How much does the GARVEE JHS-A020B-10KR-D cost to run?
About 24¢ an hour of cooling, or $58.11 for 30 days at 8 hours a day (less once the compressor cycles off).
10,800 BTU/h SACC divided by a CEER of 8.1 is about 1,333 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 11¢.
How does the GARVEE JHS-A020B-10KR-D rank in its DOE class?
In its DOE class (single hose portable ACs), 171 models have a matched Amazon listing. Its CEER of 8.1 is tied for 8th of the 171, and 11% above their median of 7.3. On cost, the same 10,800 BTU/h at their median CEER would cost about $64.48 for 30 days at 8 hours, $6.37 more than this one.

Questions
- What is the GARVEE JHS-A020B-10KR-D's real BTU?
- It's certified to DOE at 10,800 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 GARVEE JHS-A020B-10KR-D cost to run for 8 hours?
- About $1.94 for 8 hours of cooling: roughly 1,333 W at 18.16¢/kWh, the US residential average for August 2026 (EIA).
- Who makes the GARVEE JHS-A020B-10KR-D?
- DOE's database has no manufacturer field, so the record doesn't say. It does show 4 brands filing one basic model, JHS-A020B-10KR-D: GARVEE, ACEKOOL, DENBIG and JHS.
