How much does the AprilAire 130H cost to run?

About $3.90 a day, or $117.05 for 30 days, running nonstop at DOE's test conditions (less on days it cycles off at its humidity setting).

100.8 pints/day is 47.7 liters. At an IEF of 2.22 L/kWh that takes 21.48 kWh a day running nonstop at DOE's test conditions. Electricity at 18.16¢/kWh, the US residential average for August 2026 (EIA Electric Power Monthly, table 5.6.A). Each 1¢/kWh you pay above or below 18.16¢ moves the daily figure by 21¢.

How does the AprilAire 130H rank in its DOE class?

In its DOE class (whole home dehumidifiers), 10 models have a matched Amazon listing. Its IEF of 2.22 L/kWh is tied for 5th of the 10, and level with their median of 2.22.

DOE's minimum for this class is an IEF of 1.77 L/kWh for units made since June 13, 2019. At 2.22, this one files 25% above that floor. 2 of the 30 in the class file exactly the minimum. Source: 10 CFR 430.32(v)(2).

Questions

How many pints a day does the AprilAire 130H really remove?
100.8 pints/day, as certified to DOE under the 2019 test (65°F, 60% humidity). The older test ran at 80°F, so a rating from it reads higher for the same unit: the 2019 test explained.
How much does the AprilAire 130H cost to run for 24 hours?
About $3.90 for 24 hours nonstop at DOE's test conditions: 21.48 kWh at 18.16¢/kWh, the US residential average for August 2026 (EIA).
Who makes the AprilAire 130H?
DOE's database has no manufacturer field, so the record doesn't say. It does show 5 brands filing one basic model, E130: AprilAire, Anden, DriSteem and 2 more.
Is the AprilAire 130H the same as the Anden A130?
Yes, by DOE's records. Anden files A130 under the same basic model, E130, with the same 100.8 pints/day. 3 other brands file it too.
