Gree FGR20Pd/D1Na-X(Au)(O) / FGR20Pd/D1Na-X(Au)(I) Heat Pump
Gree FGR20Pd/D1Na-X(Au)(O) / FGR20Pd/D1Na-X(Au)(I) is a 20.4 kW reverse cycle ducted split system heat pump registered for sale in New Zealand under the trans-Tasman E3 energy rating scheme (registration AAC9973).
- Energy rating (cooling)
- 2
- Heating: 1.5
- Annual electricity use
- 9,971 kWh
- 1,452 cooling + 8,519 heating
- Estimated running cost
- $3,290 / year
- $274 / month · $32,904 over 10 years
- Capacity
- 20.4 kW cooling
- 22.5 kW heating
10% 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 68% of them.
Across all 3,611 air conditioner registrations sold in Australia, it uses less than 14% (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.
Gree running cost by climate zone
| Climate zone | kWh / year | Per year | 10 years |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cold zone | 9,971 | $3,290 | $32,904 |
| Mixed zone | 5,406 | $1,784 | $17,840 |
| Hot zone | 7,042 | $2,324 | $23,239 |
At 33c/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.
