Thunderstorms are rather unpredictable. But there is one thing to be certain about with, the chance of a power outage is quite high. Because of that, more people are considering buying a storm generator than ever before.

However, a storm generator is not something to buy on a whim. If you’re on the fence about buying a generator to keep work and household online during the toughest weather that nature throws at you, below are helpful things to consider.

  1. Determine what you need it for

Storm generators are example of a product you can spend as much as you would like to on. If you are considering a generator, you must determine what your household would actually need to power in an emergency to give you an idea of the type to pursue. There are expensive permanent models that can power your whole home and affordable portable models that may power one appliance or a few outlets.

  1. Make sure you have a safe place to run it

Whole home emergency standby generators are located outside your home ideally near both electric and natural gas connections that serve your home. Make sure you have a place at least 20 feet away from any doors or windows to place your generator when it is in use.

3, Know the wattage of your necessary items

If you want a generator for keeping your appliances operational, make sure you know the wattage of the items you will want to use so you can purchase a generator that is powerful enough to be of use.
