How efficient are hOmeLabs dehumidifiers?

Of the 15 hOmeLabs dehumidifiers, 2 file a higher IEF than the class median, 2 match it and 11 fall below it.

hOmeLabs dehumidifiers against the median IEF (L/kWh) of their DOE class. DOE data as of 2026-11-03.
DOE class	hOmeLabs models	Above median	Class median	Best hOmeLabs
Portable dehumidifiers, 25 to 50 pints/day (296)	10	1	IEF 1.91	HME0089 IEF 2.01
Portable dehumidifiers up to 25 pints/day (253)	5	1	IEF 1.7	HME0088 IEF 1.75

A higher IEF means more water removed per kWh.

Who makes hOmeLabs dehumidifiers?

DOE's database has no manufacturer field, so the evidence is whose model number each unit is filed under and which other brands file the same unit.

6 of the 15 hOmeLabs basic models use Midea's model number prefix (MDUDP-22AEN1-BA7, MDUDP-22AEN8-BA7, MDUDP-35AEN1-BA9 and 3 more).

hOmeLabs shares 5 units with 7 other brands. Its other 10 basic models are filed by hOmeLabs alone. Brands it shares with, and how many units each:

How much does a hOmeLabs dehumidifier cost to run?

Running nonstop at DOE's test conditions, the 15 hOmeLabs dehumidifiers with both figures use 2.78 to 13.05 kWh a day. That's about 50¢ to $2.37 a day, or $15.15 to $71.08 for 30 days. The lowest is hOmeLabs HME0081 (7.64 pints/day, IEF 1.3) and the highest hOmeLabs HME020279N (49.63 pints/day, IEF 1.8).

Real use cycles on and off with the humidity, so these are the upper figures for a day of nonstop running.

At 18.16¢ per kWh, the US average residential price for August 2026 (EIA Electric Power Monthly, table 5.6.A). Worked out from the certified figures.

Questions about hOmeLabs

Is hOmeLabs a good dehumidifier brand?: How its 15 dehumidifiers compare on efficiency with their DOE class is above. 6 are filed under another company's model number (see who makes them above). We don't test reliability, noise or build quality, so we can't rank brands on those. How we compare models.
Does hOmeLabs make a 50 pint dehumidifier?: Yes, by the 2019 DOE test: 4 of its models certify 49.5 pints/day or more, led by hOmeLabs HME021006N at 49.94 pints/day. By DOE class: 5 in the up to 25 pints/day class and 10 in the 25 to 50 pints/day class. How the 2019 test changed pint ratings.
Which hOmeLabs dehumidifier is the most efficient for its size?: hOmeLabs HME0088, at IEF 1.75: higher than 148 of the 253 in its DOE class (portable dehumidifiers up to 25 pints/day). At the other end are hOmeLabs HME0081 and hOmeLabs HME0091, at IEF 1.3, 2 of the 63 at DOE's 1.30 minimum.
Is hOmeLabs the same as Homepointe?: For 3 units, yes: both file them under the same DOE basic model (MDUDP-22AEN8-BA7, MDUDP-35AEN8-BA9 and MDUDP-50AEN8-BA9B). The other 12 hOmeLabs basic models aren't filed by Homepointe. Compare the 3 brands of MDUDP-22AEN8-BA7. Compare the 4 brands of MDUDP-35AEN8-BA9. Compare the 3 brands of MDUDP-50AEN8-BA9B.
