Good generator for whole house

I was happy to break the generator in and put my entire property on generator load. The well pump, water heater and AC all work under generator power (not at the same time - this is for emergency use only).

Electric start up mounted on top of horse trailer

I bought this not really thinking that the electric remote start up was going to be much of anything. But it is workimg great. My wife hated the other generator cause she had to climb up top to pull start it but now she loves the remote and i dont have to worry about her doing all that. Very reliable in the rain also if needed. Keeps running and doesnt trip out like others ive had.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Dual Fuel Powerhouse

from Greenville, TX
I bought this a couple months ago and it has saved us during power outages this summer. I love the option to use either propane or gasoline to power my house. The wireless remote is a nice bonus feature that allows me to start it up without having to go outside.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Ready for Texas grid failure
on September 12, 2021
Posted by: TexasBigDog
from Texas
After spending countless weeks researching backup power solutions for emergency backup power for my Texas home I ended up purchasing the Wgen9500DF. First and foremost for my purchase was the reputation of Westinghouse. Their track record and history had a big influence on my decision. That along with talking with current owners regarding their experiences with WH generators, their warranty and quality of craftsmanship and I was sold.
My motivation for emergency power was driven by the Texas Big Adventure this past February where the majority of residents of Texans lost power during an unexpected winter storm. We were without power for seven days due to the failure of the states' lack of preparation to maintain their power plants. Unfortunately Texas has refused to join interstate electrical grids and railed against energy regulation. Because of this, there is no oversight to keeping things working as other states do. It reminds me of having the fox be in charge of the hen house or having the prisoners run the prison.
I looked at a lot of other options such as solar and whole house generators. The cost (even with tax deductions for solar) made it prohibitive as I have a fixed monthly income.
Having a large 'portable' generator made it attractive and affordable. The fact that it's duel fuel was another factor in giving me the flexibility I required.
I would like to have wrote this review with some generator run times under my belt. But time will tell. If things go south for some reason and I have problems I will update this review.
I anticipate also purchasing small Westinghouse invertor to run sensitive electronics and medical equipment. While I could have purchased a larger invertor generator I decided that having another small form duel fuel WH backup invertor made more sense for my situation to supplement the 9500.
