Electricity pricec/kWh

Energy rating (cooling): 2; Heating: 1.5
Annual electricity use: 23,435 kWh; 9,972 cooling + 13,463 heating
Estimated running cost: $7,499 / year; $625 / month · $74,992 over 10 years
Capacity: 83.7 kW cooling; 80.5 kW heating

10% less 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 65% of them.

Across all 3,680 air conditioner registrations sold in Australia, it uses less than 2% (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.
