The sticker price is the part everyone quotes. Freight, a dedicated circuit, a pad, assembly and a decade of electricity are the parts that decide what you actually paid.

Chillers cycle rather than run flat out; we assume a 40% duty cycle, which is a working assumption rather than a measurement.
Verified vs estimated. When you start from a tracked product we fill the unit price and the power draw from figures we read at source and dated, and we tell you the published electrical specification. Everything else is an estimate, including the electrical labour: what an electrician charges depends on the run length, your panel and your local market, none of which we can see. Treat those as a starting point to replace with a real quote.
Electricity is modelled as power draw × hours × sessions × 52 weeks at your rate. Real draw varies with ambient temperature, insulation and how long you hold temperature. Nothing here is an engineering calculation, and electrical installation is for a licensed electrician.
Check the electrical figure against your own panel with the electrical checker, see what the unit actually weighs on its product page, and check any advertised discount in the Deal Checker before you treat the sticker price as real.
