ENERGY FACTOR

Energy Factor (EF) is an overall efficiency rating of the water heater. The higher the EF, the more efficient the model. Water heaters with high EF ratings may cost more initially but save energy and money in the long run. Eventually, they will pay for themselves through a lifetime of energy savings.

Water heaters listed in the energy factor ratings include:

Electric storage water heaters with energy input ratings of 12 kilowatts or less and with a storage capacity of not less than 20 gallons no more than 120 gallons

Gas storage water heaters with energy input ratings of 75,000 Btu's per hour or less and with a storage capacity of not less than 20 gallons nor more than 100 gallons

Gas instantaneous water heaters with input ratings greater than 50,000 Btu's per hour but less than 200,000 Btu's per hour designed to deliver water at a controlled temperature of less than 180?°F

First Hour Rating

Another important factor in choosing a water heater, the 1st Hour Rating is an indicator of how much hot water a particular model can provide. The rating, in gallons of usable (desired temperature) hot water is reached by combining the amount of usable hot water stored in the tank plus how many gallons of usable hot water the water heater can generate in one hour of operation. For example, if a 40-gallon natural gas water heater will store 31 gallons of usable hot water and can deliver 41 gallons of usable hot water in the first hour, it’s 1st Hour Rating is 72 gallons. 1st Hour Ratings are included in the Energy Factor charts.
