Folanzy WTE80P-025T

Rank #223 means 222 of the 519 dehumidifier models we track cost less to run each year; the 22nd efficiency percentile means it uses less energy for its size than 22% of those models.

What does the Folanzy WTE80P-025T cost to run per year?

Do the math and the Folanzy WTE80P-025T's $55/yr puts it at rank #223 of 519, right around the class average. Adjusted for size, it is only more efficient than 22% of dehumidifier models we track, so part of its running cost comes from its capacity rather than efficiency alone. The IEF figure of 1.7 on this model captures integrated energy factor, the main efficiency lever ENERGY STAR tracks for this class.

Immediately around it on the leaderboard, the Fehom JD025L-80 at $55/yr runs a little cheaper and the Jhs D025B-25Pt3 at $55/yr runs a little more, a sense of how tightly models are packed at this point in the ranking. A dehumidifier typically stays in service for somewhere around 8 years; over that span, the Folanzy WTE80P-025T's $55/yr adds up to roughly $440 in electricity alone, before purchase price or repairs.

What it costs you over time

Running cost is an every-year number, so it compounds. At $55/yr, here is what the Folanzy WTE80P-025T adds up to before purchase price, water, or repairs enter the math.

1 year$55
5 years$275
10 years$550

Left running for a decade at today's US average rate, the Folanzy WTE80P-025T costs about $550. That is roughly $90 less than the class median, which would run closer to $640 over the same ten years.

How the Folanzy WTE80P-025T compares

The dehumidifier class we track runs from $19 to $521 a year. At $55/yr, it runs about $9 a year cheaper than the class median of $64, and it is about $36 a year more than the cheapest dehumidifier to run at $19.

What drives its running cost

At 24.93 pints/day, the Folanzy WTE80P-025T is a mid-size dehumidifier for its class, which spans 1.91 to 172.13 pints/day with a median of 32.46 pints/day, right in the middle of the capacity range, so capacity is roughly a wash compared with the rest of the class. The IEF of 1.7 on this model, below the class median of 2.01, measures integrated energy factor; it is the number to compare directly against another model's IEF if capacity is similar.

  • Integrated Energy Factor (IEF). Two dehumidifiers rated for the same pints per day can carry very different IEF figures, and IEF is what actually separates their running costs.
  • Water removal capacity (pints/day). Pints-per-day rating scales with the space it is built for, and that rating is the first driver of how much power the compressor needs.
  • Humidistat accuracy. How tightly a humidistat holds its target humidity determines how much of the day the compressor actually runs, on top of the unit's rated capacity and IEF.

Common questions

Is the Folanzy WTE80P-025T cheap to run?

It is about average. At $55 a year it ranks #223 of 519 dehumidifier models we track, close to the middle of its class on running cost.

How much does the Folanzy WTE80P-025T cost per month?

Roughly $4.62/mo, spreading the $55/yr estimate evenly across twelve months at $0.1856/kWh. Actual monthly bills swing with your rate and usage pattern.

How is this running-cost figure calculated?

We take the model's published annual energy use of 299 kWh from ENERGY STAR and multiply it by the US average residential electricity rate of $0.1856/kWh, giving about $55 a year. It is an electricity-only estimate and does not include purchase price, water, or installation.

How efficient is the Folanzy WTE80P-025T for its size?

22nd percentile once size is factored in, a fairly typical result for the class.
