It depends on multiple factors, but the general answer would be somewhere around 1800 watts to 2500 watts when cooling and 300 watts or so when idling.

Find the nametag on the unit and add up the amperage ratings for the compressor and both fans, multiply that answer times the voltage you are using and that is the watts. divide the figure by 1000 and there is your answer in kW.

For example:

Indoor fan = 5 fla

Condenser fan = 6fla

Compressor =12 fla

Total fla = 23 amps x 120 volts = 2760 watts or 2.76kW
