Collection: Home Backup

Run your home air conditioner on backup power. ActiveStart soft starts reduce the startup current of a central AC or heat pump compressor, so a home standby or portable generator can start it without tripping or stalling. Choose the wired 40 amp ACS4W40 for a permanent install at the condenser, the plug-in 50 amp ACS50P, or the Home Backup Power Softstart Bundle (ACS50PS and ACS4W40). The Home Backup Power System kit completes the generator connection. Designed by Active Controls in Pompano Beach, Florida, assembled in the USA, with phone and after-hours tech support.
