Electricity pricec/kWh

Energy rating (cooling): 1.5; Heating: 1
Annual electricity use: 6,372 kWh; 2,634 cooling + 3,738 heating
Estimated running cost: $2,039 / year; $170 / month · $20,390 over 10 years
Capacity: 22.4 kW cooling; 18.9 kW heating

7% more electricity than the median of 15 comparable 20 kW reverse cycle ducted packaged registrations (5,980 kWh a year) in the mixed zone. Uses less than 33% of them.

Across all 3,680 air conditioner registrations sold in Australia, it uses less than 13% (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.
