- Energy rating (cooling)
- 5
- Heating: 2.5
- Annual electricity use
- 1,043 kWh
- 108 cooling + 935 heating
- Estimated running cost
- $344 / year
- $29 / month · $3,442 over 10 years
- Capacity
- 2.7 kW cooling
- 3.2 kW heating
3% less electricity than the median of 177 comparable 2.5 kW reverse cycle split system registrations (1,073 kWh a year) in the cold zone. Uses less than 53% of them.
Across all 3,611 air conditioner registrations sold in Australia, it uses less than 88% (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 | 1,043 | $344 | $3,442 |
| Mixed zone | 525 | $173 | $1,733 |
| Hot zone | 550 | $182 | $1,815 |
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.
