does anyone have a running BlueRidge mini split running and can tell me an approximate monthly cost? Mike
Sorry, I have an electric car, central air in the house, and the mini split, so don't have a way to break it down. I'm in So cal, and don't have the mini split running all the time. FWIW I haven't noticed that the kwh usage goes up that much the months that I do use it.

I left mine on all summer and I think I can say about 25 to 40 bucks a month in the warmest month. This is not 100% accurate and scientific...just a guess, when the bill comes in i Pay it

Is that running it 24/7?

Yes, to be honest it might be a little bit higher than that in the dead of summer but I haven’t really no a huge spike. It was in the high 90’s yesterday and it was set on 81 and when8 walked in the shop it was a very comfortable feeling. Keeping it dry is key. So 81 degrees with no humidity is way more comfortable than 95 with high humidity. About the same time I added it to my shop I also added a pool , a sunroom, and a hot tub so my power bill went up from all that. It’s hard to put exact numbers on all the adds.Is that running it 24/7?
only time I ever shut it off is if i will have the garage door open for long periods of time ,usually in the spring or fall and sometimes in the winter on beautiful days. Other than that it’s on 24/7

Update. Both my PTAC and mini split have been installed for around 10 years now. The mini split has run 24/7 in my shop and has been great and efficient. The PTAC I only use occasionally when we use the sunroom but performs very well.
