Generator Fuel Types

When it comes to generators, you’ve got a few options for keeping the lights on. For full home generators, large inverter generators that can provide ample power for multiple rooms are often ideal as a backup system. Inverter generators are usually fairly quiet as well. Other options like an electric generator, solar generator or propane generator can work as well. These cost-efficient generators are excellent for smaller spaces or if you don’t need to keep lights and appliances on in multiple rooms for any significant length of time.  Gas generators, natural gas generator designs and dual fuel generator options are other excellent options for powering your home during an outage.
