The cooling and condensing are equal, so they
can be ignored. Check the wattage used, and
that's the added (electric) heat.

Plus latent heat of vaporization -- you're
de-evaporating water, which
gives off quite a lot by volume.

Silly! You de-evaporate water by WEIGHT.
Not volume. And some call it "condensing"
the water. In any case, yes, that's a lot
of latent heat.
