Got an 1800 sq ft house with 4 ton a/c, electric range, washer, dryer, microwave and various low draw lights, etc.
What is a good kw number for a "whole house" generator that will, for sure, run the lights and a/c, at least? I'm thinking 15kw would do it, once stuff was online. I'm told to go from the biggest load to the smallest in bringing stuff online.
