STATE MHE6-40R-045D 1**

0.95 UEF DOE CCD · 2026-09-19
G

Grade 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 STATE MHE6-40R-045D 1**, this electric tank uses 3,419 kWh of electricity a year. That figure applies to the medium draw pattern, the standard daily hot-water usage DOE tests against. It is 112 kWh below the 3,531 kWh median of the 426 electric tank models registered at the same draw pattern.


Energy use per year

3,419 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 133 of 426, lowest energy first.

This model: 3,419 kWh

Solid line: this model (3,419 kWh). Dashed line: the class median.

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.

What these figures mean

This site calculated the 3,419 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 0.95. The registry data comes from the DOE Compliance Certification Database, retrieved 2026-09-19. The figure holds only at that test draw. A household that uses more or less hot water than the test assumes will use a different amount of electricity. That amount is not available here. The page explains how the annual cost is calculated from this energy figure.

The rated volume is 36 gallons. The first hour rating, the gallons of hot water available in the first hour from a full tank, is 54 gallons. DOE tests this model at the medium draw pattern, which represents typical daily household use. The 3,419 kWh figure describes a household whose use matches that pattern. If your household needs more hot water in a peak hour than 54 gallons, the figure does not describe your use. This page has no energy figure for a heavier draw. To compare heaters by fuel, space and size, use the water heater selector. To match this model number to another model in the same class, use the same-class replacement search.

Among the 426 models registered as an electric tank at the medium draw pattern, this model has the 133rd lowest energy use. The gap to the class median, stated above, and this rank both apply only at the medium draw pattern. They also apply only within this class. This text does not state the running cost, because it depends on your own utility's electricity tariff. The page calculates it from your ZIP with the cost calculator for your own ZIP. The installed-price range appears in its own block on this page, with its source and date. That range is modeled and is not a quote.
