Like the last person asked, how loud is it, and also how did you hook it up to your house? Is this a good deal? I'm in South Florida and considering for some hurricane protection as well

$1250 at Home Depot with great reviews there too. Tempting.

Edit: Actually the most helpful reviews have some strong complaints about the function and support. Gotta check on the Sam's return policy. Also a lot of them are importing reviews from the manufacturer website, which should be illegal.

It's loud. I have no decibel information but it's jarringly loud.

We bought this last year after the first big storm in Houston (the derecho - google it if you have no clue what this is) and luckily before the hurricane. I installed an electric hookup and NG hookup. I have a 2 story 3300 sq ft home in Houston and it can run my 5 ton or 3 ton ac unit-but not both. Possibly can do both if i get soft start, not sure tho. I ended up running the 3 ton, powered literally everything else up in house and used a window ac unit in the master bdr which is downstairs (where the 5 ton runs). This serves the same purpose as a $15-20k generac for a fraction of cost. I've been happy with it. A few neighbors have the same unit and everyone is happy.

Houston here also. What parts did you purchase for both hookup and did you hire someone to install them? TIA!

This is a solid deal. I actually purchased the WGen 11500TFc and it was $1500. It does put out a bit more power and has FAR BETTER THD but it was $500 more than this one. I will ONLY be using natural gas and piped it myself, which is why I bought the bigger generator. I did the gas piping and electrical work myself, and ran the generator for 30 minutes for break in (should be an hour).
This is everything I bought to pimp it out:

***EDIT***
2 things. Noise level on these generators is pretty loud. It is what it is but you will have power in an emergency. Also, the next generator up I skipped on for 2 reasons. First, the generator is pretty huge and heavy. Second, it is battery start only, which I absolutely hate. Here is the next one up from mine:

I keep it outside. It doesn't prohibit sleep, but it isn't quiet.

"I installed" = hired someone to do it 😂 About $500 for the gas hookup which got extended off my pool's NG pipe and included the quick release valve. The electric was done by a certified electrician, I think in the $400-500 range if I recall and included the 50amp. Some of this was done in midst of impending weather crisis so that may have affected pricing a bit.

Isn't there a thing that goes on after the meter and you can just plug in that way?

Problem with a big generator powering your home is the fuel consumption. It takes a lot of fuel if you are using gasoline. Gasoline isn't always easy to find after a storm. I go with a smaller generator and turn the bedroom into a bunker with a window shaker and run a refrigerator. Run time is much longer per gallon of fuel.
