If
the electrical interruption occurs in winter,
you will be able to keep the blower on your gas
furnace operating and thus avoid frozen water
lines. Even a small unit can help by running an
appliance or two along with a few lights. Often,
the investment in a standby generator set is recouped
at the first significant outage.
Propane generators cost 40 to 50 percent less
per hour to run than gasoline powered models.
Propane gas powered generators do not require
any fuel to be stored at your home for their operation.
Propane is supplied to the equipment from the
house line that delivers gas to your furnace,
water heater and other gas appliances. Models
are available in a variety of sizes from 5 KW
(KiloWatt) to 60 KW to match your electrical load.
Many models of Propane Generators offer an option
which senses when a failure occurs in your electricity
from your electric supplier. The standby unit
starts itself and begins giving you electricity
in 30 to 60 seconds. It then monitors the electricity
from the street and, when it senses that the power
is restored, shuts itself off.
All our generators come will a full warranty
and in most cases, are dropped-shipped directly
from the factory to your business or home. We
also would like for you to view a compiled list
of propane companies and propane tank suppliers
we are putting together so you can get the fuel
you need in order to keep your generator working.
