Model
Frigidaire FFUE0725AW
Rank #126 means 125 of the 622 freezer 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 Frigidaire FFUE0725AW cost to run per year?
At about $55 a year, the Frigidaire FFUE0725AW undercuts most freezer models we track on running cost, rank #126 of 622. It uses 11% less energy than the U.S. federal standard model in its class, which would cost about $62/yr to run, a saving of roughly $7 a year. Efficiency-wise, once size is accounted for, it trails most of the class, ahead of only 26% of the models we track. This class has no published efficiency-factor figure beyond annual kWh itself, so at 7 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 Danby DUFM068A1SCDB at $55/yr runs a little cheaper and the Frigidaire FFUE0726AW at $55/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 Frigidaire FFUE0725AW's $55/yr adds up to roughly $770 in electricity alone, before purchase price or repairs.

By the numbers
The Frigidaire FFUE0725AW 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 $55/yr, here is what the Frigidaire FFUE0725AW adds up to before purchase price, water, or repairs enter the math.
Left running for a decade at today's US average rate, the Frigidaire FFUE0725AW costs about $550. That is roughly $70 less than a standard model in its class, which would run closer to $620 over the same ten years.
How the Frigidaire FFUE0725AW compares
The freezer class we track runs from $25 to $120 a year. At $55/yr, it runs about $20 a year cheaper than the class median of $75, and it is about $30 a year more than the cheapest freezer to run at $25. Against the US federal standard model for its class at about $62/yr, the Frigidaire FFUE0725AW uses 11% less energy.
What drives its running cost
At 7 cu ft, the Frigidaire FFUE0725AW is a small freezer for its class, which spans 1.1 to 23 cu ft with a median of 13.8 cu ft, less capacity to service is usually the first reason a running-cost figure lands on the low side, before efficiency even enters the picture.
- 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 Frigidaire FFUE0725AW cheap to run?
Yes. Its $55/yr running cost puts it at rank #126 of 622, below what most freezer models we track cost to run.
How much does the Frigidaire FFUE0725AW cost per month?
About $4.58 a month, which is the $55 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: 296 kWh from ENERGY STAR times the US average of $0.1856/kWh comes to about $55 a year. It covers electricity only, not the purchase price, water, or installation.
How efficient is the Frigidaire FFUE0725AW for its size?
26th percentile once size is factored in, a fairly typical result for the class.
