How much does the Meaco 12 Low Energy Dehumidifier cost to run?

We launched the Platinum Range of Low Energy dehumidifiers in January of this year and they have shot up our sales charts and have been a massive success for us.  What customers like is the fact that they are so well built and cost so little to run.  We are constantly looking to publish data to help customers understand why these dehumidifiers are so special and so different and to challenge other manufacturers to do the same.  We have already published energy efficiency statistics for the Meaco 20L Low Energy Dehumidifier and today we are doing the same for the Meaco 12L Low Energy Dehumidifier.

We have calculated the amount of energy used by the dehumidifier to extract a litre of water under different conditions of temperature and relative humidity.  This is expressed in kilowatt hours per litre (kWh/l) because kilowatts hours (kWh) is the basis upon which we are all charged for electricity.  At the time of writing 34p is a good figure to use for the amount that most electricity companies are charging per kWh*.

Our advice is to look at this sort of data closely and then use it to help you to decide which dehumidifier is best for you and to ensure that you can afford to run your dehumidifier.  When you look around you will find that lots of dehumidifiers have much, much higher wattage and will cost a lot more in electricity charges over the years.
