It depends on the starting surge of the air conditioner, and what the inverter is able to supply. With a good battery, you could likely get away with just one, but as it ages, it may not always start the compressor.Powerfab top of pole PV mount (2) | Listeroid 6/1 w/st5 gen head | XW6048 inverter/chgr | Iota 48V/15A charger | Morningstar 60A MPPT | 48V, 800A NiFe Battery (in series)| 15, Evergreen 205w "12V" PV array on pole | Midnight ePanel | Grundfos 10 SO5-9 with 3 wire Franklin Electric motor (1/2hp 240V 1ph ) on a timer for 3 hr noontime run - Runs off PV ||

I suggest you research Mini Split heat pumps, there are a few models that can be DIRECTLY
powered by solar panels. And probably much more effective and far less noisy than what you
may have. Otherwise you are looking at an expensive, inefficient, high maintenance battery/
inverter setup.
The same unit can supply limited heat when the sun shines. Bruce RoeComment
