A clearer view of ownership.
Compare two appliance scenarios using your own purchase price, annual energy use and tariff. Start with like-for-like capacity and the energy label for each model.
Transparent inputs. Visible limitations.
Annual energy cost = annual kWh × tariff. Period total = purchase price + (annual energy cost × years). Simple energy payback = additional purchase price ÷ annual energy-cost reduction, when both are positive.
The example values are assumptions, not quoted products or tariffs. Totals exclude water, installation, financing, repairs, inflation, tariff changes, disposal and residual value. This calculator does not predict AI-related savings. A longer planning period is not a guarantee of appliance lifetime.
