Electricity pricec/kWh

Energy rating (cooling): 2; Heating: 2.5
Annual electricity use: 3,622 kWh; 1,435 cooling + 2,187 heating
Estimated running cost: $1,159 / year; $97 / month · $11,590 over 10 years
Capacity: 14 kW cooling; 16 kW heating

2% more electricity than the median of 117 comparable 14 kW reverse cycle ducted split system registrations (3,549 kWh a year) in the mixed zone. Uses less than 39% of them.

Across all 3,680 air conditioner registrations sold in Australia, it uses less than 28% (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.

Mitsubishi Electric running cost by climate zone

Cold zone (Canberra, Hobart, Ballarat, alpine areas)	6,789	$181	$2,172	$10,862	$21,725
Mixed zone (Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth)	3,622	$97	$1,159	$5,795	$11,590
Hot zone (Brisbane, Darwin, Cairns, Townsville)	4,412	$118	$1,412	$7,059	$14,118

At 32c/kWh. Formula: cost = annual kWh × price. The kWh figure is the label’s residential estimate for that zone; commercial-profile figures are in the specifications.
