A good line conditioner should be able to convert a modified sine inverter
to a good pure sine inverter.
After thinking about it I would try a unit like
https://www.zoro.com/tripp-lite-power-conditioner-small-tower-18kva-lc-1800/i/G2208823/#tech-specs
and see how it works before I invested in inverter shopping looking for
just the one that works.
