[QUOTE="KilkennyArms, post: 1953554, member: 25164"] I do think it was 07 as well. We were out 53 hours. I had bought a Generac 7.5 KW stand by generator hooked up through my propane tank. We did fine on all accounts but one. I didn't know you could use 1 of the 8 circuits to run the blower for the central air and heat. I knew it wouldn't power A/C but it did power the blower. I could have had central heat at the same time. I have it wired that way now. It is comforting to be in a situation where the power goes out and about 25 seconds later the generator kicks on and some power is available. I bought it because in clear weather in 05 during the TX vs. OU game the power went out. LIttle did I know a couple years later it would help us through an ice storm. The generator at that time cost me $1899.00 I had it delivered poured my own pad and did the gas pipe my self. The only other cost was $500.00 for an electrician to hook it in the to circuit pannel. Best $2,500 I ever spent. [/QUOTE]
