Model
Yoau; Shinco; Uhome YDL-24P/6
Rank #155 means 154 of the 519 dehumidifier models we track cost less to run each year; the 26th efficiency percentile means it uses less energy for its size than 26% of those models.
What does the Yoau; Shinco; Uhome YDL-24P/6 cost to run per year?
The Yoau; Shinco; Uhome YDL-24P/6 is a relatively cheap runner for its class: about $52 a year, rank #155 of 519. Once capacity is factored in, its efficiency percentile of 26 is below the class median, worth weighing alongside the raw dollar figure. Its IEF of 1.76 reflects integrated energy factor, one of the class's core efficiency levers.
Immediately around it on the leaderboard, the Yoau; Shinco; Uhome YDA-25P/S6 at $52/yr runs a little cheaper and the Yoau; Shinco; Uhome YDL-25P/6 at $52/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 Yoau; Shinco; Uhome YDL-24P/6's $52/yr adds up to roughly $416 in electricity alone, before purchase price or repairs.
Also sold as: Waykar; Kesnos; Yaufey; Fehom YDA-80.
By the numbers
The Yoau; Shinco; Uhome YDL-24P/6 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 $52/yr, here is what the Yoau; Shinco; Uhome YDL-24P/6 adds up to before purchase price, water, or repairs enter the math.
Left running for a decade at today's US average rate, the Yoau; Shinco; Uhome YDL-24P/6 costs about $520. That is roughly $120 less than the class median, which would run closer to $640 over the same ten years.
How the Yoau; Shinco; Uhome YDL-24P/6 compares
The dehumidifier class we track runs from $19 to $521 a year. At $52/yr, it runs about $12 a year cheaper than the class median of $64, and it is about $33 a year more than the cheapest dehumidifier to run at $19.
What drives its running cost
At 24 pints/day, the Yoau; Shinco; Uhome YDL-24P/6 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. Beyond size, its IEF of 1.76, below the class median of 2.01, is the class's own efficiency yardstick, integrated energy factor, and it is what separates two similarly sized models with different running costs.
- Integrated Energy Factor (IEF). Two dehumidifiers rated for the same pints per day can carry very different IEF figures, and IEF is what actually separates their running costs.
- Water removal capacity (pints/day). Pints-per-day rating scales with the space it is built for, and that rating is the first driver of how much power the compressor needs.
- Humidistat accuracy. How tightly a humidistat holds its target humidity determines how much of the day the compressor actually runs, on top of the unit's rated capacity and IEF.
Common questions
Is the Yoau; Shinco; Uhome YDL-24P/6 cheap to run?
Yes, relatively. At $52 a year it ranks #155 of 519 dehumidifier models we track, in the cheaper part of its class to run.
How much does the Yoau; Shinco; Uhome YDL-24P/6 cost per month?
Roughly $4.36/mo, spreading the $52/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 282 kWh from ENERGY STAR and multiply it by the US average residential electricity rate of $0.1856/kWh, giving about $52 a year. It is an electricity-only estimate and does not include purchase price, water, or installation.
How efficient is the Yoau; Shinco; Uhome YDL-24P/6 for its size?
26th percentile once size is factored in, a fairly typical result for the class.
