How much does the Midea MAW08U1KWT-M cost to run?
About 13¢ an hour of cooling, or $31.38 for 30 days at 8 hours a day (less once the compressor cycles off).
DOE's record lists 720 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 6¢.
How does the Midea MAW08U1KWT-M rank in its DOE class?
Its DOE class (window ACs, 6,000 to 7,999 BTU/h) has 45 models certified to DOE. Its CEER of 15.1 is tied for 2nd of the 45, and 10% above their median of 13.7. On cost, the same 7,800 BTU/h at their median CEER would cost about $34.59 for 30 days at 8 hours, $3.21 more than this one.
