Westinghouse WSD91HWB-I/WSD91HWA-E is a 9.1 kW reverse cycle split system air conditioner registered under Australiaβs Energy Rating (GEMS) scheme (registration AAC7558).
- Energy rating (cooling)
- 4
- Heating: 2
- Annual electricity use
- 2,164 kWh
- 658 cooling + 1,506 heating
- Estimated running cost
- $692 / year
- $58 / month Β· $6,925 over 10 years
- Capacity
- 9.1 kW cooling
- 10.4 kW heating
3% less electricity than the median of 122 comparable 10 kW reverse cycle split system registrations (2,236 kWh a year) in the mixed zone. Uses less than 60% of them.
Across all 3,680 air conditioner registrations sold in Australia, it uses less than 48% (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.

| Climate zone | kWh / year | Per year | 10 years |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cold zone | 4,785 | $1,531 | $15,312 |
| Mixed zone | 2,164 | $692 | $6,925 |
| Hot zone | 2,171 | $695 | $6,947 |
At 32c/kWh. Formula: cost = annual kWh Γ price. The kWh figure is the labelβs residential estimate for that zone; commercial-profile figures are in the specifications.
