How efficient are Ludatido dehumidifiers?
Of the 4 Ludatido dehumidifiers, 3 file a higher IEF than the class median and 1 falls below it.
| DOE class | Ludatido models | Above median | Class median | Best Ludatido |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Portable dehumidifiers up to 25 pints/day (253) | 4 | 3 | IEF 1.7 | PD10C2- |
A higher IEF means more water removed per kWh.
Who makes Ludatido 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.
None of the 4 Ludatido basic models is filed by another brand as of 2026-11-03, and none uses another company's model number. DOE's records tie them to Ludatido alone.
How much does a Ludatido dehumidifier cost to run?
Running nonstop at DOE's test conditions, the 4 Ludatido dehumidifiers with both figures use 2.78 to 5.81 kWh a day. That's about 51¢ to $1.05 a day, or $15.16 to $31.64 for 30 days. The lowest is Ludatido FDD12-5124V1R5 (8 pints/day, IEF 1.36) and the highest Ludatido PD10C2-25 (23.44 pints/day, IEF 1.91).
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 Ludatido
- Is Ludatido a good dehumidifier brand?
- How its 4 dehumidifiers compare on efficiency with their DOE class is above. All 4 are filed under Ludatido alone. We don't test reliability, noise or build quality, so we can't rank brands on those. How we compare models.
- Does Ludatido make a 50 pint dehumidifier?
- No current DOE record shows one as of 2026-11-03. Its largest, Ludatido PD10C2-25, certifies 23.44 pints/day under the 2019 DOE test. Boxes that quote the older 80°F test read higher for the same unit. How the 2019 test changed pint ratings.
- Which Ludatido dehumidifier is the most efficient for its size?
- Ludatido PD10C2-25, at IEF 1.91: higher than 235 of the 253 in its DOE class (portable dehumidifiers up to 25 pints/day). At the other end is Ludatido FDD12-5124V1R5, at IEF 1.36, higher than 75 of the 253 in its class.
