A serious diyer ... ( 1 year ago by theavailablenamessuk)

A serious diyer couldn't do the job? Want to put that to the test? I know I could install it myself. What do you say to that? Are you
saying this from a money point of view or safety point of view?

I'm saying it from ... ( 1 year ago by AsktheBuilder)

I'm saying it from a technical point of view. We'll be waiting to see your video. Make sure you do
a before, during and after one so we can see you doing all the steps. We all can't wait...!

Oh well I thought we could get together and you could hold the camera.

Sorry, you're on your own. You'll have to get
a videographer like I did. Be sure to let us know when the video is complete. I'll add it here as a video response.

I plan on a whole different setup. I would rather have solar panels and a battery bank. Just for the fact I don't like feeding greedy utilitiies Co's that charge
4 times for the same thing ( Natural Gas ). I could do a video like that for you in the future.

Here in the USA we have a saying: Actions speak louder than words. You should consider stop making comments here. Take that energy and focus it on your video. At this point, you're all talk and no
action.

Thank you for the ... ( 1 year ago by sgeorgstvn)

Thank you for the informative video! I
hope to invest in one someday, I just have to figure out how big I need it, and what I want to power on in an emergency situation.

Yes I did. I chose the Kohler because I felt it was a better machine. The installers also
said they have had chronic problems with the brand you mentioned.

Nice system .
but i would be afraid if i was you that my investment's start rusting outside .
i would rather install it in my basement with
an exterior exhaust .

The paint finish on ... ( 1 year ago by AsktheBuilder)

The paint finish on the unit will probably last 30 years or more. You could also build a simple roofed structure with generous overhangs to keep all but a driving rain off of it. Installing a machine like this in a house is a recipe for disaster. Wait until you develop a tiny leak in the exhaust. Oh wait, you'll never know, you'll be dead
of CO poisoning.

sounds like too much $ and labor for me. may if i lived further up
north. i would like something lil more practical for those of us who dont make 6 digits a year.

Yes, they can ... ( 1 year ago by AsktheBuilder)

Yes, they can absolutely be expensive to install. You're paying for three things: tremendous extra power you can't get from a tiny gasoline generator, convenience because it automagically comes on and is HARD wired into your system, and above all
SAFETY. Portable generators, with the spaghetti extension cords are not safe - not to mention the carbon monoxide hazard.

i only
make bout 34000/year. is there a practical way for me to have one? it dont have to be fancy. something i could turn on manually.

I'm a master electrician in Ontario, I've install several
of these types of units, I do find them fairly costly, both for the product and the BIG install bill!

That is just enough ... ( 1 year ago by jpizfulful)

That is just enough to even maybe buy a whole house generator. A 25,000 watt unit with a transfer
system and install costs about 5 grand. Look at your panel and see. That looks pretty cheap for 25,000 watts.

Congratulations on ... ( 1 year ago by MrStrictlyStock)

Congratulations on getting a pro to install it.
Too many scofflaws/cheapskates risk the lives of power company lineman by avoiding the transfer switchgear.

While you probably ... ( 6 months ago by BigYellow9999)

While you probably won't find 60K watt portable generators, most homes don't need nearly that much power. I have a 6800 Watt Ridgid generator that runs basically everything except for my 40 amp oven (can use my microwave, which has an oven feature), my 50 amp dryer (not worried about drying clothes during a power loss) and my central AC (I can get by with fans).
I can hook it up to my house with a transfer switch, so no need to use extension cords. It's cheaper and portable.

What you forgot to ... ( 6 months ago by AsktheBuilder)

What you forgot to mention is that you can't operate *all* the things you want at the same time. Do the math: Operating the microwave, a hairdryer, your well pump, a refrigerator and your dishwasher at the same time and you're portable
generator is toast. And all this while you're using flashlights. When you reply to my comment, bring with you the wattage of everything in your house that *could* be on at the same time as if there was no outage. That's the real test.

I have a house in ... ( 2 months ago by njaslayer)

I have a house in Lebanon up the mountains. Seven floors. It has a swimming pool, elevator, lighting, pumps, etc. The problem is that there is not enough power going to the moutains so we have powercuts happening 2-3 hours per day.The house has three standby generators. They are all differant sizes depending on how much electricity we need. The powercut we experience is less than 10 seconds compared
to our neighbours which can last up to 3 hours for them. Thank you standby generators!
