The two main benefits of installing a Kickstart hard start device are:
Life extension of your compressor
By reducing the duration of "inrush" current, Kickstart hard start devices minimize the amount of damaging heat that compressor windings are otherwise subjected to during start-up. Over time, this reduced stress on insulation, wiring, and other critical components of the compressor has the effect of increasing its reliability and extending its useful life.
Reduced "light flicker" during compressor start-up
Air conditioning and heat pump compressors (especially those with higher SEER ratings), often produce the undesirable side effect of "light flicker" when they start-up. Because the Kickstart hard start device brings the compressor to rated speed up to ten times faster than normal, energy consumption is minimized and noticeable "light flicker" is usually completely eliminated.
Kickstart is the only hard start device that is patented, U.L. Recognized in the U.S. and Canada, and approved by major compressor and equipment manufacturers for permanent installation. Kickstart is also the only pre-assembled, 2-wire, easy-to-install hard start device that utilizes the superior sensing capability of a potential relay in combination with a start capacitor. Kickstart devices work on all single-phase PSC and CSIR air conditioning, heat pump, and refrigeration compressors (1-5 horsepower; 208V to 265V).
