Does the powerhouse need to be phased with the KW & the 1033?

Yes.

PM-1 "U" to 1033 "A". This is not a typo... "A" is common on the 1033. "C" will power your switches at 16 volts. If the 1033 is powering switches & accessories only, no trains or track, it really doesn't make a lot of difference, but the whistle & direction controls are all on the "U" post, and you don't want that stuff common with the whole layout.

Have you tried to just add the base leaving the kw in place with no powerhouse?just add the base to the mix with 1 wire

I have powered the PM-1 very satisfactorily with the D-U posts, no PH-1 needed.
