Can the Yeti backup my AC and heating?
Although it may be possible heating and air conditioning requires a large amount of energy. The Yeti 1500X and larger have a maximum output of 2000W if your AC or Heating devices require 2000W or lower it is possible to run these devices although due to the large energy requirements of the devices it may drain your Yeti Power Station relatively fast. We recommend reviewing the energy requirements of your devices to confirm compatibility with the 2000W inverter.

My Natural Gas furnace can be ran using my GZ 1500x. I tried using my 500x, but it was too small. My particular furnace, a Lenox, requires the neutral ground. If you are on FB, I detailed my modification here. Note: there's the initial power hit, but then the wattage output drops while the furnace is running. https://www.facebook.com/groups/2096497103956451/posts/3110443882561763/
None of my Yeti's can start my A/C, but I'm going to investigate the use of RV soft starters for A/C. I don't remember off the top of my head if I have a 2 ton or 4 ton A/C. https://www.automationdirect.com/adc/overview/catalog/drives_-a-_soft_starters/ac_motor_soft_starters?
