8 kWPanasonic Z Series 8kW Split System
The 8kW Panasonic Z Series (model CS-Z80YKR) is sized for open-plan living and dining areas. As a guide it suits a typical insulated room of roughly 53 to 64m²; sun exposure and ceiling height move that band. Like the rest of the Z Series it runs nanoe X air purification around the clock. If the space is bigger, has high ceilings or strong afternoon sun, step up to the 9.5kW.
The Panasonic Z Series 8kW uses 652 kWh annually for cooling and 1101 kWh annually for heating, based on official GEMS test data for Sydney's climate zone. These figures reflect typical usage patterns in Sydney and form the basis of the running cost estimate shown separately on this page. The system's efficiency is rated at 3.34 AEER for cooling and 3.83 ACOP for heating.
For cooling, the system carries a 3.5-star energy rating under Sydney's zoned label system, while heating is rated at 2.5 stars. The unit uses R32 refrigerant. Your actual annual energy consumption will depend on how often you run the system, your temperature settings, and factors such as insulation and sun exposure in your home.
