- 3
- Heating: 2
- Annual electricity use
- 6,434 kWh
- 785 cooling + 5,649 heating
- Estimated running cost
- $2,123 / year

- Capacity
- 14 kW cooling
- 16 kW heating
5% less electricity than the median of 124 comparable 14 kW reverse cycle ducted split system registrations (6,763 kWh a year) in the cold zone. Uses less than 76% of them.
Across all 3,611 air conditioner registrations sold in Australia, it uses less than 28% (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.
