Backup Generators “BUGS”

FUEL! Generators on the market typically rely upon diesel, gasoline, propane or natural gas. Gas = least expensive but….is the loudest and wears out the quickest Diesel generators have the possibility of being run off bio-diesel or vegetable oil

Residential to Industrial Size Popular residential home backup generator is Watts (4.5-5 kW) A 1500 kW generator would be large enough to temporarily provide a hospital with enough power Sizes range from 800 W W

Important Info. Before purchasing a backup generator find out about local codes. Often it is not allowed to install a generator in urban homes If generator is connected to household electrical system it is required to have a Transfer Switch

Brand Names Generac Power Systems: 7kW =$ kW = $2995 Briggs and Stratton 7kW= $2295 Kubota Diesel 2 cyl. 6.5 kW = $ gallon tank = 7 hour run time Avg. run time for gas generators = 5 hours
