Before hurricane season? That starts Monday. It will take months to get one installed
That said, it’s a great feeling having a whole house generator waiting outside

No because it’s right by the main panel and tied into that ground. I think it was just a freak thing but it sucked. Had to replace the control panel and brush assembly. Slip ring needed to be cleaned up too. It was a real pita finding parts during a hurricane recovery. I got lucky and one of the solar companies I used to finance for is a Generac dealer and hooked me up with parts.

Thinking about getting one before Hurricane season
My parents are in a good financial position so it was an easy decision to get one. My dad is difficult about everything so he had to put it exactly where he wanted it and it's in a not great place. Think the company who installed checks it every so often as per a plan and it runs for 5 minutes every Wednesday.
They like the insurance and my brother lives close so if they lose power he can go over there with his wife and kids.
I have no idea the expense but I'm sure you can finance 0% interest from a ton of these companies

Does it actually makes sense for the amount of times it’s really used? No
But for those times it’s really needed and used, it’s pretty damn priceless.

Stay away from KOHLER and A-Lectric Co. and Contracting out of Shreveport. Horrible.
