    Curious if he is a Generac dealer or distributor or just a guy who does installs. Because if there's one thing I know it's people with Generacs have a couple bucks in their pocket. That could be a lucrative deal you've got going.

    He's a dealer and installer, he and his family have their own HVAC business. He and his brother were Cole's baseball coaches this past season :thumbsup:

    When I came to work for the power company I bought one. I couldn’t be working out of town while mumma was at home without power, or to run an extension cord through the door. It was $$ but I had to do it. Luckily I have an electric license and a buddy who does propane. I did just set mine on the concrete pad generac sells for them though.

    He sets them on pads as well. Some of the houses in the hills of Virginia (like mine), it's easier for him to put the legs in concrete and get them level with a stand is the only reason he does them this way sometimes.

    Hopefully we can get one some day, right now I still hook the welder to the house. The guy who I made the stand for is the one who put my generator plug on my house when we moved in.

    I’m Not well versed in Generac’s but so far the experience I’ve had has Not been positive.
    Thing is, the TV add says 1 in 4 or 5 homes have Generac generators but only thousands of happy customers. At least they didn’t lie.

    Calling @RustyGreen, what are we looking at here? This was parked at my favorite “helpful hardware man” store. I like the 6 carbs but that would be some work getting them synced.

    Mine's been happy on patio stones for 15 years. Does the area flood?

    The service tech loves you!

    Why they have to install these ground level, I don't know!

    Having this up a bit will ensure these units will be the 1 st to get their annual maintenance.
