Thread: Whole house generator follow-up (fuel use)
Post: RE: Whole house generator follow-up (fuel use)
I have a 10kw generator. 325 gallon tank but they only fill it to like 80% or somesuch. based on usage data I figure on about 100 hours of run time at max fullness. Probably less if it's cold out. |
