2% less electricity than the median of 37 comparable 20 kW reverse cycle ducted split system registrations (11,029 kWh a year) in the cold zone. Uses less than 54% of them.

Across all 3,611 air conditioner registrations sold in Australia, it uses less than 13% (this compares very different sizes, so the cohort figure above is the useful one).
