How much does it cost to run a window air conditioner continuously?

Look at the manufacturers label for the air conditioner to determine the wattage rating. Use that to figure out how many watts per hour. For ease of comparison / math convert that number to kilowatts. Your electric company usually bills customers in kilowatt hours. Multiply the kilowatts for your AC unit times the hours per day and multiply that by the cost per kWh, divide by 100 (decimal placement) and you have your answer. Unit cost * kW * hours / 100= For example a 1000 watt unit operated for 24 hours a day at a cost of 10 cents per kWh: 10*1*24/100= $2.40 a day, running continuously.

How many kilowatt hours does an air conditioner use per month running 12 hours a day?

on average how many kilowatts does a house use per day in electricity / gasAnswerA kilowatt is a unit of power, which is the rate at which you consume energy. The amount of energy consumed is expressed in kilowatt hours. So your question should read: "How many kilowatt hours of energy does the average home consume over the period of an hour?" As expressed, your question is meaningless, because you do not 'use' kilowatts.The answer is difficult, because it depends on the size of your house, the number of occupants, where you live (cold vs hot climate), the type of appliances you use -e.g. air conditioning, central heating, etc. If you think that your home is typical, check out your electricity bill -it will tell you have many kilowatt hours you've consumed over the billing period. It's then a case of simple mathematics to determine how many kilowatt hours you consumed over one hour.


How much does it cost to run a 1500-Watt hair dryer for 30minutes each day for 30 days at a rate of 12 cents per kWh?

To calculate the cost, first convert the hair dryer's power consumption to kilowatts: 1500 watts = 1.5 kW. Then, calculate the daily energy consumption: 1.5 kW * 0.5 hours = 0.75 kWh. Finally, determine the total cost: 0.75 kWh/day * 30 days * $0.12/kWh = $3.60.

How much does it cost to run an air conditioner?

Look at the manufacturers label for the air conditioner to determine the wattage rating. Use that to figure out how many watts per hour. For ease of comparison/math convert that number to kilowatts. Your electric company usually bills customers in kilowatts. Multiply the kilowatts for your AC unit times the hours per day and multiply that by the cost per kWH, divide by 100 (decimal placement) and you have your answer. Using a 3.5 KWh (Central) conditioner: 12 cents electricity: $312usd month, or $3,744usd a year. 40 cents electricity: $1042usd month, or $12,504 a year. Using a 0.9 KWh (medium) conditioner: 12 cents electricity: $80usd month, $960 a year. 40 cents electricity: $268usd a month, $3,216 a year. Using a 0.5 KWh (small) conditioner: 12 cents electricity: $45usd a month, $540 a year. 40 cents electricity: $149usd a month, $1,788 a year. Unit cost * kW * hours / 100= For example a 1000W unit operated for 24 hours a day at a cost of 10 cents per kWH: 10*1*24/100= $2.40 a day, running continuously.
