How much does the DuraComfort DH50PWB cost to run?

About $2.12 a day, or $63.74 for 30 days, running nonstop at DOE's test conditions (less on days it cycles off at its humidity setting).

49.7 pints/day is 23.52 liters. At an IEF of 2.01 L/kWh that takes 11.7 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 12¢.

How does the DuraComfort DH50PWB rank in its DOE class?

In its DOE class (portable dehumidifiers, 25 to 50 pints/day), 73 models have a matched Amazon listing. Its IEF of 2.01 L/kWh is tied for 12th of the 73, and level with their median of 2.01.

DOE's minimum for this class is an IEF of 1.60 L/kWh for units made since June 13, 2019. At 2.01, this one files 26% above that floor. 3 of the 296 in the class file exactly the minimum. Source: 10 CFR 430.32(v)(2).

Questions

How many pints a day does the DuraComfort DH50PWB really remove?
49.7 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 DH50PWB cost to run for 24 hours?
About $2.12 for 24 hours nonstop at DOE's test conditions: 11.7 kWh at 18.16¢/kWh, the US residential average for August 2026 (EIA).
Who makes the DuraComfort DH50PWB?
DOE's database has no manufacturer field, so the record doesn't say. It does show 2 brands filing one basic model, DEM 50EPD: DuraComfort and Gasbye.
Is the DuraComfort DH50PWB the same as the Gasbye DryPrime-50-B?
Yes, by DOE's records. Gasbye files DryPrime-50-B and DryPrime-50-W under the same basic model, DEM 50EPD, with the same 49.7 pints/day.
