6 kWCarrier Indigo 6kW Split System
The 6 kW Carrier Indigo Split System cools a room of up to about 45 to 50 square metres as a guide. That is from Mitsubishi Heavy Industries' sizing chart for an insulated room: the larger figure if it faces north, the smaller if it faces east. Sun exposure, ceiling height and insulation move those figures, which is why we confirm sizing before we quote.
Part of the Carrier Indigo Split System range, Carrier's split system line, in 6 sizes. Running costs below use the Sydney median rate; the Eastern Suburbs and Western Sydney pages cost systems on their own network tariffs. Check the size against your rooms, compare it with other 6 kW options, or ask about supply and installation.
About $430 a year at the current Sydney median electricity rate: $150 of cooling plus $280 of heating, from the official GEMS test figures.
The Carrier Indigo 6kW uses 452 kWh annually for cooling and 844 kWh annually for heating under official GEMS testing conditions for Sydney's climate zone. These figures reflect typical household use patterns and allow you to calculate running costs based on current electricity rates. The system achieves a cooling efficiency rating of 4 stars and a heating efficiency rating of 2 stars in the Sydney zone.
The Carrier Indigo 6kW has a rated cooling efficiency of 3.39 AEER and heating efficiency of 3.40 ACOP. It uses R32 refrigerant. Your actual energy consumption will depend on your usage patterns, thermostat settings, home insulation and local weather conditions.
