Terms of use and calculator disclaimer

Published by WattDollar  ·  Last reviewed 20 August 2026  ·  Next review 20 February 2027

WattDollar is provided free, as-is, for general information. Using it means accepting the terms below.

The estimates

Every figure on this site is a planning estimate. It is not a utility quote, an engineering calculation, an energy audit, a valuation or a guarantee of savings, and it must not be relied on as the sole basis for a purchase, an installation or a contract.

Estimates are produced from typical appliance power figures and average regional electricity prices, or from values you enter. Real consumption depends on your specific equipment, its age and condition, your tariff, your climate and how you use it — all of which can move the answer substantially.

No professional advice

Nothing here is electrical, engineering, financial, tax or legal advice. Electrical work — including installing an EV charger, a heat pump or a whole-home energy monitor — must be done by a qualified professional in line with local codes.

Availability

The site is provided without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose. We do not warrant that it will be available, uninterrupted or free of error. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the publisher is not liable for any loss arising from use of, or reliance on, this site — including any decision made on the basis of an estimate it produced.

Your use of the site

You may use WattDollar for personal and business purposes, and link to it freely. You may not scrape it at a volume that degrades it for others, misrepresent its output as a utility quote or professional assessment, or reproduce substantial parts of its content as your own. Embedding the calculator on another site requires prior agreement — see partners.

Third-party links and advertising

The site links to third-party sites and carries advertising served by Google. We do not control that content and are not responsible for it. Some outbound links may earn commission; see the affiliate disclosure.

Privacy

What the site processes, stores and shares is described in the privacy and cookie notice.

Changes

These terms may change; the review date above changes with them. Continued use after a change means accepting it.

WattDollar gives planning estimates, not utility quotes, engineering calculations or a guarantee of savings. Wattages are typical figures — check the label on your appliance and the per-kWh price on your bill for your own numbers.

The calculator runs in your browser and we run no server that stores what you enter, though a share link you create carries your figures in its address. Your rate and appliance list are saved in your browser's local storage so the page remembers them; the site carries Google ads, and Cloudflare serves it. The privacy notice has the detail.
