Apu decision time

How is the exhaust tube from the rear of the unit vented? Pic is worth a thousand words here (hint hint!).

the problem you are going to run with some of these generators and the A/C window units you want to run is that they have electronics in them that require a pure sine wave form out of the generator. Not many generators will do that. It's actually clipped.

In otherwords, it's dirty power and the electronic controls don't like it and are shutting it down as a result.


And you'll also get a few truckers that are going to tell you I am blowing smoke up yer tailpipe too.

Take it for what it is but if you want more, do a google or bing search on generator wave forms.

Try plugging it into a house outlet to see if the issue is with the ac or the generator. What size, manufacturer and model generator are you using? You could be exceeding the duty rating of the generator.

 

Hp 2000 a long list of bad reviews to me and a whole lot of people I have talked to.They are not reliable,always in shop ,mine broke down 1 hour after install.The first week the exhaust system fell off always overheating,the list goes on and try to get warranty work done lol.Just buyer beware it really sucks making payments on something that does not do the job it was advertised to do.The only good thing is I have a good looking 9,000.00 box on side of my truck.
