What the Aeocky LEO PRO-RCS50(Y)-N4-3(B)-25 costs to run
The Aeocky LEO PRO-RCS50(Y)-N4-3(B)-25 is certified by ENERGY STAR at 438 kWh a year, more expensive than most models in its category to run among dehumidifiers currently certified.
That $82 is priced at 18.8¢/kWh, the average of all 51 state rates this site tracks. Your own state's rate is one click away.
Efficient, or not, for a dehumidifier
The category average is 378 kWh/yr; this model runs 15.9% above it, ranking 358 of 546 dehumidifiers tracked here for running cost. That average is drawn from all 546 dehumidifiers ENERGY STAR currently certifies, not an outside number, a $11/year gap from this model at the national rate. Full sourcing is in the sourcing notes.
Right next to it on the list
A rank or two either side of the Aeocky LEO PRO-RCS50(Y)-N4-3(B)-25: Aeocky RHEA PRO-RCS50(Y)-N4-3-25 ($81/yr, 432 kWh/yr), then Vellgoo TAURUS PRO-RCS50(Y)-N4-3-25 ($83/yr, 444 kWh/yr).
Comparing Aeocky's own models
Of the 7 ENERGY STAR certified dehumidifiers Aeocky makes, the LEO PRO-RCS50(Y)-N4-3(B)-25 costs the most to run, $29/year more than Aeocky's cheapest, the RHEA-RCS25(Y)-N4-3-25.
Lifespan
NAHB's Study of Life Expectancy of Home Components does not publish a figure for dehumidifiers, so no lifetime cost is shown here rather than a guessed one. The annual and monthly figures above stand on their own.
Weighing a replacement
The Aeocky LEO PRO-RCS50(Y)-N4-3(B)-25 runs above its category average. If the dehumidifier you actually own is older still, likely well past ENERGY STAR's efficiency baseline when it was made, a current certified model could cost meaningfully less than this model's $82/year every year.
Worth comparing a few current certified models before deciding.
If you're keeping it
Whether or not the Aeocky LEO PRO-RCS50(Y)-N4-3(B)-25 ever needs replacing, a repair is the more common failure for a dehumidifier, one a protection plan budgets for ahead of time.
Where this number comes from
Two sourced numbers, nothing modeled: ENERGY STAR's certified kWh/yr for this exact model, and EIA's published state electricity rate. The full Dehumidifier category page shows all 546 dehumidifiers ranked by cost; the state-rate guide covers the half of this number that isn't the appliance.
