- 1.5
- Heating: 1
- Annual electricity use
- 30,025 kWh
- 12,383 cooling + 17,642 heating
- Estimated running cost
- $9,608 / year
- $801 / month · $96,080 over 10 years
- Capacity
- 90.4 kW cooling
- 92.6 kW heating
16% more electricity than the median of 54 comparable 80 kW and above reverse cycle ducted packaged registrations (25,969 kWh a year) in the mixed zone. Uses less than 39% of them.
Across all 3,680 air conditioner registrations sold in Australia, it uses less than 1% (this compares very different sizes, so the cohort figure above is the useful one).
Annual kWh is the government label figure for a residential user in the mixed zone (Richmond NSW climate: Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth). Mixed climate zone shown by default (Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth); switch to cold or hot. Cost = kWh × 32c/kWh in AUD; change the price above to your tariff.
AIRSTAGE RAQ running cost by climate zone
| Climate zone | kWh / year | Per year | 10 years |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cold zone | 52,477 | $16,793 | $167,926 |
| Mixed zone | 30,025 | $9,608 | $96,080 |
| Hot zone | 39,587 | $12,668 | $126,678 |
At 32c/kWh. Formula: cost = annual kWh × price. The kWh figure is the label’s residential estimate for that zone; commercial-profile figures are in the specifications.
