    Just curious, if you were to run AC medium cold pretty much all the time, how much would it cost per month?

    Gerry,

    It depends on the efficiency of the AC unit itself, and the size of area you are trying to cool. For a typical hotel room, figure on about $10us a day - and that is if you dont leave the doors or windows open....

    Assuming it runs all the time. 1.5 kW would be your typical window air conditioner.

    1.5 kW x 24 hours/day x 30 days/month x $22/kWh = $23,760 JMD per month (approx $224 USD per month)
