A 250W dehumidifier will use 1KWH of electricity every 4 hours (about £1.40 at the new rates).

The "recovered heat" is irrelevant to the actual cost of electricity while its running.

However, it does (should) mean you need to run it less hours overall to maintain a desired room temperature.
34p at the new rates per 4 hours
