💰 Usage Costs & Running Expenses

Understanding the true cost of pool ownership means looking beyond the purchase price. The BADU Delta 13’s efficient 0.45kW power consumption translates directly to lower electricity bills.

📊 Annual Running Cost Calculation

Base Data:

• UK electricity rate: £0.2635 per kWh (Ofgem Price Cap, Q4 2025)
• BADU Delta 13 power consumption: 0.45 kW (from manufacturer specifications)

🏊 Example 1: 6-Month Seasonal Use

Usage: 8 hours daily × 180 days = 1,440 hours/year

Calculation:

• ✅ Annual cost: 0.45 kW × 1,440 hrs × £0.2635 = £170.75

☀️ Example 2: Extended Season Use

Usage: 10 hours daily × 240 days = 2,400 hours/year

Calculation:

• ✅ Annual cost: 0.45 kW × 2,400 hrs × £0.2635 = £284.58

🏢 Example 3: Year-Round Operation

Usage: 8 hours daily × 365 days = 2,920 hours/year

Calculation:

• ✅ Annual cost: 0.45 kW × 2,920 hrs × £0.2635 = £346.35

⚡ Daily Running Cost Reference

Daily Hours	Electricity Cost
6 hours	£0.71
8 hours	£0.95
10 hours	£1.19
12 hours	£1.42

Calculation: Hours × 0.45 kW × £0.2635/kWh
