How efficient are Uthfy models?
Portable air conditioners
Of the 10 Uthfy portable ACs, 5 file a higher CEER than the class median and 5 fall below it.
| Class | Uthfy models | Above median | Class median | Best Uthfy |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Single hose portable ACs (1,044) | 10 | 5 | CEER 7.3 | HY14MAC003 CEER 8.1 |
Dehumidifiers
Of the 10 Uthfy dehumidifiers, 10 file a higher IEF than the class median.
| DOE class | Uthfy models | Above median | Class median | Best Uthfy |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Portable dehumidifiers up to 25 pints/day (253) | 8 | 8 | IEF 1.7 | HY9DE003 IEF 1.92 |
| Portable dehumidifiers, 25 to 50 pints/day (296) | 2 | 2 | IEF 1.91 | HY35DE001 IEF 2.03 |
A higher CEER means more cooling per watt. A higher IEF means more water removed per kWh.
Who makes Uthfy portable ACs and 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.

How much do Uthfy models cost to run?
While cooling, Uthfy portable ACs draw about 746 to 1,291 W (certified SACC divided by CEER). That's 14¢ to 23¢ an hour, or $32.53 to $56.27 for 30 days at 8 hours a day. The lowest is Uthfy HY08MAC002 (5,300 BTU/h SACC, CEER 7.1) and the highest Uthfy HYMAC14CD1 (10,200 BTU/h SACC, CEER 7.9).
Running nonstop at DOE's test conditions, the 10 Uthfy dehumidifiers with both figures use 2.22 to 8.38 kWh a day. That's about 40¢ to $1.52 a day, or $12.08 to $45.68 for 30 days. The lowest is Uthfy HY9DE003 (9 pints/day, IEF 1.92) and the highest Uthfy HY35DE001 (35.97 pints/day, IEF 2.03).
Real use cycles on and off with the humidity, so the dehumidifier figures are the upper end 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 Uthfy
- Is Uthfy a good dehumidifier brand?
- How its 10 dehumidifiers compare on efficiency with their DOE class is above. 10 of them are the same unit as another brand's model. We don't test reliability, noise or build quality, so we can't rank brands on those. How we compare models.
- Does Uthfy make a 50 pint dehumidifier?
- No current DOE record shows one as of 2026-11-03. Its largest, Uthfy HY35DE001, certifies 35.97 pints/day under the 2019 DOE test. Boxes that quote the older 80°F test read higher for the same unit. By DOE class: 8 in the up to 25 pints/day class and 2 in the 25 to 50 pints/day class. How the 2019 test changed pint ratings.
- Which Uthfy dehumidifier is the most efficient for its size?
- Uthfy HY35DE001 and Uthfy OL35-D076FFN3B1/E tie at IEF 2.03: higher than 280 of the 296 in its DOE class (portable dehumidifiers, 25 to 50 pints/day). At the other end are Uthfy HY16DE002, Uthfy HY16DE002-W, Uthfy OL16-D068FFN2B1/E and 1 more, at IEF 1.89, higher than 215 of the 253 in its class.
- Is Uthfy the same as KEGIAN?
- For 12 units, yes: both file them under the same DOE basic model (NPH-10H/X1E, NPL-06C/X1E, HY16DE002, HY16DE002-W and 8 more). The other 8 Uthfy basic models aren't filed by KEGIAN.
