A week ago this past Monday we were out of power for about 10 hours. Not weather related. When we build our house 26 years ago, I installed a transfer panel in the hallway, and a remote starter for my Yamaha 6000. The Yamaha has been great. Only one filter change and zero maintenance in over 26 years. Fortunately we do not need it often, and it has never failed to start.
I also installed a propane stovetop. We are on a well, and have to pump septic uphill. We typically use our wood stove for heat. The Yamaha will not run the septic and water pump at the same time, so I usually turn the septic pump off. If it is needed, it sounds an alarm.
I store my truck and TC in front of my garage. It has my Honda 2000 with the extended fuel tank modification. If all else fails I can move into it. I keep the TC loaded, black and gray tanks empty, water tank full and stocked with food.
