General Discussion / Running A/C compressor with Listeroid CS
« on: August 03, 2023, 10:04:02 PM »
Hi Everyone,

Being an engineer with a mind that never seems to go to sleep, I had a thought the other night whilst sitting.
That thought was, "has anyone here, or know of anyone who has, run an AC compressor from a Listeroid CS?"
While my setup using a 12/1 CS will mostly be for backup, and for running the house, just because I will be able
to, I wanted to see if anyone had in fact used a Listeroid for air conditioning while also making power.

Given that the average car has an air conditioning capacity of 2 tons (24K BTU), and some trucks have more,
this might be an instance where using commonly available parts might prove workable, and not all that expensive.
I can make biodiesel very inexpensively (currently do produce), so it may prove to be less expensive to air
condition the house versus the nearly 50 cents per KWh in our area (cost per KWh + transmission cost).

Being an engineer, and knowing people in the HVAC field, I don't think there is anything we can't solve, but
just wanted to see if anyone has done this, and how it worked for them if they did.

I hope this finds folks here on the forum doing well, and I look forward to chatting with folks.

Take care,

Eric G.
