A heat pump pulls the air back through and recylces it to make heat. A heat strip is just air being pushed across the heat strip to make the air warm.

Can you run a 3 ton heat pump with a 7000 watt generator?
No. The heat pump (your outdoor unit) and indoor blower motor will run ok at these power levels, but here is the bad news - if the heat pump can't meet the temperature demand (or it gets below ~ 20F outside), the furnace will attempt to turn on several electric strip heaters (as emergency backup). These strip heaters are rated from ~ 5000W to 20000W, depending on the size of your home. Your generator can't handle that load.
