I installed this pump the day before Sandy hit and my house (in the flood fringe of the Delaware River, so prone to flooding and sits low in the water table) was without electricity for 5 days. My water bill went up $4 that month.

Very little since it operates only in power outages for at the most a few hours a year. Like running a lawn sprinkler for a few hours.

Thankfully I have yet had the pump be activated as it is my backup pump. However, I will recommend that you use the water detecting alarm that lets you know when your electric sump pump has failed because the water level has risen in your pump well. The alarm is recommended at the bottom of the Amazon page when you're looking at the Liberty Pump site. The alarm lets you know you're running on water. If the water pump is running because of a power failure, you can't help it, but if it's a failed pump, then you know to replace it.

They have not used it yet as this pump is for emergencies only, when you lose electrical power and your main sump pump stops working. What little water it will use when needed and the resulting minimal cost will be a better option than a flooded basement.

Not noticeably for us as we only let it run as a back-up. I like to get my generator running rather than keep using the water. If it ran for a long time, it could impact, just depends if it is constantly running or not.

Honestly, I have had this for approximately one year and it has never had to turn on. I haven't lost power long enough for the water to rise to turn this unit on. If it saves your basement from water flooding, an increase in your water bill will be well worth it. Just my thinking.

I do not know. We added the phone to our Verizon account and our bill increased by $10 a month.

I made the mistake of leaving it running for a few weeks this winter so that it was ready whenever I wanted to use it. Big mistake. My electricity bill went from an average of $60-$75, to a whopping $235! Unfortunately, it's not really an option for me to keep it heated during the cold winter months (I live in Sacramento, CA).

The price has jumped up. When I got mine they ere $40 for the two. May be that when I listed the 80 uses for it they decided they were not getting enough for it. LOL

I have not noticed any increase in my electric bill. The fan is used primarily in a bedroom on the medium setting. It works great!

depends on your water source and how much you use the maker. We change ours every 3 months

I wish I knew, but not as huge an increase in my bills as I expected. But I suggest getting a Faucet Timer, to keep from using longer than need be.

I sold unit, very hard on power. The bill doubled when, I did have unit I did not fill the water container.

Buy a new one. the purchase will pay for itself in the amount of water you are loosing. The mechanism is probably old enough and you don't need to spend money and waste time. I replaced the mechanism and now I am saving about $ 15.00 a month.

I really have no idea...I haven't noticed an increase in my electrical bill. A feature I like about this dryer is that the heat cycle moderates to a cool cycle. I find that my clothes are dry far sooner than I expected and I end up turning off the dryer long before the cycle is complete. I love my little dryer. Simple to use and does what it is supposed to without a problem.

I have my PEET plugged into a Kill-A-Watt meter, with my rates, leaving my dryer plugged in for months, my daily cost is $.09, monthly cost is $2.80.

I have only had the unit for 2 weeks so I haven't been through a complete billing cycle for my electric bill.I used to have an ozone machine many years ago but lost it. I never noticed a significant change in my electric bill when I used it.I believe the draw on your electricity will be quite miniscule.Ed

I use mine all day and night and my bill will go up mabee 30 to 40 dollars a month

like a portable heater-- 15 to 45 dollars per month depending on usage. If its 85 degrees out, heating water to 95 is cheap! If its 40 out--- heating to 104 is expensive!

Yes you can but I have to warn you that watering 10 hours daily will significantly increase your water bill.

I've never noticed an increase in my electric bill from using mine(I run two at once)but I run air conditioners in the summer and edenpure heaters in the winter so the energy consumption of my dehydrators is probably minimal compared to those.

I don't know. I only used it twice last Summer about and hour each time and I didn't know any difference on my electric bill.
