5 kWDaikin Lite 5kW Split System
The 5kW Daikin Lite Split System (model FTXF50WVMA) is sized for living rooms and master suites. As a guide, it cools a room of up to about 36 to 43 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. If the space is bigger, has high ceilings or strong afternoon sun, step up to the 6kW.
Part of the Daikin Lite 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 5 kW options, see every 5kW split system ranked by running cost, or ask about supply and installation.
About $378 a year at the current Sydney median electricity rate: $146 of cooling plus $232 of heating, from the official GEMS test figures.
The Daikin Lite 5kW is rated at 3 stars for cooling and 2.5 stars for heating under the Sydney climate zone energy label. According to official GEMS registration data, the system uses 442 kWh annually for cooling and 701 kWh annually for heating. These are standard test figures that reflect performance under the Sydney climate zone conditions.
The Daikin Lite 5kW achieves a rated cooling efficiency (AEER) of 3.46 and heating efficiency (ACOP) of 3.59. The system uses R32 refrigerant. Your running cost will depend on how much you operate the unit and your local electricity rate, which is calculated separately on this page.
