ENERGY EFFICIENT AIR CONDITIONING
ENERGY EFFICIENT AIR CONDITIONING EXPLAINED IN DEPTH
TOP 250 AUSTRALIAN SPLIT SYSTEMS TESTED FOR ENERGY RATING AND CONSUMPTION
SPLIT SYSTEM ENERGY EFFICIENCY
Below you’ll find a table with the top 250 models of split system air conditioner. Every brand you ever heard of and some you haven’t. Both heat and cold extremes were tested and the Australian government energy efficiency database was used as verification. You can find that information here if you wish to fact check us.

THE GROW ROOM CAN’T BE DRAWING 28kw A DAY. Anymore…
I BETTER TAKE ANOTHER PEEP OUT OF THE CURTAIN…
You must make a bucket of cash or cut back on your intake or find yourselves out in the street. Turning the TV off at the wall when you go to work will save 10c a month. You could reduce your shower time to 4 minutes a day, and that will save you another 25c over Winter.
But neither of these stop gap methods will make any real difference. What’s chewing up all this power? 2000w of metal halide in the spare room? No way – we replaced those with LED full spectrum SONT years ago. Now there’s a bucket of cash every 16 weeks thanks to Mrs White Widow. And we can leave the telly on even when we go out.
BACK IN MY DAY…
Sometimes younger folk ask why power cost so much. I remind them that the Greens forced us to close all our reliable, cheap power stations with lies about ‘climate change’. before that, Anna Bligh promised us cheaper power if she could just sell our national power assets to Israeli shelf corporations operating out of the Cayman Islands, which pay no tax. We knew she was lying, yet we let her make the sale and get kicked back later on.
And these people have the cheek to call themselves honourable. My local weed dealer has more honour and integrity than all our politicians combined. That business can be very unkind to people who cheat others.

KEEP COSTS DOWN
KEEPING YOUR POWER COSTS DOWN
An area being cooled should be fairly well sealed. All windows and doors closed. Leaving your bedroom window open a smidge is not unheard of, but any more than an inch and you’re losing tens of litres of air per minute. Air that must be re-conditioned.
The Split system air conditioner needs to be correctly sized for the room its in. The importance of this cannot be over stated. A 5kw in an Australian open plan lounge / dining / kitchen will consume far more power than a 7kw in the same position. An 8kw will consume less again, but there is a limit to where the over sizing benefits improve efficiency. A 9kw would be far too large for that area and you would see no net benefit in efficiency.
Your air conditioning system needs to be installed in the right location. Though not as important as correct sizing, location does play a part. Unit must be the correct distance from the ceiling and side walls. The external unit cannot have any obstruction in front of the fan or it will short cycle, and reduce the output and lifespan of the system
Large glass windows or exposed areas to the western sun, can increase your power consumption. They affect temperature, which makes the unit work harder in effect. Every little aspect matters when calculating energy efficiency.
Clean the filters once per year minimum. In high traffic offices or work environments then every six months. Simply open the grille, remove the filter, and clean it. This will help maintain the energy efficiency as the system ages.
The ideal sleeping temperature is 18 – 22c. On the really hot 35+ days you’ll never get your bedroom to 18, leave it on 22 – 24c. The best temperature setting for energy efficiency is 22 – 24c
ELECTRICITY CAN BE YOUR FRIEND, OR HE CAN KILL YOU IN YOUR SLEEP
LOCATION AND EFFICIENCY
Electricity is a lot like the Eastern Brown snake. I’ve been told that it is more scared of us than we are of it. But don’t believe that shit for a second. Electricity won’t chase you up the road like a badass eastern brown but it’s still pretty f*** dangerous
Electricity is not afraid of anything don’t be fooled kids. He doesn’t take shit and will kill you fast as look at you. Even faster. How long would it take you to turn your head and look at someone? Ok now imagine something so fast that it has already killed you before you think ‘I better look over there’.
That’s right. Your thoughts are carried on electrical impulses so before you have even thought what a shit webpage this is, Mr Electricity has killed you dead. Serves you right for putting shit on my webpage.

SPLIT SYSTEM AIR CON RUNNING COSTS
ENERGY EFFICIENCY OVER THE COURSE OF A YEAR
AIR CONDITIONER
RUNNING COSTS
Energy efficiency is an important part of any appliance consideration today. Adjusting for electricity price rises we have estimated these costs at 0.28c per kilowatt hour. Currently most QLD households pay 28 – 35c on tariff 11. Air Conditioner energy efficiency cost chart is based on 300 hours use a year. As a general rule most AC get between 200 – 400 hours use a year. Mitsubishi have the lowest running costs of all air conditioners, and these images accurately represent what it will cost to run your machine, on a reasonable temperature setting, with little escaping air.
SMALL AIR CONDITIONERS CONSUMPTION?

A small bedroom air conditioner is by far the most common install we get in summer, most people find it hard to sleep in Brisbane during the summer months. The heat can be unbearable. These machines will keep your bedroom cool with not much effort at all. Our charts accurately represent what it will cost to run your machine, on a reasonable temperature setting, with little escaping air.
The energy efficiency running cost figures were calculated on Mitsubishi Heavy Avanti range of Split system air conditioners. The MHI are among the most efficient in the world. The running costs can be verified here. Lesser machines or units with a lower star rating will not achieve these figures. A poorly maintained or positioned Split Air Con will not achieve these figures. The examples above are an average system, in an average home. Doors and windows closed 95% of the time.
