Electricity pricec/kWh

Energy rating (cooling): 2.5; Heating: 0
Annual electricity use: 25,219 kWh; 5,174 cooling + 20,045 heating
Estimated running cost: $8,070 / year; $673 / month · $80,701 over 10 years
Capacity: 56 kW cooling; 63 kW heating

83% more electricity than the median of 42 comparable 50 kW reverse cycle multi-split / vrf registrations (13,803 kWh a year) in the mixed zone. Uses less than 10% 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.
