Thanks, Daniel! The generator is for the whole house but my primary goal is to keep the reef going during an outage and heating or cooling operational as well. There may be some limitations after we perform a load test on all the appliances though. For example, a five ton a/c unit uses about the same load as a laundry dryer ...so maybe I will not be doing laundry during an outage.
