6 kWDaikin Alira X 6kW Split System
The 6kW Daikin Alira X Split System is sized for large living rooms and small open-plan areas. As a guide, it cools a room of up to about 45 to 50 m². 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. Western sun, poor insulation and high ceilings bring it down. It sits in the upper half of the Daikin Alira X Split System range. If the space is bigger, has high ceilings or strong afternoon sun, step up to the 7.1kW.
Part of the Daikin Alira X Split System range, Daikin's split system line, in 7 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 $399 a year at the current Sydney median electricity rate: $136 of cooling plus $263 of heating, from the official GEMS test figures.
The Daikin Alira X 6kW has an official annual cooling energy requirement of 412 kWh and annual heating energy requirement of 793 kWh under GEMS test conditions for Sydney's climate zone.
