1.1 This Standard describes the test procedures required to perform a 24 h simulated use test. This Standard also provides the calculations required to determine the first-hour rating, recovery efficiency, standby loss, daily water heating energy consumption, energy factor, and annual energy consumption for gas-fired storage water heaters.

1.2 This Standard applies to gas-fired storage water heaters (a) with volumes not less than 20 US gal (76 L) nor more than 100 US gal (380 L); (b) having rated inputs of 75 000 Btu/h (21.98 kW) or less; and (c) designed to heat and store water at a thermostatically controlled temperature of less than 180 degrees F (82 degrees C).

1.3 The tests contained in this Standard provide a standardized method of comparing performance and efficiency.

1.4 This Standard is written in US Customary units. The SI (metric) values given in parentheses are for information only.
