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).

You are checking the Westinghouse ET011, an electric tankless unit. It uses 628 kWh of electricity a year at the very small draw pattern, the standard daily hot-water usage DOE tests against. That is 13 kWh above the median of 615 kWh for its class.


Energy use per year

628 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 188 of 271, lowest energy first.

This model: 628 kWh

Solid line: this model (628 kWh). Dashed line: the class median.

What these figures mean

This site calculated the 628 kWh figure; it is not copied from the registry. It combines the registry's UEF, the ratio of hot water delivered to energy used, with the DOE test's daily hot-water draw. For this model the UEF is 0.94. The source is the DOE Compliance Certification Database (CCD), retrieved 2026-09-19. The very small draw pattern covers small units, such as those serving a single bathroom or a point-of-use heater under a sink. The figure applies only at that test draw. It does not describe a household that uses more hot water each day than the test assumes. See how the annual cost is calculated for how this figure becomes a yearly cost.

This model ranks 188th lowest in energy use of the 271 models registered as an electric tankless unit at the very small draw pattern. That rank puts it in the second-highest quarter of its class for energy use. Its 628 kWh sits 13 kWh above the class median of 615 kWh. The registry lists its maximum flow rate in gallons per minute as 1.2. The draw pattern's scope is one bathroom or a point-of-use heater under a sink. A plumber or seller confirming a listing can check the UEF, the flow rate and the draw pattern against the registry entry for ET011. To compare other models in the same class, use find a same-class replacement by model number.

The draw pattern also shows where the figure stops applying. A home that needs more hot water than one bathroom or one sink uses falls outside the very small draw pattern. The 628 kWh figure does not describe that home. Models tested at larger draw patterns belong to other classes, and the selector by fuel, space and size lists them. This text does not state a running cost, because that cost depends on your own utility's electricity tariff. The page calculates it from your ZIP. You can also run the cost calculator on your own ZIP. The installed price range on this page is a modeled range, not a quote.
