[QUOTE="SlugSlinger, post: 3797203, member: 7248"] I have a 18kw Natural Gas Koehler. I bought the generator, from an individual, that was new in the box. I think I paid $4,500 for it. When we built our house and had the wiring ran from where the generator would sit and the main cut off, so there was little expense there. I set the generator on a concrete pad I poured myself. An electrician installed everything including a separate cutoff, post meter that I asked for. Also ran a large gas connection, 2” schedule 40, about 20’ off the meter to the generator. I think I have $6-7k in everything, but that’s in 2012 dollars and I did some of the work myself. Both the electrician and plumber were small companies I’ve used before. We had a lighting strike years ago. It fried the ATS and stuff in the genset. After much haggling, it was repaired under warranty. I’m hesitant recommending Koehler. [/QUOTE]
