Air Conditioner Cost Calculator

Estimate air-conditioner energy use and monthly cost from kW draw and hours.

How it is calculated

Energy (kWh) = air conditioner electrical draw (kW) × hours per day × thermostat on-time × days. Inverter air conditioners use less than the rated draw once the room is cool. Cost = kWh × your rate.

Results are estimates for planning, not bills or professional advice. For generator or inverter hookups use a changeover switch installed by a registered electrician with a certificate of compliance (CoC).
