Two things, forget gasoline and get a propane fired generator if you have propane available. Gasoline stores poorly unless expensive additives are used. The second thing is that it takes 4KW to start a refrigerator, 1KW will not do.
One thing most people don’t think about, if you want to utilize the full capacity out of it at 120V you will need an adaptor cord for the 240V outlet. Otherwise, you will only get about half of the generators capacity.
I think the frequency/duration of your outages need to be considered.
I have a 7500 watt Diesel. I can run 3 refrigerators and 3 wall AC’s during a power outage and light half the house. It’s a tank.
