Air Conditioner

Can anyone advise the wattage (or current) draw for the air conditioner installed in the TMs.  We are still awiting delivery of our unit, but I'm considering a generator purchase and would like to be able to run the AC.  Just wanting to buy the minimum wattage (for purposes of noise reduction) and wanted to get a ball-park idea of what the power needs would be to run the A/C.

Thanks in advance

Dan,

You'll need at least a 3,000 watt unit.  We have two Honda EU2000i generators, they're quiet.  One alone didn't make the grade when the A/C kicked in.   The startup load was just too great.  I bought a special parallel cable to hook the two generators together, but the weather hasn't been warm enough to give this a try.

The 30amp service in our 2720 TM is enough to run the A/C, so if you get enough wattage (i.e. 3,600 watts) that'll support a current load.   The A/C doesn't pull that much.   We have the window A/C unit.  I can't speak for the overhead units in the larger trailers.

Hope this helps!
