will the 14,000 watt air cooled gen, power a 1500sq/ft home gas heater, elect, stofe fridge appliances etc, pool pump

you would have to add up the total wattage used by all the electrical equipment that you would like to have it power when in use. There are charts, even Kohlers web site has the power consumed by the various appliances listed. add them up per your needs and base it on that. I will say that I run the entire household on it, including a pool pump, as a backup power source through an automatic transfer switch.

I run my whole 1800 sq/ft home, gas heater, Electric stove,fridge appliances and a 4 ton a/c - I don't have a pool pump but everything else is fine

I find one hundred watts equals one thousand BTU for Air conditioners the rating Is different for Electric heaters. My Generator runs My 10000 BTU Air conditioner just fine but 15000 BTU would be pushing It, a Air conditioner during start up can use 2 to 5 times more watts than when running If the start up Is more than 3 times Its Not going to have enough watts to start the Air conditioner by technical numbers that Is so I do Not know It might work. Its best to have a generator that puts out at least twice the amount of watts that You are going to be using so that the generator runs cool.

OK, you should be able to run 1400 watts on each plug in. I have tested mine with a milk house heater (1400 w) on one plug in and various power tools, saws, drills and so forth working off the other plug in with just a noticeable increase in the engine's performance. You should make yourself aware of the wattage draw for the refrigerator, lights, window AC unit and so forth so that you can stay under the 1400 w per plug. Running maximum draw will cut your gas consumption in half so be prepared to have plenty of gas stored in a safe place so you can be prepared for the next power outage.

Yes u should have no problems, its a lot less than a 900w heater or many other appliances u plug in

depends on how many watts you are using at once. refrigerator and freezer together would use around 1500 watts, pump motor would depend on how big it is.

This is Generac's basic automatic standby system and also you it's output depends on what fuel type you'll be using (7kw - LP, 6kw - NG). It should be sufficient enough to run your furnace (provided it's oil or gas fired), your fridge, your well pump, a microwave, and some lighting/receptacle circuits. This is all we would typically load this unit. No split system A/C, electric range, dryer, wall ovens, electric heat or similar large demanding loads should be put on this unit. Most whole home applications require 14kw and up (depending on load calculations and Generac's recommendations).

That depends on the amp draw of the unit and at what voltage 110 or 220, if it is more that 14.5 amps then I would say no. Why I say 14.5 amps is because even though the unit is capable of outputting 29+ amps. (3250 watts divided by 110 volts = 29.5 amps total, 14.5 each side at 110 volts), that is for each side or leg of the unit, each hot lead to common. That is why it is important if you have it connected to a breaker box to even off the load of each side. A 5,000 BTU home AC draws approx 5 amps, so if your AC unit is pretty new and efficient then there should be no problem. Hope this helps.

yes it will. but remember that the pump will have to be no more than a 10 watt. It depends on how you set up your system.

Not sure on that buddy, really depends on what the pump motor specs are. And for refrigerator it will run a mini fridge for sure for awhile only was able to test that out for a couple hours though. The problem you will really have is the solar panel charging it is very slow and requires great weather conditions to get max charge. I wasn't patient enough to wait so I just plugged the 1250 into my car and got a charge from that.

The unit is rated at 12 AMPS, 1440 WATTS. A 15 AMP circuit is sufficient as long as there are not other appliances on the circuit.Hope that helps!

No. You should use 14/2 for 1500 watts. You could use it with 750 watt heater but a direct connection to the heater is needed-should not be used as an extension for the heater.

1500 watts = 5118 Btu/hr; 825 watts = 2815 Btu/hr. Compare this with my Lennox gas furnace rated @ 70,000 Btu/hr

There should be no issue handling this a/c unit. Please remember that the 14KW Generac has a 60AMP total output rating so using 40AMP for your a/c is going to leave you not much room for things like refrigerators and sump pumps. If you are thinking about using this unit with a/c my recommendation is to go with the 20KW which would give you 90AMP of total output. Any further questions please feel free to contact me at 800.654.7440 ext 109. Thanks

The documentation I have says it will work with a 14KW generator but it doesn't list Model Numbers. It list Engine cc and KWs as follow:12kW(760cc)13kW(992cc)14kW(992cc)16kW(992cc)17kW(992cc)18kW(992cc)You can contact Generac: customer care center is here for you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.1-888-436-3722 Speak with a customer representative.

If the 15 amp device is something big to start, It will not. I cant use my 15 amp compressor (Ridgid) using this 3500 W Champion Generator.

I'm not sure about household components, I would think 2-3. I use mine to run tools for construction. You need to look at watts the generator puts out vs. amps of products you want to run. Search for a chart to see on that. I would go larger than smaller if looking to run a house. I would think a 5000 watt or larger to run refrigerator & AC
