Methodology

How Calc2Save calculates the totals

  • Monthly-billing annual cost = monthly list price × 12.
  • Five-year cost = current annualized price × 5; future price increases are not predicted.
  • Cost per hour = annualized price ÷ (hours per day × 365).
  • Annual savings = monthly-billing annual cost − the provider’s annual price.

Calculations are informational and are rounded to the nearest cent.
