What is Reverse Cycle Air Conditioning?

A reverse cycle air conditioner is a versatile climate control solution that offers cooling and heating functionality to provide year-round comfort. They can take many forms including:

Reverse cycle air conditioning uses a refrigeration cycle that will either heat or cool your home depending on the season.

How Does It Work?

To cool your home in summer, the air conditioner draws warm air from inside your house and releases it outdoors to lower the indoor room temperature. Come winter when you're looking to heat your home, it reverses the process, drawing in heat from the outdoor air (even in cooler weather) and transferring it indoors.

The reverse cycle process relies on refrigerant gas and a compressor to facilitate the transfer of heat. Whether you have a split system air conditioner, a window unit or ducted air conditioning, the process is effectively the same. Reverse cycle units are energy-efficient and provide year-round comfort with both heating and cooling functions.

Benefits of Reverse Cycle Air Conditioners

Reverse cycle air conditioning offers Australian homeowners a wealth of advantages. They include:

  • Energy efficiency: Reverse cycle air conditioners are a great way to reduce your energy usage and, as a result, cut down your energy bills. Instead of using separate appliances to heat and cool your home, you can do it all from the one convenient unit.
  • Reduced greenhouse gas emissions: Their energy efficiency and eco-friendly operation lead to vastly lower greenhouse gas emissions, promoting a healthier planet.
  • Releasing heat: These units are great at capturing ambient warmth and transferring it in and out of the house. It ensures the system doesn't waste energy generating heat from scratch.
  • Ducted and split system options: Designed for versatility, reverse cycle air conditioners come available as ducted or split system models. A split system air conditioner gives you greater efficiency and more control over the temperature in a single room or smaller spaces. Ducted systems, on the other hand, can provide cold or heated air to multiple rooms at once.

Given these remarkable benefits, investing in reverse cycle air conditioning is a forward-thinking choice for home comfort, environmental responsibility, and cost savings.

Reverse Cycle Air Conditioning FAQ

Reverse cycle refers to an air conditioner that can cool your home in the hot summer and warm it in winter. A system uses a coil, a compressor and refrigerant gas to produce a reaction that treats the air accordingly and then distributes it throughout the home.

Not all air conditioners are reverse cycle. If you want an efficient air con that acts as an effective heating and cooling system, your options are a ducted or split system air conditioner. Most modern air conditioners are reverse cycle but always speak with a professional if unsure. If you live in a warmer climate and don’t require heating, you can explore an eco-friendly system that only cools, like an evaporative air conditioner.

There is no hard and fast rule regarding the running costs of a reverse cycle air conditioner, as the answer will always depend on your desired temperature and usage. However, if you refer to a recent household energy bill, you can work out the prices as an estimate.

Start by looking for your air con’s Energy Rating sticker to determine its kilowatt or kWh usage per hour. Then, a recent energy bill will reveal how much you pay per kilowatt. Multiply the KWh with the price and then the hours of usage for a reliable estimate.
