Model
Commercial Cool CCUC1110GB
Rank #166 means 165 of the 622 freezer models we track cost less to run each year; the 47th efficiency percentile means it uses less energy for its size than 47% of those models.
What does the Commercial Cool CCUC1110GB cost to run per year?
The Commercial Cool CCUC1110GB costs about $66 a year to run, which beats most of the 622 freezer models we track; it ranks #166. It uses 11% less energy than the U.S. federal standard model in its class, which would cost about $74/yr to run, a saving of roughly $8 a year. Capacity-normalized, it ranks ahead of 47% of freezer models we track, right in the class's middle band. This class has no published efficiency-factor figure beyond annual kWh itself, so at 11.1 cu ft (the class spans 1.1 to 23), size is the clearest lever we can point to for this model's running cost.
Immediately around it on the leaderboard, the Black+Decker BUC1100XW at $66/yr runs a little cheaper and the Commercial Cool CCUC1110GS at $66/yr runs a little more, a sense of how tightly models are packed at this point in the ranking. A freezer typically stays in service for somewhere around 14 years; over that span, the Commercial Cool CCUC1110GB's $66/yr adds up to roughly $924 in electricity alone, before purchase price or repairs.
Also sold as: Avanti VF108K0W.
By the numbers
The Commercial Cool CCUC1110GB 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 $66/yr, here is what the Commercial Cool CCUC1110GB adds up to before purchase price, water, or repairs enter the math.
Left running for a decade at today's US average rate, the Commercial Cool CCUC1110GB costs about $660. That is roughly $80 less than a standard model in its class, which would run closer to $740 over the same ten years.
How the Commercial Cool CCUC1110GB compares
The freezer class we track runs from $25 to $120 a year. At $66/yr, it runs about $9 a year cheaper than the class median of $75, and it is about $41 a year more than the cheapest freezer to run at $25. Against the US federal standard model for its class at about $74/yr, the Commercial Cool CCUC1110GB uses 11% less energy.
What drives its running cost
At 11.1 cu ft, the Commercial Cool CCUC1110GB is a mid-size freezer for its class, which spans 1.1 to 23 cu ft with a median of 13.8 cu ft, right in the middle of the capacity range, so capacity is roughly a wash compared with the rest of the class.
- Interior volume. As with refrigerators, more cubic feet of frozen storage generally means a bigger compressor and a higher annual energy figure.
- Insulation and defrost type. Better-insulated cabinets lose less cold to the surrounding room, and frost-free (automatic-defrost) freezers run a periodic heating element that a manual-defrost model does not.
- Chest vs upright design. Door orientation affects how much cold air escapes per opening: top-opening chest designs generally hold cold better than front-opening upright ones.
Common questions
Is the Commercial Cool CCUC1110GB cheap to run?
Yes. Its $66/yr running cost puts it at rank #166 of 622, below what most freezer models we track cost to run.
How much does the Commercial Cool CCUC1110GB cost per month?
About $5.48 a month, which is the $66 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: 354 kWh from ENERGY STAR times the US average of $0.1856/kWh comes to about $66 a year. It covers electricity only, not the purchase price, water, or installation.
How efficient is the Commercial Cool CCUC1110GB for its size?
47th percentile once size is factored in, a fairly typical result for the class.
