Climate zone

Electricity pricec/kWh

Energy rating (cooling): 1.5; Heating: 1.5
Annual electricity use: 5,623 kWh; 976 cooling + 4,647 heating
Estimated running cost: $1,856 / year; $155 / month · $18,556 over 10 years
Capacity: 12.1 kW cooling; 12.1 kW heating

6% less electricity than the median of 7 comparable 12.5 kW reverse cycle ducted multi-split / vrf registrations (6,009 kWh a year) in the cold zone. Uses less than 86% of them.

Across all 3,612 air conditioner registrations sold in Australia, it uses less than 34% (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.
