A generator is only as good as its fuel supply: properly sized gas lines, propane tanks and diesel storage.
Fuel is the most overlooked part of a generator project. A generator that does not get enough gas flow will not carry its load, and an undersized propane tank means a short outage window. We evaluate your supply before recommending equipment, then design the line, tank or storage to match.
For natural gas, we check meter capacity, pipe sizing and run length and coordinate with your gas provider. For propane, we size the tank to your run-time goals and plan placement and regulators. For diesel, we plan storage, containment and fuel quality.
Pipeline supply, no tank to refill, sized to your generator.
A tank sized to your run-time goals, with safe placement.
On-site storage with containment and fuel-quality planning.
Right diameters for the load and distance.
Shutoffs, regulators and flexible connectors installed correctly.
We work with the gas provider when meter upgrades are needed.
Estimate propane gallons or natural gas use for your generator size and load, and how long a tank will last.

Maybe. Larger generators need more flow than many meters provide. We check and coordinate any upgrade with the gas provider.
It depends on tank size and load. Our Runtime and Fuel Calculator gives a planning estimate.
