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.
Shopping for a new one
At $86/year, this is on the expensive side for a freezer; the cheapest certified model in this category runs about $26/year, worth knowing before buying either the Thermador T24ID900LP or its replacement.
Worth comparing a few current certified models before deciding.
If you're keeping it
$86/year to run is the predictable cost of the Thermador T24ID900LP; a protection plan covers the unpredictable one, a repair bill.
Where this number comes from
Nothing here is estimated from a nameplate wattage; the 457 kWh/yr is ENERGY STAR's own certified figure for this model. The full Freezer category page shows all 658 freezers ranked by cost; the state-rate guide covers the half of this number that isn't the appliance.
