- Keep the full-day runtime unless you have measured something more precise.
- Use the yearly view because cooling appliances stay on all year.
How to reduce running cost
- Keep the unit away from heat sources and direct sun.
- Check seals and temperature settings before assuming the appliance is efficient.
- Compare the yearly cost against a mini fridge or refrigerator setup.
