How do inverter generators differ from traditional generators?
Inverter generators convert AC electricity to DC electricity and then inverts the power back to AC. This process makes inverters more fuel efficient and cleaner than standard generators.
What size inverter generator is ideal for home backup power?
While inverter generators can be used as a home backup source for small items and appliances, they cannot provide enough wattage to power major appliances. Home stand-by generators provide more reliable backup power for houses.
