U.S. CRAFTMASTER HPTU-80N 1**

3.45 UEF DOE CCD · 2026-09-19
C

Grade C: where this UEF sits among the 194 models in its class, lowest (G) to highest (A). A position, not an official label. How the grade is set

An electric tank, high draw pattern (a larger household, or one where showers and laundry overlap).

For a larger household, or one where showers and laundry overlap, U.S. CRAFTMASTER HPTU-80N 1** uses 1,438 kWh of electricity a year at the high draw pattern, the standard daily hot-water usage DOE tests against. That is 132 kWh above the class median of 1,306 kWh, across 194 electric tank models.


Energy use per year

1,438 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 1,306 kWh for the 194 models registered in the same heater type and draw pattern; it ranks 135 of 194, lowest energy first.

This model: 1,438 kWh

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.

What these figures mean

The figure of 1,438 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 3.45 with the daily hot-water draw that the DOE test assigns to the high draw pattern. The fuel is electricity, and the source is DOE CCD, retrieved 2026-09-19. The number describes the federal test's daily draw only. A household that uses more or less hot water than that draw will see a different total. The steps behind the calculation are set out in how the annual cost is calculated.

Against the 194 models registered as an electric tank at the high draw pattern, this unit ranks 135th lowest energy use of 194. That places it in the second-highest quarter of its class for energy use, with 1,438 kWh against a median of 1,306 kWh. A reader who ranks models by energy use alone will therefore find it above the middle of the class by 132 kWh. The registry also lists a first hour rating, the gallons of hot water available in the first hour from a full tank, of 86 gallons, and a rated volume of 82 gallons. Whether that covers a particular household's busiest hour is not established by this data. The water heater selector filters by fuel, space and size.

The running cost is not stated here, because it depends on the utility electricity tariff at the reader's own address. Multiplying 1,438 kWh by the local rate per kilowatt-hour gives the yearly cost under the test's draw. The cost calculator does this from a ZIP code. An installed price range is not published for this model. Its ratings lie outside the range the cost database's model was fitted on, and the range is not stretched past it.
