Model
Ge Profile PFD95GS*T***
Rank #603 means 602 of the 615 clothes dryer models we track cost less to run each year; the 27th efficiency percentile means it uses less energy for its size than 27% of those models.
What does the Ge Profile PFD95GS*T*** cost to run per year?
At $128 a year to run, the Ge Profile PFD95GS*T*** is among the most expensive to run in its class, ranking #603 of 615 clothes dryer models we track. Once capacity is factored in, its efficiency percentile of 27 is below the class median, worth weighing alongside the raw dollar figure. At a CEF of 3.48, its combined energy factor is the single figure that best explains how it earns its running-cost number.
Immediately around it on the leaderboard, the Ge GTD65GBMR*** at $128/yr runs a little cheaper and the Ge Profile PTD90GB*T*** at $128/yr runs a little more, a sense of how tightly models are packed at this point in the ranking. A clothes dryer typically stays in service for somewhere around 13 years; over that span, the Ge Profile PFD95GS*T***'s $128/yr adds up to roughly $1664 in electricity alone, before purchase price or repairs.
Also sold as: Ge GFD35GS*Y***.
By the numbers
The Ge Profile PFD95GS*T*** normalized against its whole class, so each figure means something.
What it costs you over time
Running cost is an every-year number, so it compounds. At $128/yr, here is what the Ge Profile PFD95GS*T*** adds up to before purchase price, water, or repairs enter the math.
Left running for a decade at today's US average rate, the Ge Profile PFD95GS*T*** costs about $1280. That is roughly $150 more than the class median, which would run closer to $1130 over the same ten years.
How the Ge Profile PFD95GS*T*** compares
The clothes dryer class we track runs from $23 to $128 a year. At $128/yr, it runs about $15 a year above the class median of $113, and it is about $105 a year more than the cheapest clothes dryer to run at $23.
What drives its running cost
At 7.8 cu ft, the Ge Profile PFD95GS*T*** is a large clothes dryer for its class, which spans 3.8 to 9.2 cu ft with a median of 7.4 cu ft, among clothes dryer models, bigger capacity is the most common reason a running-cost figure lands on the high side, all else being equal. The CEF of 3.48 on this model, below the class median of 3.93, measures combined energy factor; it is the number to compare directly against another model's CEF if capacity is similar.
- Heat source and Combined Energy Factor (CEF). CEF combines drying performance with standby and off-mode energy use; for a given drum size, a higher CEF means less energy per pound of laundry dried, and heat-pump models usually post the highest figures in the class.
- Drum capacity. Drum capacity sets how much laundry one cycle can hold, and heating a bigger volume of air generally costs more energy per cycle.
Common questions
Is the Ge Profile PFD95GS*T*** cheap to run?
Not especially. At $128 a year it ranks #603 of 615 clothes dryer models we track, in the pricier part of its class to run, though its size and features may still justify that for your needs.
How much does the Ge Profile PFD95GS*T*** cost per month?
Roughly $10.63/mo, spreading the $128/yr estimate evenly across twelve months at $0.1856/kWh. Actual monthly bills swing with your rate and usage pattern.
How is this running-cost figure calculated?
We take the model's published annual energy use of 687 kWh from ENERGY STAR and multiply it by the US average residential electricity rate of $0.1856/kWh, giving about $128 a year. It is an electricity-only estimate and does not include purchase price, water, or installation.
How efficient is the Ge Profile PFD95GS*T*** for its size?
27th percentile once size is factored in. That means its size-adjusted efficiency is not the main reason for the running-cost figure above; its capacity plays a large role too.
