The last Hurricane we had here in south Florida, our power was off for 2 weeks. Since then I had a Generac Generator installed, since then the power has only been of a few seconds before the Genset kicks in.
We installed a Generac 7 years ago. It comes on every Monday morning for about 10 min. It is for the whole house Aircon, fridges and freezers. We live in Florida so if we have a power outage all the standby food and drinks would be spoiled and we would be sweating a lot. I think it is a 20Kw. Generac offers a maintenance contract for about $500 a year 2 visits to make sure the oil, battery etc. is good. They did the check up yesterday and now we are good again for the next 6 month. Oh by the way it is hooked up to the natural gas pipe which seams to work even when we had a power failure for 3 weeks a few years back.

There is nothing new about Canadian fires causing air quality issues. On May 19, 1780, folks in New England thought they were facing the end of time. Total darkness in the daytime.
