Gree GWH28AGEXH-K6DNA1E/O / GWH28QEXH-K6DNC8E/I is a 8.5 kW reverse cycle split system air conditioner registered under Australiaβs Energy Rating (GEMS) scheme (registration AAC6796).
- Energy rating (cooling)
- 4
- Heating: 2.5
- Annual electricity use
- 1,750 kWh
- 617 cooling + 1,133 heating
- Estimated running cost
- $560 / year
- $47 / month Β· $5,600 over 10 years
- Capacity
- 8.5 kW cooling
- 9 kW heating
5% less electricity than the median of 125 comparable 8 kW reverse cycle split system registrations (1,834 kWh a year) in the mixed zone. Uses less than 79% of them.
Across all 3,681 air conditioner registrations sold in Australia, it uses less than 56% (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 Γ 32c/kWh in AUD; change the price above to your tariff.
Gree running cost by climate zone
