This is rated at 1070 watts cooling. 1070 Watts cooling is 3650.9915473 BTU/Hr.
3650.9915473 BTU/Hr equals 0.30424929561 in Refrigeration tons....Pleazer Appliance...
you are missing the voltage supply here to get an definitive answer
for 240 volts drawing 4.8 amps the required wattage is 1152
for 120 volts the wattage is 576 watts
for 120 volts with a current of 900 watts , it equates to 7.5 amps
with 240 volts with a current of 1150 watts , it equates to 4.79 amps
so you can see the problem by not stating the supply voltage
get access to an cable clamp amp meter / watt meter from an electrician and read the current on starting the ac unit
if it exceeds 900 watts for 120 volts or 1150 for 240 volts , consider a bigger generator
Check filter, if you have a 5000BTU unit (small) and it is extremely hot, then it wont work great for a big room. BTU is the rate of what the AC will put out. 5000 BTU is good for a small single room. 10,000 will cool a bigger room and 18,000 btu is meant to cool a home.
5.8 amps. see page 9 (5300 btu is considered a 6000 BTU, 4800 is considered 5000 btu, sorta like a 2x4 ain't really a 2x4 LOL) You cannot run an ac on an inverter, not enough juice to get it started.
It depends on the (EER) Energy Efficiency Ratio,which is capacity divided by watts.
Example 35000 btus / 2500 watts = 14 EER
If you know the capacity,btus and EER you can calculate the watts, capacity / EER
Example 35000 btus / 14 EER = 2500 watts.
EER is determine by testing the air conditioner at Department of Energy Guidelines, which are
80° drybulb 67° wetbulb indoor and 95° and 82° drybulb outdoor.
