Does that type of generator will automatically turn on if the main power is out Pacu mom? Any information? ThanksTo ensure that our big upgrade won't be jeopardized by a power outage, we went this route
Yes, it automatically turns on when the power goes out. Here's a video:Does that type of generator will automatically turn on if the main power is out Pacu mom? Any information? Thanks
We haven't had opportunity to use it yet, so can't comment. I purchased it based on the online research that I did. Generac kept coming up over and over....I could not find any bad reviews on it. The one thing to keep in mind is whether you are going to buy a package with an automatic transfer switch. I purchased such a package, and we ended up not using it.Pacu mom are you pleased with the quality of Generac? I will be adding a standby generator and have been looking at the different brands. Generac is the maker I think I have settled on purchasing any feedback would be great. Thanks Ken
Don't bother. I tried one and it only ran for a few minutes and overheated.I have seen UPS (uniterupted power system) for computers I'm not sure how many Amp hours they have or what sizes they are avilable in but it may be an option for running air pumps for a period of time once the power goes out.
