Climate zone

Electricity pricec/kWh

Energy rating (cooling): 2; Heating: 2
Annual electricity use: 3,260 kWh; 480 cooling + 2,780 heating
Estimated running cost: $1,076 / year; $90 / month · $10,758 over 10 years
Capacity: 7.1 kW cooling; 7.6 kW heating

4% more electricity than the median of 203 comparable 7 kW reverse cycle split system registrations (3,143 kWh a year) in the cold zone. Uses less than 37% of them.

Across all 3,611 air conditioner registrations sold in Australia, it uses less than 58% (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.

Mitsubishi Electric running cost by climate zone

Cold zone (Canberra, Hobart, Ballarat, alpine areas)	3,260	$90	$1,076	$5,379	$10,758
Mixed zone (Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth)	1,811	$50	$598	$2,988	$5,976
