Richmond PROE47 S2 RH CG
0.92 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 PROE47 S2 RH CG, it uses 3,531 kWh of electricity a year at the medium draw pattern, the standard daily hot-water usage DOE tests against. That equals its class median of 3,531 kWh, a difference of 0 kWh, among the 426 electric tank models registered at the same draw pattern.
Energy use per year
3,531 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 3,531 kWh for the 426 models registered in the same heater type and draw pattern; it ranks 213 of 426, lowest energy first.
Solid line: this model (3,531 kWh). Dashed line: the class median.

This site calculated the 3,531 kWh figure. The registry does not publish it. It combines the registry's UEF, the ratio of hot water delivered to energy used, with the daily hot-water draw that the DOE test sets for the medium draw pattern. This model's UEF is 0.92, and its fuel is electricity. The medium pattern stands for a typical household of moderate size with a busy morning. The registry record comes from the DOE CCD, retrieved 2026-09-19. If your household uses more or less hot water than the test assumes, your yearly use will differ from 3,531 kWh. This page does not have data on how large that difference would be. The steps behind the energy and cost calculation are set out on a separate page.
For a plumber or seller checking fit, the capacity figures matter along with the energy figure. This unit has a rated volume of 43 gallons. Its first hour rating, the gallons of hot water available in the first hour from a full tank, is 54 gallons. It fits a household whose busiest hour stays within 54 gallons of hot water. It does not fit a household whose peak hour needs more than that. This page has no energy figure for this model at a heavier draw pattern. Its rank of 213th lowest energy use of 426 matches its 0 kWh difference from the class median. To compare other units at the same draw pattern, use the same-class replacement search by model number or the selector by fuel, space and size.
This text does not state the running cost, because it depends on your own utility's electricity tariff. The cost calculator for your ZIP works it out from the 3,531 kWh figure at the medium draw pattern. At the same tariff, this model and a model at the class median of 3,531 kWh would show the same yearly cost. That follows from their equal energy use at the test draw. A household with a heavier draw would use more energy than 3,531 kWh. The amount of that extra use is not available here. The installed price shown elsewhere on this page is a modeled range with its own source and date. It is not a quote, and it does not include the running cost.
