21% more electricity than the median of 17 comparable 7 kW reverse cycle fixed registrations (2,850 kWh a year) in the cold zone. Uses less than 6% of them.

Across all 3,611 air conditioner registrations sold in Australia, it uses less than 55% (this compares very different sizes, so the cohort figure above is the useful one).
