Climate zone

Electricity pricec/kWh

Energy rating (cooling): 2; Heating: 2
Annual electricity use: 6,060 kWh; 816 cooling + 5,244 heating
Estimated running cost: $2,000 / year; $167 / month · $19,998 over 10 years
Capacity: 12.5 kW cooling; 14 kW heating

1% less electricity than the median of 146 comparable 12.5 kW reverse cycle ducted split system registrations (6,125 kWh a year) in the cold zone. Uses less than 53% of them.

Across all 3,611 air conditioner registrations sold in Australia, it uses less than 30% (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.
