Vancepic VH12KG-C-LPG

This site computed the 206 therms figure; the registry does not publish it. It starts from the registry's UEF, the ratio of hot water delivered to energy used, which is 0.82 for this model. That rating is applied to the DOE test's daily hot-water draw for the high draw pattern. The rating comes from the DOE CCD, retrieved 2026-09-19. The result therefore describes gas use at the federal test's draw only. A home that draws more or less hot water each day will use a different amount of gas. The page on how the annual energy and cost figures are calculated sets out each input and the order in which they are combined.

The high draw pattern stands for a larger household, or one where showers and laundry overlap. For a household whose daily use matches that test draw, 206 therms is the gas use the rating implies. The VH12KG-C-LPG lists a maximum flow rate in gallons per minute of 5.1, as recorded in the registry. For a smaller household, the 206 therms figure does not describe its use. This page has no figure for a lower draw pattern, so that value is not available here. Within its class of 397 models, the 229th rank reflects energy use at the high draw pattern only. It says nothing about flow rate or installed cost.

This text gives no running cost, because it depends on the reader's state average residential gas price. The page computes that cost from the reader's ZIP, using the same 206 therms of natural gas a year. The cost calculator for your own ZIP shows the result. The 24 therms gap to the class median is also priced at that local rate, so what the gap costs differs by state. The installed price range appears in its own block with its source and date. It is a modeled installed-cost range, not a quote. To check other models in the same class, use the tool to find a same-class replacement by model number.
