AIRMEGA AP-1125G
At the standardized usage ENERGY STAR assumes, the AIRMEGA AP-1125G consumes 195 kWh a year — about $37 at the U.S. average electricity rate ($3.06 a month). That's close to the middle of the certified pack — about 32% above the median air purifier, ranked 129 of 214. The same unit costs $24 a year in North Dakota but $91 in Hawaii — electricity rates, not the appliance, make the difference. Note the certified pool here is small (214 models), so rankings shift more with each data refresh.
