Energy Factor ... every hot water heater tankless or storage tank heater must be provided with a certified Energy Factor. This factor in simple terms means that if the Energy Factor is high then the annual cost of power to run the tanklless hot water heater or the storage heater will be lower than it would be for a low rated Energy Factor.

Gas tankless water heaters Energy Factors typically range from 0.64 to 0.82

First Hour Rating ... this number refers to the amount of hot water the heater can supply per hour ... if a storage tank system is in use the assumption is that the tank is full of hot water at the start of the first hour.
