Electricity pricec/kWh

Energy rating (cooling): 5; Heating: 2.5
Annual electricity use: 1,288 kWh; 146 cooling + 1,142 heating
Estimated running cost: $425 / year; $35 / month · $4,250 over 10 years
Capacity: 3.5 kW cooling; 3.7 kW heating

8% less electricity than the median of 187 comparable 3.5 kW reverse cycle split system registrations (1,395 kWh a year) in the cold zone. Uses less than 80% of them.

Across all 3,612 air conditioner registrations sold in Australia, it uses less than 84% (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.
