Liechtenstein Generator Buying Guide and Tips

• Sizing counts: Add up essential loads (heating pumps, fridge, internet, lights). Most homes: 2–5 kW inverter; larger villas: 10–20 kVA diesel.
• Noise & location: Inverters run at ~50–60 dB @ 7 m, while open-frame petrol units can exceed 75 dB. Place units outdoors with protection.
• Fuel choice: Petrol inverters = portable & quiet. Diesel = efficiency & long runtimes for standby. LPG dual-fuel can ease storage and reduce emissions.
• Safety: Use certified electricians for ATS/changeover installation. Never backfeed the grid.
• Power quality: Protect electronics with pure sine wave inverters or AVR sets + surge protection.
• Maintenance: Early oil change at 5–20 hours; then every 50–100 hours or annually. Stock oil, filters, and spark plugs.
• Winter prep: Store fuel safely, use stabilizer, and keep batteries charged with a battery maintainer.
• Accessories: Covers, wheel kits, fuel cans, rated cords, and UPS units for routers and PCs.
