Hello Adam, thanks for reaching out. It is possible to run a 13.5K BTU Advent AC unit off a generator. For the AC package I recommend the following:
- Advent Air RV Air Conditioner System - Single Zone - 13,500 Btu - White - R32 # ADV95SR
This comes with the rooftop unit, distribution box. start capacitor and thermostat. You would need a 3,000 watt generator minimum to start and run the Advent AC unit. Something like the Firman # FIR54FR or Champion # CH79FR.
