I need to run 220v power to two air conditioners/heaters. Can I use one line like 110v or do I have to run a dedicated line to each unit?

clint: one line is OK as long as it is adequate for the current demand of the two units. -
AC units generally draw quite a lot of power, especially if they also have heaters.quote:Originally posted by clint1965

You need two seperate circuits.

Ya I have to agree with irregularjoe on that one.. Not only will they need 2 circuits because of the power they demand, but its good to have them separate anyways so that a problem in one unit will not cause the breaker to trip and shut down BOTH units!Comment
