How much does it cost to run a dehumidifier in Alaska?

$95/yr · median certified model

Electricity in Alaska is genuinely expensive — 28.2¢/kWh, 54% above the national average — so the median certified dehumidifier costs about $95 a year, and efficiency differences between models turn into real money.

Alaska ranks 45 of 51 jurisdictions for dehumidifier running costs — solidly mid-table. At local rates, certified models span $30 (CONCETTA AS-CSJ72XK-2WT-OL) to $792 (Healthy Climate HCWHD#-130) per year — $763 of annual headroom that depends entirely on which unit you buy. For reference, the national extremes are Nevada (13.1¢/kWh) and Hawaii (52.7¢/kWh); the same median dehumidifier would cost $44 and $178 a year there.
