How much does it cost to run a dishwasher in New Hampshire?
$65/yr · median certified model
Electricity in New Hampshire is genuinely expensive — 27.0¢/kWh, 47% above the national average — so the median certified dishwasher costs about $65 a year, and efficiency differences between models turn into real money.
New Hampshire ranks 44 of 51 jurisdictions for dishwasher running costs — solidly mid-table. Model choice matters as much as geography: at New Hampshire rates the most efficient certified model (Loch L1126) costs $22 a year while the most power-hungry (Amana ADFS2524R) costs $65 — a spread of $43 every year. For reference, the national extremes are Nevada (13.1¢/kWh) and Hawaii (52.7¢/kWh); the same median dishwasher would cost $31 and $126 a year there.
