    the baseboard heat is optional, but would be nice. water heater would be very nice. the 2.5 doy outage last year with 5' of snow was rough. blowing and shoveling that much snow was major work and a hot shower would have gone real far.

    Totally expecting to need new both. The possible new location will be very close to the gas supply and breaker box. Not sure yet if the switch needs to be in the garage safe from elements. the old one has no front cover. the new ones do.

    I left messages and emails about service and a quote on a new one to the the other Generac service and supplier up here and got nothing. Nothing make me more upset than basically telling a company you may spend a ton of money with them and get no response. We are leaning towards the new...

    Looks and sounds great! Nothing wrong with going easy. Not every cook needs to be complicated.

    Altitude is really a thing for all combustion engines. The gen we have has not been problem free since we moved in. Also clearly not cared for. Like I said, upgrading has been on the radar for a while. This may just be the push we needed. We have found so much sketchy work done on this...

    Replacing it has been on our long list since we bought the house. it just died prematurely (before planned). It only powers minimally, a full house would be a huge upgrade. The one we have is so old I dont think many people have seen it or know it well. I talked with Generac tech support and...

    First time making beef back ribs

    Same. Butchers have them but they charge too much. Costco seems to have more often than not. Try Costco. If they are not stocked you can ask the meat cutters if they can get them. Ive talked to them when the brisket selection was not to my liking and they pulled a couple fresh boxes out for...

    You are at sea level. I’m at 8200 ft. There is a big loss of power at elevation. Generac says 1/3 less.

    Valid points. We are up in the mtns. only a couple options. The company we have been using is rated extremely well, not saying thats the end all be all. I do feel they are stuck on the supply as the issue and I dont agree with that. 100% agree with your comment on the gas supply. nearly...

    I dont think its a fuel issue. as in the gas supply from the meter as the gas company was out and verified all was well. Even replaced the home regulator and set it where they want it. he check the flow and all that jazz too. I talked with him a while and feel confident that is not the...

    I hear ya, my concern is its the tip of the iceberg and we are going keep having issues and more service. @ 135/hour plus parts it runs up a tab pretty fast.

    I havent. The oil comes out very dark when I change it. If there are no outages it will about 12 hours a year doing self tests. Last year it rand for 2.5 days straight plus weekly for about 8 hours, then randomly here and here for an hour or two. Before I bought the house 3 years ago is a...

    15 year old Generac not running...replace?

    I am leaning that way. its old and was not well cared for. if its no longer reliable then its useless. Its a lot of money to replace, but we can add many circuits to a new one. now it can only power 2 refers, the garage and a couple outlets in the house. its enough, but far generous. its...

    could not agree more. I have a bone to pick with them on a couple levels.
