Energy Cost Calculator in West Yarmouth, MA
Estimate what an appliance costs to run per month and per year at your electricity rate.
Typical average power while running (watts) and default hours of use per day. kWh/day = watts x hours / 1000. Your rate is on your electric bill; the U.S. average is roughly $0.17 per kWh.
| Appliance | Typical watts | Hours/day | Approx. cost/month at $0.17 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Refrigerator (modern) | 150 | 8 | $6.20 |
| Refrigerator (15+ years old) | 250 | 10 | $12.92 |
| Chest or upright freezer | 100 | 8 | $4.13 |
| Washing machine | 500 | 1 | $2.58 |

| Dehumidifier | 300 | 8 | $12.40 |

Refrigerators and freezers cycle on and off, so their "hours per day" is the time the compressor actually runs. An old refrigerator with dirty coils or a bad door seal runs longer and costs more.
