You don’t want a generator that’s too small to power everything your home needs, but you also don’t want one that’s way too big and unnecessarily expensive.\u00a0 Ideally, your generator puts out slightly\u00a0<\/em>more kWs than you need, giving you a little wiggle room during an outage.\u00a0 It’s just like picking the right shoe size.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

So what size of generator\u00a0do\u00a0<\/em>you need?\u00a0 Generac has an excellent quiz<\/a> that will give you a solid answer immediately.\u00a0 You just answer a few questions about your specific situation, and it tells you what number of kilowatts is right for you.\u00a0 The quiz is quick and simple.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Of course, if you contact us because you want a generator installed<\/a> or even are considering a trade-in<\/a>, we’ll tell you how much output you need.\u00a0 Our recommendations will probably line up with what the Generac quiz tells you, but may vary up or down a few kilowatts, simply because we’ll see your setup in-person and will be able to factor in all of the particulars of your situation.<\/p>
