Gree GUD71W1/NhC-S / GUD71PHS1/C-S is a 7.1 kW reverse cycle ducted split system heat pump registered for sale in New Zealand under the trans-Tasman E3 energy rating scheme (registration AAC8025).
- Energy rating (cooling)
- 3.5
- Heating: 2
- Annual electricity use
- 3,288 kWh
- 373 cooling + 2,915 heating
- Estimated running cost
- $1,085 / year
- $90 / month · $10,850 over 10 years
- Capacity
- 7.1 kW cooling
- 8 kW heating
About the same electricity as the median of 80 comparable 7 kW reverse cycle ducted split system registrations (3,279 kWh a year) in the cold zone. Uses less than 48% of them.
Across all 3,611 air conditioner registrations sold in Australia, it uses less than 57% (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 | 3,288 | $1,085 | $10,850 |
| Mixed zone | 1,607 | $530 | $5,303 |
| Hot zone | 1,862 | $614 | $6,145 |
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.
