    • Type Choices Matter – Inverter models offer silent, fuel-efficient operation—great for sensitive electronics. Dual-fuel models give flexibility with gas or propane.

    • Portable Generators vs. Whole-House Units – Ideal for targeted loads and emergency use, they’re not designed to power entire homes continuously like standby generators.
