13% more electricity than the median of 7 comparable 12.5 kW reverse cycle fixed registrations (4,793 kWh a year) in the cold zone. Uses less than 0% of them.

Across all 3,611 air conditioner registrations sold in Australia, it uses less than 36% (this compares very different sizes, so the cohort figure above is the useful one).
