Tips for new Generator users

Unfortunately the U.S. has seen many natural disasters the past couple of years that has forced people to rely on generators for extended amounts of time. If you are using a generator know you will have to in the near future please keep these tips in mind:
  1. ALWAYS have your generator in a well ventilated area, never in a room in your house, apt, condo etc. The carbon monoxide fumes that are released can be life threatening.
  2. Only refuel the generator when it is off and cooled down. If your refuel while it is running and you spill gas on it, you run the risk of the gas igniting.
  3. Never hook-up your generator to your house or structure without having the proper transfer switch!
  4. Understand how many watts the generator can handle so you can hookup the proper appliances.
    • An industrial 6500 watt generator can run a refrigerator and two smaller items like a hairdryer and lights.
  5. Plug your appliance directly into the generator OR get a heavy-duty extension cord that has a 3-pronged connector.
  6. Most importantly pay attention to the directions on the generator. They are there for your safety.
