Hello all,
Have been without power for 10 days after Irma hit us; just got it back on last night. Have a portable generator, which is OK for a couple of days but not a very good way to live indefinitely, especially since I can only run a few things on it. So, I'm looking into the possibility of a whole-house generator. We have no gas utilities here, so I guess they'd have to bury a propane tank in my yard. My questions here are, is there something to definitely look for, and as well, things I should avoid? One brand better or better value than others? Thanks in advance.
