Electricity pricec/kWh

Energy rating (cooling): 1; Heating: 1
Annual electricity use: 14,831 kWh; 6,191 cooling + 8,640 heating
Estimated running cost: $4,746 / year; $395 / month · $47,459 over 10 years
Capacity: 43.3 kW cooling; 43.6 kW heating

158% more electricity than the median of 13 comparable 40 kW reverse cycle ducted packaged registrations (5,740 kWh a year) in the mixed zone. Uses less than 8% of them.

Across all 3,680 air conditioner registrations sold in Australia, it uses less than 4% (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.
