How much does the Fehom CHWA120B cost to run?
About $1.50 a day, or $45.14 for 30 days, running nonstop at DOE's test conditions (less on days it cycles off at its humidity setting).
35.2 pints/day is 16.66 liters. At an IEF of 2.01 L/kWh that takes 8.29 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 8¢.
How does the Fehom CHWA120B rank in its DOE class?
In its DOE class (portable dehumidifiers, 25 to 50 pints/day), 73 models have a matched Amazon listing. 11 of them have a higher IEF than its 2.01, which is 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 Fehom CHWA120B really remove?
- 35.2 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 Fehom CHWA120B cost to run for 24 hours?
- About $1.50 for 24 hours nonstop at DOE's test conditions: 8.29 kWh at 18.16¢/kWh, the US residential average for August 2026 (EIA).
- Who makes the Fehom CHWA120B?
- DOE's database has no manufacturer field, so the record doesn't say. It does show 4 brands filing one basic model, AD-35C7A3/TWR3-B0: Fehom, KESNOS, waykar and YAUFEY.
- Is the Fehom CHWA120B the same as the KESNOS CHWA120B?
- Yes, by DOE's records. KESNOS files CHWA120B and CHWA120E under the same basic model, AD-35C7A3/TWR3-B0, with the same 35.2 pints/day. 2 other brands file it too.
