Thermador T24ID905LP against the category
That's 13.2% above the freezer category average of 401 kWh/yr, and ranks 454 of 658 certified freezers for annual running cost, 1 being cheapest. The category average comes from every freezer ENERGY STAR currently certifies (658 models), not an outside benchmark, about $10/year above that average at the national rate. See the methodology page.
What sits beside it in the ranking
Gaggenau RF463704 ($86/yr, 457 kWh/yr) costs a little more to run than the Thermador T24ID905LP. Miele F 2672 Vi ($85/yr, 454 kWh/yr) costs a little less.
Same brand, different models
Thermador makes 15 ENERGY STAR certified freezers; this one ranks 9 of 15 for running cost, between the brand's cheapest, the T18IF905SP at $76/yr, and its priciest, the T36IF900SP at $102/yr.
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 Thermador T24ID905LP runs above its category average. If the freezer 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 $85/year every year.
Compare current ENERGY STAR certified freezers before buying.
Protecting what you have
The Thermador T24ID905LP already costs $85/year to run; a repair bill on top of that is the kind of expense a protection plan exists to smooth out.
Sourcing
Ranked 454 of 658, the Thermador T24ID905LP sits in the middle of the freezer category, see the guide to why your state changes this number for the other half of the math. The 454 kWh/yr figure is ENERGY STAR's own certification, not a wattage estimate; exact dataset IDs are on the data sources page.
