ENERGY STAR lists 5,000 Btu/h, CEER 14.4, 115 V, variable-speed compressor, and 260.4 kWh/year. Rated input is 5,000 ÷ 14.4 = 347.2 W. That matches the listed annual energy at the DOE room-AC assumption of 750 hours (347.2 × 750 ÷ 1,000 = 260.4). The 347.2 W figure is the draw while cooling at the rated condition, not a whole-year average. Startup watts are not published.

Questions

What number does Willrun compare to the inverter?

Running watts of 347 W must fit under continuous output, or under a resistive boost when this load is a simple heater. Startup watts were not published.

How is runtime calculated?

Usable watt-hours (capacity × 0.85) divided by 347 W. No duty cycle is applied beyond the stored average.

Where did this come from?

ENERGY STAR lists 5,000 Btu/h, CEER 14.4, 115 V, variable-speed compressor, and 260.4 kWh/year. Rated input is 5,000 ÷ 14.4 = 347.2 W.
