How much does the Antarctic Star A5410CE cost to run?

About 23¢ an hour of cooling, or $56.27 for 30 days at 8 hours a day (less once the compressor cycles off).

10,200 BTU/h SACC divided by a CEER of 7.9 is about 1,291 W while cooling. 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 8 hour figure by 10¢.

How does the Antarctic Star A5410CE rank in its DOE class?

In its DOE class (single hose portable ACs), 171 models have a matched Amazon listing. 17 of them have a higher CEER than its 7.9, which is 8% above their median of 7.3. On cost, the same 10,200 BTU/h at their median CEER would cost about $60.90 for 30 days at 8 hours, $4.63 more than this one.

Questions

What is the Antarctic Star A5410CE's real BTU?
It's certified to DOE at 10,200 BTU/h SACC (seasonally adjusted cooling capacity), the rating DOE requires for portable ACs. A box figure labeled ASHRAE is usually higher for the same unit because it comes from a different test: SACC vs ASHRAE.
Is it single hose or dual hose?
It was tested as a single hose unit, per the DOE record.
How big a room does it cool?
About 450 sq ft. ENERGY STAR's sizing chart calls for 10,000 BTU/h in rooms up to 450 sq ft. A sunny room, a kitchen or a high ceiling needs more.
How much does the Antarctic Star A5410CE cost to run for 8 hours?
About $1.88 for 8 hours of cooling: roughly 1,291 W at 18.16¢/kWh, the US residential average for August 2026 (EIA).
Who makes the Antarctic Star A5410CE?
DOE's database has no manufacturer field, so the record doesn't say. It does show 10 brands filing one basic model, A5410CE: Antarctic Star, COWSAR, Havato and 7 more.
