APAC S030OVR3SA / S030ILR3SA-FR is a 32.1 kW reverse cycle ducted split system heat pump registered for sale in New Zealand under the trans-Tasman E3 energy rating scheme (registration AAC7459).
- Energy rating (cooling)
- 1.5
- Heating: 0.5
- Annual electricity use
- 17,568 kWh
- 2,557 cooling + 15,011 heating
- Estimated running cost
- $5,797 / year
- $483 / month · $57,974 over 10 years
- Capacity
- 32.1 kW cooling
- 26.5 kW heating
486% more electricity than the median of 12 comparable 35 kW reverse cycle ducted split system registrations (3,000 kWh a year) in the cold zone. Uses less than 0% of them.
Across all 3,611 air conditioner registrations sold in Australia, it uses less than 8% (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 cold zone (Canberra climate: Canberra, Hobart, Ballarat, alpine areas). All of New Zealand is the cold zone on the Zoned Energy Rating Label. Cost = kWh × 33c/kWh in NZD; change the price above to your tariff.
