[attachmentid=10279468] This is the sticker from a Panasonic inverter aircon already at my house bought about two years ago.
Now I'm looking for another aircon for another room and went to home pro. Their RM99 new installation promo very attractive. They only have two Panasonic models in stock though.
[attachmentid=10279469] This one is non inverter yet has a lower kWh rating then my inverter unit
[attachmentid=10279480]Then there's this one which is quite high end Pansonic inverter unit with the air purification.
My questions is
1) got 5 star energy rated air con exist now?
2) they obviously changed their testing methodology, when did this happen?
3) how to find kWh rating online?
4) how to know if kWh rating is old standard or new standard? Just relised that bottom of sticker got "Tested According To"
thank you.
1) There still are 5 Star Rated Inverters if you refering to Panasonic, Sky Series R32, X-Premium Inverter R32, Premium Inverter R32, Standard R32 Inverters have them. R410a Inverts range from 3 star to 5 star
2)ST changed their rating system based on CSPF now. For the same CS/CU-PS9TKH-1 Inverter 3 star and current useage is 1021kw/h. CSPF rating came in somewhere in March this year.
3) Go download the latest air conditioner brochure from Panasonic Malaysia, the energy labels are in there.
