U.S. CRAFTMASTER GCR-40 410

The registry does not publish the 264 therms figure. This site calculated it from two inputs. The first is the registry's UEF, the ratio of hot water delivered to energy used. The second is the DOE test's daily hot-water draw for the high draw pattern. This model's UEF is 0.64. The source is the DOE CCD, retrieved 2026-09-19. Among the 414 gas tank models at the high draw pattern, this model ranks 236th for lowest energy use. The steps behind the annual figure are explained in how this site calculates the annual energy and cost figures.

The high draw pattern represents a larger household, or one where showers and laundry overlap. For that pattern, this tank's first hour rating, the gallons of hot water available in the first hour from a full tank, is 80 gallons. Its rated volume is 38 gallons. A household that uses more or less hot water than the DOE test will not use 264 therms a year. This data cannot tell you that household's actual use. This page has no figure for other draw patterns either. To check this unit against models in the same class, use the same-class replacement finder by model number.

This text does not state a running cost. The cost depends on your state's average residential gas price, so the page calculates it from your ZIP. That also applies to the 4 therms a year this model uses above its class median: what that difference costs depends on your rate. You can run both through the cost calculator for your own ZIP. The installed price range is shown in its own block, with its source and date. It is a modeled installed-cost range, not a quote. Neither figure changes the calculated energy use at the test's draw, which is 264 therms for the high draw pattern.
