7.1 kWDaikin Skywall 7.1kW Split System
The 7.1 kW Daikin Skywall Split System cools a room of up to about 51 to 59 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 Daikin Skywall Split System range, Daikin's split system line, in 5 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 7.1 kW options, see every 7kW split system ranked by running cost, or ask about supply and installation.
About $619 a year at the current Sydney median electricity rate: $241 of cooling plus $378 of heating, from the official GEMS test figures.
The Daikin Skywall 7.1kW uses 726 kWh annually for cooling and 1141 kWh annually for heating under official GEMS test conditions for Sydney's climate zone. These figures reflect typical year-round operation in a standard residential setting and provide the basis for calculating your running costs against current Sydney electricity rates.
The system carries a 2-star energy rating for both cooling and heating under the Australian zoned labelling scheme. It delivers a cooling efficiency (AEER) of 3.13 and heating efficiency (ACOP) of 3.31. The Daikin Skywall uses R32 refrigerant, a lower global warming potential alternative to older refrigerant types.
