It looks like you are asking abut the 5000 watt Hybrid Generator. My Eyedro energy monitor tells me my house air conditioner runs around 2600 watts. Add 1000 watts to that for starting current and it appears this generator would run my (and probably yours) house air conditioner. Consider other house loads though. My water heater draws over 3000 watts alone and would overload the generator if the air was running too. You would have to manage the loads to use this generator to power your home air conditioning. There is a larger version of this generator, the Champion Power Equipment 100520 8750-Watt DH Series Open Frame Inverter that runs at 7000 watts. Spend a couple hundred dollars more and get this one. I would still manage my loads carefully though.

So, does this generate 5,000 watts of running power or not?

It specifies in the manual that you will experience a 3.5% power reduction for every 1,000' of elevation above sea level. For example, if you are operating at an elevation of 5,000', your power will be: 5,000w x (1 - 0.035x5) = 4,125w = 34.375A @ 120v Champion offers high elevation jets if you contact them. They also provide instructions for re-jetting. The 2 high elevation jets they have available are: Part #: 16161-Z020910-0000 ; Min elevation = 3,000' Part #: 16161-Z140510-0000 ; Min elevation = 6,000' Each 3,000' increment you re-jet for will bring you 525w closer to the 5,000w.

Does shipping really take 1 to 2 months?

Not from Amazon, unless you're in South America. If they even ship there. Mine was here in 8 days.

On the 240 volt plug: Will this unit handle different amperage loads on 240 volt output; if safely wired to house curcuit breakers for a house loads?

Yes. - - - Up to 21Amps on each side of the 120-N-120 split. Load above 21A on one/either side for more than a few seconds and output will be shut down by an internal overload sensor.
