[QUOTE="Firpo, post: 3861977, member: 45550"] Just for reference, wife and I moved into our house 6/1/20. We’ve gone through ice storms, polar blasts and power outages, to date my 22KW Generac has ran 13 hours. Additionally my cook top is gas and I heat (supplement) my 5bed 3,600sqft house with the two gas fireplaces. Let’s see, what else? I’ve also filled 3-4 5 gallon bottles and with all this have used a total of 50 gallons (approx) of propane. Crunching the numbers that averages out to a monthly cost of $22.92. We have a heat pump, actually three and at first I was using them extensively to heat the house and man what an electric bill. 😳 started running the fireplaces and the heaters hardly ever kicked on this past winter. One time we were running on the generator and it kept tripping on “over current”….Say What?? I got curious and put a clamp meter on my service entrance and had the Mrs turn on the heater w/heater strips. Just one of those darn things drew 82 amps. Ridiculous!! [/QUOTE]
