Emailed estimate. A Micro-Air EasyStart Flex soft starter offers several benefits when paired with a generator for home air conditioning, primarily by reducing the initial surge of electricity needed to start the AC unit, thus enabling it to run on a smaller generator than would otherwise be required. This can lead to cost savings on generator size and fuel consumption. Additionally, it can reduce the noise and wear on the AC compressor, and potentially extend its lifespan. Specific Benefits: Enables AC on Smaller Generators: The soft starter significantly reduces the inrush current (the ini
