How much does it cost to run?

It ended up being an extra $10 per month in CT during the winter. It was also the only heat source in the room.

maybe a bit. But not enough that I would quit using it. Having a house full of animals it seems to help keep the air clearer. So the little it cost to run is a plus.

Oh yes, definitely! You can even do a run based on how many calories you want to burn.

I live in California. Set up spa in mid October, it is now mid January. It has consistently cost over $100 per month to operate this spa. Other than that I love it and wish I could keep it but $100 a month is ridiculous.

From what I can tell, there isn't much. When I bought mine, it cost about $200, but I love it. In fact, even though I'm on a minimalist kick, I am planning on keeping this. I love the fact that it has Tiny House multiple uses, like a footstool, bench (yes, you can sit on it) or table. And the mood change is awesome. I love it.

One. We bought an extra; can't remember where. Comes in handy for longer runs. :-)

They'll charge exactly what you use. It's just like running your air conditioner. If you run it for 2 hours they charge you for 2 hours. Electricity is electricity. They are not going to charge you more because you own an electric car.

I'm not sure, but I think you can find the answer on their website, megahome.comI read somewhere that it costs approximately 35 cents per gallon to make, and that's cheaper and a lot more convenient than buying it at the store, and lugging it home.

On average, it costs no more than a single light bulb to run a Blueair system 24/7! I know it's not specific watts used but it depends on what speed the unit is on.

Roughly speaking, 1 watt run 24 hours a day costs $1 per year. So a 35 watt GoldenRod (or a 35 watt light bulb) used year-round and never turned off would cost you $35.Source: http://science.howstuffworks.com/environmental/energy/watt-year-dollar.htm

We have two I was against the first but I told my husband to go ahead and buy one thinking I would prove him wrong but guess what I was wrong the first year we saved $800. That was checking out our gas bill and electric bill, this year we bought the newer model but when they started putting a limit on the gas here in Mi. We brought the other one in and run both our electric bill was around $325 we figured we saved money by running them both plus we didn't have to worry about running out of gas. In a normal winter we only run one and if I remember right the electric ran between $175 to $225 I hope this helps you we have been using one for 5 or 6 years now.

Yes, let it run. Place it as close above your head as you can manage. DETAIL: Costs only $1 per year to run, so maker does not provide on/off. Let it run. Best location is over bed for most prolonged and most intense receipt of ions. Virtually inaudible. Keep other electronics at distance - see instructions. I plug mine into power strip with switch in case I take laptop to bed. Abundance of good info from manufacturer; read it!!!

i have 3 duraflames turn on in winter, one use almost 24 hours a day, one for overnight and one use as needed. my highest bill was about $350/month, but that's only supplemental heat and not including my gas boiler heater,which is another $350 per month. so total heating bill per month in winter is $650 per month. if you want warmer in a dedicated room then go for it, if you want to heat the whole house, forget about it.

Depending on your local electricity rates probably somewhere around $1.25 to 1.50 per unit a day. However as I remarked in my evaluation of the units.....Don't buy it!!! They crack and the company will not do anything about it!!

There is a monthly fee for the software that ranges from $14/month to $75/month depending on what functionality you want in the system. The lite version which costs $14/month is free if you process your credit cards through us, however, the lite version is an extremely basic option that doesn't include things like inventory reports. In regards to set up you can set up the system yourself and add products manually or you can provide us with an excel file with your products information for us to Upload. To upload a product file into the system starts at a one time charge of $50 (the exact price depends on what information is in the excel sheet and how many products you have). We do offer free training which we highly recommend to everyone so we can walk them through how to set up their system.

Thanks very much for the response. After entering my question, I figured out how to fake it myself with what I've got. I just put the cost of electricity at 1.00 per kWh. So now after any amount of time, instead of it telling me how much money I've used each month/year, etc... I just read how many kWh I've used each time period. Sometimes you have to be smarter than the $20 device, but it isn't always easy. :)

Sorry,no idea. I simply run it at max. I doubt there's any downside so long as you don't peer directly into it. Good luck/stay happy.
