Czech Republic Generator Buying Guide and Tips

• Right size, right circuit: Calculate essential loads—fridge, lighting, pumps, router. Small homes: 2–3 kW inverters. Larger houses/workshops: 5–10 kW+ or diesel gensets.
• Noise matters: Inverter units are ~50–60 dB at 7 m. Open-frame petrol ~70–85 dB. Diesel in acoustic housings ~65–75 dB. Check local bylaws for residential areas.
• Fuel choice: Petrol inverters are portable for short outages. Diesel offers efficiency and long runtimes. LPG/dual-fuel sets can simplify fuel storage in rural areas.
• Safety first: Use certified electricians to install changeover switches/ATS—never backfeed your home’s wiring.
• Power quality: Protect electronics with pure sine wave inverters or AVR-equipped units plus surge protectors.
• Cords & outlets: Use 230 V-rated extension cords, short runs, and always add RCD protection.
• Maintenance: Change oil after first 5–20 hrs, then every 50–100 hrs or annually. Stock plugs, filters, and spare oil. Test monthly under load.
• Storage & weather: Store in a dry, ventilated area. In winter, use fuel stabilizer and keep batteries on a maintainer.
