What does the Ukoke UDH0125 cost to run per year?

Out of the 519 dehumidifier models we track, the Ukoke UDH0125 lands at rank #3 on cost, roughly $19 a year, a standout figure at the cheap end of the class. Efficiency-wise, once size is accounted for, it trails most of the class, ahead of only 35% of the models we track. At a IEF of 1.92, its integrated energy factor is the single figure that best explains how it earns its running-cost number.

On the leaderboard, the Dr. Prepare DDH12LA at $19/yr runs a little more, the closest neighbor to its exact spot in the ranking. A dehumidifier typically stays in service for somewhere around 8 years; over that span, the Ukoke UDH0125's $19/yr adds up to roughly $152 in electricity alone, before purchase price or repairs. At rank #3 of 519, it is one of the single cheapest dehumidifier models we track to run, in the top one percent on cost.

What it costs you over time

Running cost is an every-year number, so it compounds. At $19/yr, here is what the Ukoke UDH0125 adds up to before purchase price, water, or repairs enter the math.

1 year$19
5 years$95
10 years$190

Left running for a decade at today's US average rate, the Ukoke UDH0125 costs about $190. That is roughly $450 less than the class median, which would run closer to $640 over the same ten years.

How the Ukoke UDH0125 compares

The dehumidifier class we track runs from $19 to $521 a year. At $19/yr, it runs about $45 a year cheaper than the class median of $64, and it is the cheapest dehumidifier to run in the class among the models we track.

What drives its running cost

At 9 pints/day, the Ukoke UDH0125 is a small dehumidifier for its class, which spans 1.91 to 172.13 pints/day with a median of 32.46 pints/day, and smaller dehumidifier models generally cost less to run for the same job, all else being equal. The IEF of 1.92 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). IEF measures liters of water removed per kilowatt-hour; a higher IEF means less energy per pint of moisture removed for a given capacity.
  • Water removal capacity (pints/day). A dehumidifier rated to remove more pints per day is built for a larger space or a more humid room, and generally draws more power to do it.
  • Humidistat accuracy. A unit with a more precise humidistat cycles the compressor off once the target humidity is reached, rather than running continuously.

Common questions

Is the Ukoke UDH0125 cheap to run?

Yes. Its $19/yr running cost puts it at rank #3 of 519, below what most dehumidifier models we track cost to run.

How much does the Ukoke UDH0125 cost per month?

About $1.62 a month, which is the $19 annual estimate spread across twelve months at the US average rate of $0.1856/kWh. Your own bill scales with your local electricity rate and how heavily you use it.

How is this running-cost figure calculated?

The formula is annual kWh times price per kWh: 105 kWh from ENERGY STAR times the US average of $0.1856/kWh comes to about $19 a year. It covers electricity only, not the purchase price, water, or installation.

How efficient is the Ukoke UDH0125 for its size?

35th percentile once size is factored in. That means its size-adjusted efficiency is not the main reason for the running-cost figure above; its capacity plays a large role too.
