Yes this. We have a DH in the basement and runs almost non-stop 6-months out of the year, and of course a freezer in the basement, which are notorious at gobbling up electric as well.

It's only 9 cu. ft. and energy start rated. It claims $24 annual running cost a year but who knows.

that's a small one and isn't terrible. People have the very large ones -- that are the size of a standard fridge but are all freezer. They're usually butt old and in grandma's basement for the past 50 years and just chew up electricity.
