* Check your electric bill and enter your local kW rate. Power Factor is a measure of motor efficiency. For Kasco equipment, use .95. When comparing competitors or other types of equipment, knowing the exact Power Factor will give you a more accurate result. * Total Unit Efficiency gives you a number of HP per Watt. The higher the decimal, the more HP performance you get out of each Watt of power used.				16
