Model MSZ-AP42VGKD2

The 4.2kW Mitsubishi Electric MSZ-AP Split (model MSZ-AP42VGKD2) is sized for living rooms and master suites. As a guide it suits a typical insulated room of roughly 28 to 34m²; sun exposure and ceiling height move that band. It sits in the lower half of the Mitsubishi Electric MSZ-AP Split range. If the space is bigger, has high ceilings or strong afternoon sun, step up to the 5kW.

What it costs to run

The Mitsubishi Electric MSZ-AP 4.2kW uses 318 kWh annually for cooling and 677 kWh annually for heating, based on official government testing in Sydney's climate zone. These figures form the basis of your running cost estimate when combined with your local electricity rate. The system achieves a 4-star cooling efficiency rating and a 2.5-star heating rating under the zoned labelling system for Sydney.

The unit has a rated cooling efficiency (AEER) of 3.52 and a heating efficiency (ACOP) of 3.77, meaning it delivers that many kilowatts of heating or cooling output for each kilowatt of electrical energy consumed. It uses R32 refrigerant. Your actual energy consumption will depend on how often and how intensively you run the system throughout the year.
