I suggest you strongly consider an LPG (propane) generator as it and its tank are not tied to a pipeline system. I see many folks putting in gensets for backup power that are tied to natural gas lines and are difficult to relocate. I have installed a backup genset at my house that runs off propane because I have concerns about an interrupted natural gas supply. I have seen natural gas fail in cold weather due to high demand.

Hoss,

I already bought two inverters. I will be putting in a LPG standby generator for the house when I build it. I'm sure it will be upwards of 20kw by the time I calculate all my loads. I want to be able to run everything.
