How much does the DuraComfort DH25F cost to run?

About $1.20 a day, or $36.06 for 30 days, running nonstop at DOE's test conditions (less on days it cycles off at its humidity setting). Worked out from the figure most of its filings list.

24.48 pints/day is 11.58 liters. At an IEF of 1.75 L/kWh that takes 6.62 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 7¢.

How does the DuraComfort DH25F rank in its DOE class?

In its DOE class (portable dehumidifiers up to 25 pints/day), 78 models have a matched Amazon listing, not counting 1 filing flagged as unusual. Its IEF of 1.75 L/kWh is tied for 30th of the 78, and 1% above their median of 1.73.

DOE's minimum for this class is an IEF of 1.30 L/kWh for units made since June 13, 2019. At 1.75, this one files 35% above that floor. 63 of the 253 in the class file exactly the minimum. Source: 10 CFR 430.32(v)(2).

Questions

How many pints a day does the DuraComfort DH25F really remove?
24.48 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 DuraComfort DH25F cost to run for 24 hours?
About $1.20 for 24 hours nonstop at DOE's test conditions, from the figure most of its filings list: 6.62 kWh at 18.16¢/kWh, the US residential average for August 2026 (EIA).
Who makes the DuraComfort DH25F?
DOE's database has no manufacturer field, so the record doesn't say. It does show 5 brands filing one basic model, DFL1-25ED: DuraComfort, hOmeLabs, waykar and 2 more.
Is the DuraComfort DH25F the same as the hOmeLabs HME0088?
Yes, by DOE's records. hOmeLabs files HME0088 under the same basic model, DFL1-25ED, with the same 24.48 pints/day. 3 other brands file it too.
