4% less electricity than the median of 80 comparable 7 kW reverse cycle ducted split system registrations (3,279 kWh a year) in the cold zone. Uses less than 64% of them.

Across all 3,611 air conditioner registrations sold in Australia, it uses less than 59% (this compares very different sizes, so the cohort figure above is the useful one).
