Description of Service

CrunchYourDollars provides free online sizing calculators and running-cost tools for home equipment, including generators, home battery backup, portable power stations, water softeners and appliance electricity costs, together with supporting explanations.

Not Professional Advice

All content, calculators and tools on this site are provided for informational purposes only. Sizing results are estimates based on the figures you enter and on published formulas and manufacturer specifications; they are not an engineering design, an electrical load calculation under the National Electrical Code, or a water treatment prescription for your specific supply.

Work involving an electrical panel, gas line, fuel storage, well or plumbing must be performed or checked by a licensed professional. Never operate a generator indoors or backfeed a panel through an appliance outlet. We are not responsible for purchases, installations or decisions made based on the information or tools on this site.

Accuracy of Information

We strive to provide accurate and up-to-date information, but we make no warranties or representations about the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of any content on this site. Product specifications, prices, availability and electricity rates change frequently. Calculator results are estimates and may differ from actual outcomes.

Affiliate Links and Advertising

CrunchYourDollars may contain affiliate links to third-party products and services. When you click on these links and make a purchase or take an action, we may receive a commission at no additional cost to you. These affiliate relationships do not influence our calculator results or editorial content.

We also display advertisements through Google AdSense. The presence of ads does not constitute an endorsement of the advertised products or services.
