Furnace fan hours on the AC200L

CaseWattsOn the AC200L
1/3 hp furnace fan (EWEB figure) (EWEB)700 W2.4 h
1/3 hp furnace fan (Honda figure) (Honda)1,000 W1.7 h
1/2 hp furnace fan (Honda)1,200 W1.4 h

Wh × 0.85 ÷ (watts + the station’s own draw, where the maker lists it).

Hours are nonstop; the fan cycles with the thermostat, so real hours are longer.

Can the AC200L start it?

Honda lists 1,800 W to start a 1/3 hp furnace fan and 2,500 W for 1/2 hp (Honda); EWEB’s chart gives about 2,100 W for 1/3 hp (EWEB). The AC200L has a 4,800 W surge. 1/3 hp furnace fan (EWEB figure): covers it; 1/3 hp furnace fan (Honda figure): covers it; 1/2 hp furnace fan: covers it.

How much an hour takes

An hour of a 1/3 hp furnace fan (Honda figure) running nonstop uses about 1,000 Wh, about 57% of the AC200L’s usable 1,741 Wh. At its 1,200 W solar input and our 75% assumption, strong sun puts about 900 Wh an hour back into the battery.

A furnace wired into the panel needs a transfer switch installed by a professional; never connect a backup to house wiring yourself.
