She had to get the propane generator out of the basement....haul it outside the patio door....hook up a 30 lb propane tank to it...prime it..start it...plug the cord into the back feed for powering just a few items and listen to the noise that thing made. As soon as I got home called my electrician buddy told him to get me Generac 22 kw to power the hole house...called my propane supplier they put a 250 gallon tank off the drive and ran a line to it and it I never worry about her being there with no power. Thing is quiet runs everything. Happy wife is well worth it !!
About how many days will that 250 gallon tank last running 24/7
