38% more electricity than the median of 66 comparable 14 kW reverse cycle split system registrations (6,658 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 15% (this compares very different sizes, so the cohort figure above is the useful one).
