Standby Generators be.

Propane vs Natural Gas Standby Generator


For residential use, generators run on either natural gas or liquid propane. Natural gas can keep your generator running for weeks, while liquid propane will keep power for several days. Generators produce more power while operating on liquid propane, as the fuel supply is limited, depending upon the size of the storage tank. If buying a larger generator and using liquid propane as the fuel source, it is recommended to increase the size of the fuel tank to ensure lasting power for more than a few days.

Natural Gas (NG)

  • Offers a virtually endless supply of fuel
  • If available in your municipality, natural gas can be added to your home

Liquid Propane (LP)


  • May need the propane tank refilled at some point due to normal usage, depending upon the size of the tank and the requirements of the generator
  • IF you already have an LP tank, it may need to be sized up to power our standby generator
  • LP is typical in rural areas where natural gas is not available

Most homes can operate equally well on either fuel source type, but it depends what the home has to offer. Natural gas is supplied by the municipality through the existing infrastructure or you are responsible for having a propane tank and piping installed on the property.
