Our generator has turned on reliably from well below zero to around 100F. Only maintenance I do is make sure the oil is topped off. Once a year the installer sends out a tech to service it.

The bill for running 24/7 for the generator for that month was roughly around $110 (excluding the normal natural gas usage amount.)
I checked and its a 20kw system. Price we paid for the system and the install has already been recouped by my estimates.

Give me your usage details, and I'll rough out a system for you. I sell systems like this, but mostly for off-shore and remote locations.
James, sent you a PM. I had a guy come out today and I want to get your advise on a few things. He pitched a hybrid system of solar and stand-by propane, no batteries.

Are the subsidies real?

Thanks.

Better for business than people. But people get a 30% refundable tax credit. Your local are might have others.
