[QUOTE="CobraBob, post: 16692713, member: 6727"] You are definitely going to want to weigh the cost/benefit if you decide to go with a large generator. Bear in mind, too, that natural gas and propane prices are expected to go through the roof this winter. In New England, propane gas on 10/4/21 was averaging $3.37. On 11/8/21 it was up to $3.54. A friend of mine had a whole house system installed at around $15K a few years ago. During that time, he probably used it for 24hr.+ outages maybe twice. He uses propane. I considered installing one, but the cost/benefit ratio just didn't make sense. Still doesn't. And if propane becomes in short supply and you run out, that whole house system suddenly is useless. Or the cost for propane could be prohibitive. We're probably going to see propane prices (and natural gas prices) well above $4.00 a gallon this winter, once demand increases. A year ago, the national average was $2.72 at this time for propane. [/QUOTE]
