Pracitcal Experience With Stand-By Generator
We are going to be remodeling our old kitchen and have decided to put in a gas stove, which will be run off of propane (there are no NG hook-ups where we are).
Given that, this is a good time to spec and install a stand-by generator that will also be propane fueled. We lose power, often for extended periods two to three times a year. I have gas powered gens that I use now but with the kids gone my wife and I travel more and the security of not having to race home to save the basement (two sump pumps) and our food makes sense to us.
Does any one here have any practical experience with LP generators? Above or in ground tanks, sizing the tank for extended outages, where did you locate the generator, etc?
I did a search and found a few old threads, nothing to detailed. I have been researching the various brands and sizes I'll need to power the house, including a/c but I am really looking for practical stuff and experiences:
Would you do it again?
Make any mistakes, something I can learn from?
Thanks in advance.
