- Energy rating (cooling)
- 2.5
- Heating: 1.5
- Annual electricity use
- 6,406 kWh
- 763 cooling + 5,643 heating
- Estimated running cost
- $2,114 / year
- $176 / month · $21,140 over 10 years
- Capacity
- 11.5 kW cooling
- 14 kW heating
5% more electricity than the median of 146 comparable 12.5 kW reverse cycle ducted split system registrations (6,125 kWh a year) in the cold zone. Uses less than 36% of them.
Across all 3,611 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 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.
