STATE T-H3S-DV-N 1**

0.95 UEF DOE CCD · 2026-09-19
B

Grade B: where this UEF sits among the 397 models in its class, lowest (G) to highest (A). A position, not an official label. How the grade is set

A gas tankless unit, high draw pattern (a larger household, or one where showers and laundry overlap).

If you are checking the STATE T-H3S-DV-N 1**, this gas tankless unit uses 178 therms of natural gas a year. That figure applies to the high draw pattern, the standard daily hot-water usage DOE tests against. It sits 4 therms below the 182 therms median of the 397 gas tankless models registered at that draw pattern.


Energy use per year

178 therms 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 natural gas rate where you live.

That is below the median of 182 therms for the 397 models registered in the same heater type and draw pattern; it ranks 45 of 397, lowest energy first.

This model: 178 therms

What these figures mean

This site calculated the 178 therms figure; the registry does not list it. The calculation 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 high pattern. For this model the UEF is 0.95, from DOE CCD data retrieved 2026-09-19. On that basis it ranks 45th lowest in energy use of the 397 models in its class. That places it in the lowest quarter of the class for energy use. Your household may use more or less hot water than the test assumes, so your own gas use can differ from this figure. The page on how this site calculates annual energy use and running cost sets out each step.

The high draw pattern stands for a larger household, or one where showers and laundry overlap. The registry lists a maximum flow rate in gallons per minute of 5.4 for this model. Whether that flow covers fixtures running at the same time depends on their own flow rates, and this page does not have that data. The 178 therms figure does not describe a home that uses less hot water than the high draw pattern. This page does not have this model's gas use at a lower draw. The 4 therms gap to the class median also applies only at the test's draw. To compare other units, the water heater selector by fuel, space and size filters the registry that way. To match this unit within its class, use the same-class replacement search by model number.

The text of this page does not state a running cost. The cost of 178 therms of natural gas a year depends on your state's average residential gas price. For that reason, the page calculates the cost from your ZIP. Readers in different states will see different costs for the same 178 therms. That cost still assumes the high draw pattern described above. A household that uses a different amount of hot water will use a different amount of gas. To check other ZIPs, use the cost calculator on your own ZIP. The installed-price range has its own block on this page, with its source and date. It is a modeled range, not a quote.
