Ruud PROE28 S2 RH95
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).
If you are checking this Ruud PROE28 S2 RH95, an electric tank, it uses 2,439 kWh of electricity a year at the low draw pattern, the standard daily hot-water usage DOE tests against. That equals its class median of 2,439 kWh, a difference of 0 kWh, and ranks 19th lowest of 163 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 figure of 2,439 kWh is computed by this site, not by the registry. It combines the registry's UEF, the ratio of hot water delivered to energy used, of 0.92 with the DOE test's daily hot-water draw for the low draw pattern. The source is DOE CCD, retrieved 2026-09-19. The figure describes electricity use under test conditions only. A household that draws more or less hot water than the test will use a different amount, and this page has no data on that. The rated volume is 25 gallons. The calculation steps are set out under how the annual cost is calculated.
The class is the 163 models registered as an electric tank at the low draw pattern. Its median is 2,439 kWh, so this model differs from it by 0 kWh. The model is listed 19th lowest of 163, which places it in the lowest quarter of its class for energy use. The data does not say how many models share the same figure, so the rank among equal values is not explained here. Energy use is the only thing compared. The first hour rating, the gallons of hot water available in the first hour from a full tank, is 45 gallons, and that is the figure to set against a household's peak demand. A selector by fuel, space and size covers that comparison.
The 2,439 kWh applies to a household whose hot-water use matches the low draw pattern. A household with higher demand should not read it as its own use. The running cost is not stated here because it depends on your utility electricity tariff, and this page does not estimate it. The cost calculator on your own ZIP applies your rate to 2,439 kWh. An installed price range is not published for PROE28 S2 RH95: its ratings lie outside the range the cost database's model was fitted on, and that range is not stretched past its limit. To compare against similar units, you can find a same-class replacement by model number.
