How to read an energy label.




If you take a look at the above energy label, you will notice two red and two blue readings.
The top two readings (red and blue) represent the power output in heating and cooling modes.
The bottom two readings (red and blue) represent power input in heating and cooling modes.

  • In cooling mode (top blue corner) - this air conditioner will output 5.2kW.
  • In cooling mode (bottom blue corner) - this air conditioner will input 1.58kW.
  • (For every 1.58kW you input, you output 5.2kW!)
  • In heating mode (top red corner) - this air conditioner will output 6.7kW.
  • In heating mode (bottom red corner) - this air conditioner will input 1.63kW.
  • (For every 1.63kW you input, you output 6.7kW!)
As you can see, a split system air conditioner will output far more energy than it consumes!
