmond PROE40 M2 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).
If you are checking the Richmond PROE40 M2 RH95, it uses 3,493 kWh of electricity a year. That figure is for the medium draw pattern, the standard daily hot-water usage DOE tests against. It sits 38 kWh below the class median of 3,531 kWh, ranking 153rd lowest of 426 electric tanks at that pattern.
Energy use per year
3,493 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 3,531 kWh for the 426 models registered in the same heater type and draw pattern; it ranks 153 of 426, lowest energy first.
Solid line: this model (3,493 kWh). Dashed line: the class median.

UEF 0.93 · Grade G Price it on your ZIP
The 3,493 kWh figure is computed by this site, not taken directly 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, and the source record is the DOE CCD, retrieved 2026-09-19. The annual figure holds only at that test draw. A home that draws more or less hot water will use a different amount, and that amount is not available here. The tank's registered rated volume is 36 gallons. Its first hour rating, the gallons of hot water available in the first hour from a full tank, is 55 gallons in the registry.
Among the 426 models registered as an electric tank at the medium draw pattern, the median is 3,531 kWh a year. The PROE40 M2 RH95 uses 38 kWh less than that at the test draw. Its rank of 153rd lowest energy use places it in the second-lowest quarter of its class. The medium pattern stands for a typical household with a busy morning of hot-water use. A household whose use matches that pattern is the case the 3,493 kWh figure describes. A household that needs more than the 55-gallon first hour rating at its peak falls outside the test condition. For that household, the figure on this page does not apply. To check other tanks at this draw, you can find a same-class replacement by model number.
The running cost is not stated here because it depends on your own utility's electricity tariff. The page computes it from your ZIP by applying your rate to the 3,493 kWh test-draw figure. You can check that result in the cost calculator on your own ZIP. The steps behind it are set out in how the annual cost is calculated. At the test draw, the gap to a median tank is 38 kWh a year, so its cost also depends on your rate. The installed price range appears in its own block with its source and date. That range is a modeled installed cost, not a quote.
