What this site is
ApplianceCostFinder reports estimated appliance running costs from ENERGY STAR and EIA public data. It is informational only and is not a substitute for your own utility's actual rate plan or a real usage-metered bill, both of which can differ from the figures used here.
No warranty on the figures
Every figure traces to a named public dataset, but real household energy use varies by usage pattern, climate, appliance age and condition, and utility rate plan in ways a certified rating cannot capture. Nothing on this site is guaranteed to match your actual electric bill, and no result here should be the sole basis for a purchase decision.
No professional advice
Nothing on this site is financial or engineering advice. Whether replacing a specific appliance makes financial sense depends on facts this site does not know about your unit; confirm with your own utility bill or a qualified technician before deciding.
