7.1 kWPanasonic RZ 7.1kW Split System
The 7.1 kW Panasonic RZ Split System suits rooms around 46 to 57 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 Panasonic RZ Split System range, Panasonic'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 7.1 kW options, or ask about supply and installation.
About $452 a year at the current Sydney median electricity rate: $168 of cooling plus $284 of heating, from the official GEMS test figures.
