How we know it's one unit
Every brand here filed its model numbers under the same DOE basic model, HY10MAC001. DOE's definition of a basic model (10 CFR 430.2) covers "all units of a given type of covered product (or class thereof) manufactured by one manufacturer" with "the same primary energy source" and nearly identical "electrical, physical, and functional (or hydraulic) characteristics that affect energy consumption, energy efficiency, water consumption, or water efficiency." So one set of DOE figures covers every name on the list. Both brands file HY10MAC001 itself as their model number, so the number alone doesn't say which of them builds it.
Brands may still differ in color, controls, accessories, warranty and support. Full record and every model number: AKIRES HY10MAC001.
How much does the HY10MAC001 cost to run?
6,250 BTU/h SACC divided by a CEER of 7.2 is about 868 W while cooling. That's about 16¢ an hour, or $37.83 for 30 days at 8 hours a day.
At 18.16¢ per kWh, the US average residential price for August 2026 (EIA Electric Power Monthly, table 5.6.A). Worked out from the certified figures.

Who makes the HY10MAC001, and is it the same under every brand?
- Who makes the MEPTY HY10MAC001?
- DOE's records don't say. The MEPTY HY10MAC001 is filed under basic model HY10MAC001 along with the AKIRES HY10MAC001. Both brands file that same number as their model, and DOE's database has no manufacturer field.
- Is the MEPTY HY10MAC001 the same as the AKIRES HY10MAC001?
- Yes, by DOE's records. Both are filed under basic model HY10MAC001 and list the same certified figures: 6,250 BTU/h SACC, CEER 7.2 and single hose.
- Which brand of HY10MAC001 is cheapest to run?
- They tie: every brand files 6,250 BTU/h SACC, CEER 7.2 and single hose, so each costs about 16¢ an hour to run while cooling.
