A. The ThermAssure requires extra power to start up and considerably less power once it gets going. The starting power is roughly three (3) times the amount of power needed to run the unit. As the ThermAssure consumes about 380 Watts for the air conditioner, we recommend at least a 1000 Watt generator for initial power-up. The heater requires about 600 Watts.
