Documented space comparison
Compare measured available space with the complete space envelope stated in the exact model instructions. Include required clearances in the required values yourself.
Available minus required in each dimension. This does not assess door swing, delivery access, ventilation, services, level floors or installation compliance.Annual electricity-cost scenario
Use a documented annual kWh figure and your own electricity usage tariff. Keep the label test basis with the result.
Annual kWh multiplied by AUD/kWh. Supply charges, other appliances and changes in use are excluded. Label-based consumption is not a measured household bill.Cycle water-use scenario
Combine a documented litres-per-cycle figure with your chosen frequency and water usage tariff. The tested cycle may differ from actual use.
Litres/cycle × cycles/week × weeks ÷ 1,000 = kL; kL × AUD/kL = usage-cost component. Fixed charges, wastewater charges and other water use are excluded.
