STATE UPVA-30K 1**

0.93 UEF DOE CCD · 2026-09-19
F

Grade F: where this UEF sits among the 271 models in its class, lowest (G) to highest (A). A position, not an official label. How the grade is set

An electric tankless unit, very small draw pattern (small units - a single bathroom, or a point-of-use heater under a sink).

If you are checking this model's registry figures: the STATE UPVA-30K 1** uses 635 kWh of electricity a year. That figure belongs to the very small draw pattern, the standard daily hot-water usage DOE tests against. It sits 20 kWh above its class median of 615 kWh, ranking 218th lowest in energy use of 271.


Energy use per year

635 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 above the median of 615 kWh for the 271 models registered in the same heater type and draw pattern; it ranks 218 of 271, lowest energy first.

This model: 635 kWh

What these figures mean

The 635 kWh figure does not appear in the registry itself. This site calculated it from the registry's UEF, the ratio of hot water delivered to energy used. The other input is the DOE test's daily hot-water draw for the very small draw pattern. This model's UEF is 0.93. The registry values come from the DOE CCD, retrieved 2026-09-19. The result applies only to the federal test's daily draw, not to a measured household. Energy use at any other daily draw is not available in this data. A plumber or seller checking the figure can trace each step in how the annual cost is calculated.

The very small draw pattern covers small units, such as a heater for a single bathroom or a point-of-use heater under a sink. The registry lists a maximum flow rate in gallons per minute of 0.3 for this electric tankless unit. Its class is the 271 models registered as electric tankless units at this draw pattern. Within that class, it ranks 218th lowest in energy use. That puts it in the highest quarter of its class for energy use, 20 kWh above the 615 kWh median. This data does not show how the unit performs at draws larger than the very small pattern. If you want a unit nearer to or below that median, you can find a same-class replacement by model number.

This text does not state a running cost. The cost depends on your own utility's electricity tariff, so the page calculates it from your ZIP. You can repeat that step with the cost calculator on your own ZIP. Tariffs differ between utilities, so the same 635 kWh can produce a different yearly cost in each ZIP. At any single rate, this model's cost gap to a median unit in its class follows from the 20 kWh energy gap. The modeled installed-cost range appears in its own block on this page, with its source and date. That range is a model of installed cost, not a quote, and it is separate from the yearly energy figure.
