You also need to ensure that your natural gas meter has the capacity to handle the generator if you want to use natural gas. I'm looking into this because as a Ford employee I can get a 30% discount off the price of the Generac 15K generator (actually gets 12K using natural gas). My electrician says it's no problem and he will hook it up for me (I fix his computers) but my heating/cooling guy said my meter may not be able to handle the additional load on it. Winters wouldn't be too bad because you're primarily running the furnace and lights, but the summer with A/C, refrigerator, lights, etc... may be a problem. Best bet is to get an electrician and HVAC guy to look at it first.
