Dehumidifiers can consume up to 1,000 kWh/year, which is as much as a refrigerator! ENERGY STAR labeled dehumidifiers will provide all of the desired features-moisture removal, quiet operation, reliability, and durability-as well as energy efficiency.

On average, an ENERGY STAR labeled dehumidifier saves $150-$200 over its lifetime.

An ENERGY STAR-rated dehumidier will make it easy to identify energy efficient units that save money on utility bills and reduce air pollution. ENERGY STAR labeled dehumidifiers have improved product designs for both standard and high capacity units.
