Features and Options There are several different fuel options, but they are mostly based on what’s available in your area or what size generator you want to purchase.Diesel is the most reliable and cheapest fuel option but not the most environmentally cleanest, although deliveries of diesel fuel are needed or a tank to hold it. Standby generators are mostly run on natural gas or propane, which means they can simply be connected to utility lines and draw fuel when it needs to. Portable generators mostly run on gasoline, although gasoline can’t be stored for very long, so you might want to consider propane. Never run a portable generator indoors. Dangerous gas emissions could cause death. There are portable and standby generators that are available in duel- or tri-fuel options. Switching from natural gas to gasoline to propane, they are generally more expensive to buy and maintain. Safety features are an important aspect for every generator. You want a standby that will shut down if they lose oil pressure or overheat or too much voltage coming in. Portable generators should contain large fuel tanks for longer running time. Standby generators should be enclosed in solid steel or aluminium enclosures, and be compliant with all emissions regulations. |
