How efficient is the SEAVON AS280-W?
SEAVON AS280-W files IEF 1.3 L/kWh. The median among the 253 models in its DOE class (portable dehumidifiers up to 25 pints/day) is 1.7, so it's below the median: tied with 62 others at DOE's 1.30 minimum.
A higher IEF means more water removed per kWh.
Who makes SEAVON 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.
Its one basic model isn't filed by any other brand as of 2026-11-03, and the model number isn't another company's. DOE's records tie it to SEAVON alone.
How much does a SEAVON dehumidifier cost to run?
SEAVON AS280-W certifies 6 pints/day (2.84 liters) at an IEF of 1.3 L/kWh. That takes 2.18 kWh a day running nonstop at DOE's test conditions: about 40¢ a day, or $11.90 for 30 days.
Real use cycles on and off with the humidity, so that's the upper figure 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.
How does SEAVON AS280-W compare with other brands?

- Nearest size in its class with a higher IEF: VEAGASO BP03, 7 pints/day. DOE class up to 25 pints/day, IEF 1.41: about 8% less power for the same water removal.
- Nearest bigger unit: Auseo 42009EDE0-WHITE, 9.45 pints/day. DOE class up to 25 pints/day, IEF 1.92.
Questions about SEAVON
- Is SEAVON a good dehumidifier brand?
- Its one dehumidifier basic model, SEAVON AS280-W, certifies 6 pints/day under the 2019 DOE test, and its IEF of 1.3 is tied with 62 others at DOE's 1.30 minimum. We don't test reliability, noise or build quality, so we can't rank brands on those. How we compare models.
- Does SEAVON make a 50 pint dehumidifier?
- No current DOE record shows one as of 2026-11-03. Its one model, SEAVON AS280-W, certifies 6 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.
