Something to consider. We opted for the 240V dryer and assumed that the Cummins/Onan 6500 LP Gen would run the dryer. It was brought to my attention by a member (Chris Bryant?) that the only way the gen would work if it were the same gen but in the commercial version. DRV would NOT let Cummins/Onan install the Commercial version even tho C/O said it would work fine and they would do it DRV said they had not gone thru all the testing to approve it.
I was not happy! So C/O did the gen prep and RollingRetreats did the gen install.
The only thing that will not run is the dishwasher, it has something to do with needing "clean power".
yeh, there are 120v only versions (like mine, commercial, 7kw gas converted to LP), and there are 120/240 versions. I'm surprised at the DW issue tho.. C/O has the best gens for mobile applications (ambulance, rv, ...)
I am sure DRV will have it as an option but they need to go thru the "process" !
When you offer a 240V dryer and you offer a Gen it should run the dryer in my book!
My only regret is now I wish I would have gone with a Diesel! If I could find someone that would give me a fair price for my gen I would probably change to the diesel.
