- Energy rating (cooling)
- 2
- Heating: 1
- Annual electricity use
- 5,594 kWh
- 713 cooling + 4,881 heating
- Estimated running cost
- $1,846 / year
- $154 / month Β· $18,460 over 10 years
- Capacity
- 9.5 kW cooling
- 10.8 kW heating
18% more electricity than the median of 136 comparable 10 kW reverse cycle ducted split system registrations (4,758 kWh a year) in the cold zone. Uses less than 13% of them.
Across all 3,612 air conditioner registrations sold in Australia, it uses less than 34% (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 Γ 33c/kWh in NZD; change the price above to your tariff.
