Energy rating (cooling): 3.5
Annual electricity use: 435 kWh
Estimated running cost: $144 / year; $12 / month · $1,436 over 10 years
Capacity: 8 kW cooling

About the same electricity as the median of 6 comparable 8 kW cooling only split system registrations (437 kWh a year) in the cold zone. Uses less than 50% of them.

Across all 3,611 air conditioner registrations sold in Australia, it uses less than 96% (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.
