I have a 30K Onan unit. I have had it about five years. It was about $10000 installed with an automatic transfer system. It also cycles once each week and runs for a short while to keep the batteries up/going.
My unit is propane powered. I have a 1000 gal tank for the house anyway. I have ran it for a week with full house services. My furnace is a corn hot water one and we cook with propane. Hot water heater is electric, if corn stove is going it does not draw any power. During that week I think it used about 150 gallons of propane.
I have been very happy with the whole system. I had a tractor powered PTO generator before. I spent a long cold day getting a tractor started when the electric went out when it was thirty below. I had this put in before the next winter. I am at the end of a long line. I am the last to get fixed if anything happens. My generator runs for real 5-6 times each year. I think it has about 300 hours on it.
