For us, a propane whole house generator made more sense. Storing enough diesel for a long outage is not practical. Our tractor goes through about 75-100 gal per year. Makes it difficult to keep 250 gallons of “good” fuel on hand. 400 gallons of propane will last years untreated.
Ours is 13kW and it does all we need. Consumption is about 25-30 gallons per day. Less than $75/day at current propane price. We can go two weeks without a fill and without cycling the generator. If we had a long outage, and cycled it, we could go over six weeks.
