The unit I'm using now draws 7.6 amps and is only rated at 40 pints. So in a perfect world the April aire would run half the time of my 40 pint unit and use only 2/3s the power while it is running half the time. Those are the things to look at. Another might be your fridge or freezer. If those are older a new one may save money.
ITD, I spent a couple of hours this morning analyzing my appliance use. I've provided a list in the other thread.
