8 kWCarrier Indigo 8kW Split System
The 8 kW Carrier Indigo Split System suits rooms around 52 to 64 square metres as a guide. Sun exposure, ceiling height and insulation move that band, 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 8 kW options, or ask about supply and installation.
About $505 a year at the current Sydney median electricity rate: $194 of cooling plus $311 of heating, from the official GEMS test figures.
