Running cost

Costs more to run than most 19–28 pint models

It uses 15 kWh a year more than the median 19–28 pint model. Over 11 years, the DOE’s average life for a portable, that’s about $30 extra in the United States. The thriftiest 19–28 pint model, the Knka PD30MA-20, would cost $139 less.

How long dehumidifiers last

Same figures, other brand

Same EPA figures under six other brands

The company that files it with the EPA lists six models under other brands with the same capacity, energy use, and efficiency. Among them are the Waykar JD025CE-80, Folanzy WTE80P-025T, and JHS D025B-25Pt3. Compare their prices and warranties before you choose.

Ask before you buy

Ask for a noise figure

Our sources publish no noise level for the JD025L-80. If it runs where you sleep or work, ask for a figure in dB(A), with the distance it was measured from.

in the United States

Run for a whole day at its rating, the JD025L-80 removes 24.93 pints, about 3.1 gallons, on roughly 6.9 kWh. In the United States, that’s $1.27.

Divide the EPA’s 299 kWh a year by one full day’s use, and you get roughly 43 days. Past that, each day at full output adds $1.27 to the bill.

The DOE test behind those 24.93 pints runs at 65°F and 60% humidity. At the same humidity, a cooler basement gets less water out of the JD025L-80.

Without a hose or a pump, someone has to carry out 3.1 gallons a day. Our sources don’t say whether the JD025L-80 has a bucket, or how much it holds.
