How much does the Midea MAW05R1VWWT-T cost to run?

About 9¢ an hour of cooling, or $21.36 for 30 days at 8 hours a day (less once the compressor cycles off).

DOE's record lists 490 W of electrical input 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 4¢.

How does the Midea MAW05R1VWWT-T rank in its DOE class?

Its DOE class (window ACs, less than 6,000 BTU/h) has 24 models certified to DOE. Its CEER of 14.4 is tied for 1st of the 24, and 10% above their median of 13.1. On cost, the same 5,000 BTU/h at their median CEER would cost about $23.48 for 30 days at 8 hours, $2.12 more than this one.

Questions

How big a room does it cool?
About 150 sq ft. ENERGY STAR's sizing chart calls for 5,000 BTU/h in rooms up to 150 sq ft. A sunny room, a kitchen or a high ceiling needs more.
How much does the Midea MAW05R1VWWT-T cost to run for 8 hours?
About 71¢ for 8 hours of cooling: roughly 490 W at 18.16¢/kWh, the US residential average for August 2026 (EIA).
