5% less electricity than the median of 71 comparable 16 kW reverse cycle ducted split system registrations (4,079 kWh a year) in the mixed zone. Uses less than 80% of them.
Across all 3,681 air conditioner registrations sold in Australia, it uses less than 24% (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
| Climate zone | kWh / year | Per year | 10 years |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cold zone | 7,486 | $2,396 | $23,955 |

| Hot zone | 4,388 | $1,404 | $14,042 |
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.
