Things to Consider: Generators
Hear recommendations and options you have when the power situation is less than stable. Should you choose a portable or a home standby generator system? There are a considerable amount of risks that you should be aware of. They occur with both the unit itself as well from fuel to carbon monoxide and heat. Then you have the connection. Are you running extension cords? Open windows? Moving appliances to get the cord. Does that open window create an issue in itself? Would you be better off if you ran it through your own home's wiring instead? Maybe even safer?
