AMAZING WHOLE HOUSE GENERATORS AT AMAZING KEYS

If you live in an area that has occasional power outages, then you are a good candidate for a whole house generator.  A whole house generator will provide reliable power to your home during a power outage.  You will feel safe and secure knowing that if your powerlines are down for a week or two that you will have uninterruputed power.   Hurricanes, tornados and winter ice storms are the most common causes of extended power outages.  The same storms that take the power out also make it difficult for the power company to quickly restore power.

Most folks are familiar with a battery back up system on their computer.  A whole house generator is like a battery back up for your house! (except it's not a battery)

If your power fails, then a good whole house generator will automatically start up within about 30 seconds and provide power to your home.  You really do not need to do anything if you have the proper whole house generator installed at your home.

The whole house generator is about the size of an outdoor central air conditioning unit.  In fact it looks like an outdoor central air conditioning unit to many folks.  It is powered by natural gas or propane. 

If you are buying one of these whole house generators you will need one that is at least 10,000 watts to carry the loads for most 2000 square foot homes.  You will have to manage your power during the time the whole house generator is on.  The power is not unlimited.  That's means you can't turn everything on at once!  

Whole house generators cost several thousand dollars.  I have sold hundreds of whole house generators over the internet over the past several years.  I usually make 2 large purchases a year and try to find the best deal possible on whole house generators.   I pass these savings along to my buyers.  I always do sell out because my prices are about 1/2 of what you would expect to pay for a similar item.   Our generators are in stock and you can save on shipping if you are near our distribution center in Mississippi.
