Climate zone

Electricity pricec/kWh

Energy rating (cooling): 2.5; Heating: 1.5
Annual electricity use: 7,180 kWh; 829 cooling + 6,351 heating
Estimated running cost: $2,369 / year; $197 / month · $23,694 over 10 years
Capacity: 13.5 kW cooling; 16 kW heating

8% 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 26% of them.

Across all 3,611 air conditioner registrations sold in Australia, it uses less than 24% (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.
