Recovery Rates can be calculated at any Temperature Rise

Gas Water Heaters

All you need is the spec sheet or pocket catalog, and a calculator.

  1. Take the known GPH recovery and multiply by known temperature rise.
    - 145 x 100 = 14,500
  2. Then divide by your desired temperature rise (Ex. 80°F)
    - 14,500/80 =181.25
  3. The EF60T1253N will recover 181.25 GPH at an 80°F temperature rise.
    SIMPLE! This works with any product we have listed.

Electric Water Heaters
kW input will recover at the same rate, regardless of gallon capacity.
