I am looking at both also probably a 26KW I have heard that Kohler is the better engine than the Briggs & Stratton but I know people who have both and are very happy. I am getting a 500 or 250 propane tank I was told that 250 which is about 200 gallons can run your generator for about a week.

Its my understanding a 250 gallon propane tank is too small for a 14kw and up generator in a very cold climate because of the smaller surface area in the tank to get enough evaporation of the liquid to gas. I was told a minimum 500 gallon tank was necessary. I’m in east Idaho and colder than 20 degree below weather is not unheard of. My generator is on NG I’ve never put a propane back up supply in but I am thinking about it.
