How much does the waykar CHWA80A cost to run?
About $1.13 a day, or $33.80 for 30 days, running nonstop at DOE's test conditions (less on days it cycles off at its humidity setting).
24.91 pints/day is 11.79 liters. At an IEF of 1.9 L/kWh that takes 6.2 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 6¢.
How does the waykar CHWA80A 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. 8 of them have a higher IEF than its 1.9, which is 10% above their median of 1.73. On cost, removing the same 24.91 pints a day at their median IEF would cost $37.23 for 30 days running nonstop, $3.43 more than this one.
DOE's minimum for this class is an IEF of 1.30 L/kWh for units made since June 13, 2019. At 1.9, this one files 46% 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 waykar CHWA80A really remove?
- 24.91 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 waykar CHWA80A cost to run for 24 hours?
- About $1.13 for 24 hours nonstop at DOE's test conditions: 6.2 kWh at 18.16¢/kWh, the US residential average for August 2026 (EIA).
- Who makes the waykar CHWA80A?
- DOE's database has no manufacturer field, so the record doesn't say. It does show 4 brands filing one basic model, AD-22B0A3/TWR3-A7: waykar, Fehom, KESNOS and YAUFEY.
- Is the waykar CHWA80A the same as the Fehom CHWA80B?
- Yes, by DOE's records. Fehom files CHWA80B under the same basic model, AD-22B0A3/TWR3-A7, with the same 24.91 pints/day. 2 other brands file it too.
