How do I choose the correct size generator for my house?

October 10, 2019 /Posted byJared / 23452

How do I choose the correct size generator for my house? Well, it depends. Where do you live?  For what purpose are you purchasing a generator?  I always ask my customers the following question. What are your electrical power goals?  Do you live in a hot and humid climate?  Will you risk a mold infestation if your central air conditioner isn’t able to be powered up?  In that case you will need a generator which can power up that central air conditioner of yours. Maybe you live in a temperate area and have no need for air conditioning.  Do you have pumps to run?  How about a microwave? If your constant power needs are between 7000 watts and 12000 watts you will be best suited for a 50 amp generator.  If your constant power needs are less than 7000 watts you will be best suited for a 30 amp generator.

For those in the 50 amp generator category: The Motorhead or the GenRover will be the models you should take a closer look at.

For those in the 30 amp generator category: The SG7000AA is the model you should be examining.
