That's a great point. I will mention it to my client when I see them. We're on the coast yes. My house sits atop a dune ridge so no worries there. My client's house is right on the Intercoastal Waterway and it has flooded the streets there so maybe that's why they put their generator up on blocks.

Thanks, Tom!
