Model
Prikod DH-70SPV
Rank #206 means 205 of the 519 dehumidifier models we track cost less to run each year; the 18th efficiency percentile means it uses less energy for its size than 18% of those models.
What does the Prikod DH-70SPV cost to run per year?
At roughly $54 a year to run, ranking #206 of 519, the Prikod DH-70SPV costs less than the typical dehumidifier model we track. Its size-adjusted efficiency percentile of 18 means the low running cost, where it exists, is driven almost entirely by capacity rather than efficiency. Its IEF of 1.79 reflects integrated energy factor, one of the class's core efficiency levers.
Immediately around it on the leaderboard, the Prikod DH-70SPIV at $54/yr runs a little cheaper and the Prikod DH-70SV at $54/yr runs a little more, a sense of how tightly models are packed at this point in the ranking. A dehumidifier typically stays in service for somewhere around 8 years; over that span, the Prikod DH-70SPV's $54/yr adds up to roughly $432 in electricity alone, before purchase price or repairs.

By the numbers
The Prikod DH-70SPV 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 $54/yr, here is what the Prikod DH-70SPV adds up to before purchase price, water, or repairs enter the math.
Left running for a decade at today's US average rate, the Prikod DH-70SPV costs about $540. That is roughly $100 less than the class median, which would run closer to $640 over the same ten years.
How the Prikod DH-70SPV compares
The dehumidifier class we track runs from $19 to $521 a year. At $54/yr, it runs about $10 a year cheaper than the class median of $64, and it is about $35 a year more than the cheapest dehumidifier to run at $19.
What drives its running cost
At 24 pints/day, the Prikod DH-70SPV is a small dehumidifier for its class, which spans 1.91 to 172.13 pints/day with a median of 32.46 pints/day, less capacity to service is usually the first reason a running-cost figure lands on the low side, before efficiency even enters the picture. Its IEF of 1.79, below the class median of 2.01, reflects integrated energy factor: a higher figure means it wrings more useful work out of every kilowatt-hour, so it is the efficiency lever to weigh against raw size.
- Integrated Energy Factor (IEF). IEF measures liters of water removed per kilowatt-hour; a higher IEF means less energy per pint of moisture removed for a given capacity.
- Water removal capacity (pints/day). A dehumidifier rated to remove more pints per day is built for a larger space or a more humid room, and generally draws more power to do it.
- Humidistat accuracy. A unit with a more precise humidistat cycles the compressor off once the target humidity is reached, rather than running continuously.
Common questions
Is the Prikod DH-70SPV cheap to run?
Yes. Its $54/yr running cost puts it at rank #206 of 519, below what most dehumidifier models we track cost to run.
How much does the Prikod DH-70SPV cost per month?
About $4.49 a month, which is the $54 annual estimate spread across twelve months at the US average rate of $0.1856/kWh. Your own bill scales with your local electricity rate and how heavily you use it.
How is this running-cost figure calculated?
The formula is annual kWh times price per kWh: 290 kWh from ENERGY STAR times the US average of $0.1856/kWh comes to about $54 a year. It covers electricity only, not the purchase price, water, or installation.
How efficient is the Prikod DH-70SPV for its size?
18th percentile once size is factored in, a fairly typical result for the class.
