Richmond PROPH65 T0 RH120-M
3.12 UEF DOE CCD · 2026-09-19Grade C: 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 the Richmond PROPH65 T0 RH120-M? This electric tank uses 1,041 kWh of electricity a year at the medium draw pattern, the standard daily hot-water usage DOE tests against. At that draw, it sits 2,490 kWh below its class median of 3,531 kWh. It ranks 112th lowest in energy use of 426 comparable models.
Energy use per year
1,041 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 112 of 426, lowest energy first.
Solid line: this model (1,041 kWh). Dashed line: the class median.

UEF 3.12 · Grade C Price it on your ZIP
This site computed the 1,041 kWh figure; the registry does not list it. The calculation takes the registered UEF, the ratio of hot water delivered to energy used, and applies the DOE test's daily hot-water draw for the medium pattern. The registry lists this model at a UEF of 3.12, in DOE CCD data retrieved 2026-09-19. The medium pattern represents a typical household of a few people on a busy morning. So the figure holds only at that test draw. A home that draws more hot water each day will use more electricity than 1,041 kWh, and a home that draws less will use less. The page on how the annual figure is calculated sets out each step.
The registry figures describe capacity as well as efficiency. The rated volume is 59 gallons. The first hour rating, the gallons of hot water available in the first hour from a full tank, is 63 gallons. A household whose busiest hour stays within 63 gallons is within what the registry rates this tank to deliver. A household that often needs more than 63 gallons in its peak hour is outside that rating. If a household's daily use differs from the medium draw pattern, the 1,041 kWh value does not describe it. To compare other units by fuel, space and size, use the water heater selector.
The 2,490 kWh gap below the class median of 3,531 kWh applies only within one class. That class is the 426 models registered as an electric tank at the medium draw pattern. Within it, this model ranks 112th lowest in energy use. This text does not give the running cost because it depends on your own utility's electricity tariff. The cost calculator for your ZIP works out the running cost from your local rate. 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 check a like-for-like swap, you can find a same-class replacement by model number.
