What are the Essential Factors to Consider When Renting a Generator?
As we wrap up November and head into the holiday season, there's still a chance of storms that could cause power outages. If you're planning any large gatherings over the next couple of months and want to ensure the lights and appliances stay on, renting a backup generator is a great option.
Here are some key factors to consider when renting a generator:
• Size - Make sure to rent a generator big enough to handle the electrical load you need, while also considering noise and portability. Know the essential items you want to be powered.
• Fuel Type - Generator fuel types include gas, diesel, propane, and natural gas. Each has pros and cons regarding convenience, price, noise, and output.
• Noise Level - Determine suitable noise levels that won't disturb your event. Inverter generators tend to be quieter.
• Budget - Generator rental costs vary widely depending on size, fuel type, noise level, and other features. Define your needs and compare rental companies.
• Safety Features - Ensure the model you select has protective features to prevent electrocution, fires, and dangerous fumes. Properly grounding a generator is critical.
