Lifespan

NAHB's Study of Life Expectancy of Home Components does not publish a figure for freezers, 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 Professional Series PS-UFR702US-CH is already efficient for its category at $56/year. If you're shopping and comparing options, this is roughly what a well-chosen new freezer costs to run.

Compare current ENERGY STAR certified freezers before buying.

Protecting what you have

At $56/year just to run, a freezer is worth protecting against an unplanned repair bill on top of that.

Sourcing

Nothing here is estimated from a nameplate wattage; the 296 kWh/yr is ENERGY STAR's own certified figure for this model. At rank 139 of 658 for running cost, see the freezer category page for the rest of the field, or the guide to how much your state matters.
