Why a TriFuel Generator?

The biggest benefit for a Tri-Fuel Generator is that you don't have to rely on just one type of fuel. While gasoline is generally in good supply it does have two distinct drawbacks.

1: It cannot be reliably stored for long periods of time. It wicks moisture out of the air and becaomes stale, losing it's flash point.

2: In case of wide scale power outages over long periods Gas Stations cannot pump fuel out of their tanks because of the power outage. If you could store large amounts of gasoline over a long time this wouldn't be a problem (refer to #1).

Now that we know gasoline doesn't make long term sense, let's look at our other options.

Q: Don't Propane (LPG) and Natural Gas (NG) have their own draw backs?

A: They do.Propane ( LPG) must be kept pressurized so you can only store as much as you have a tank for. Natural Gas (NG) comes in unlimited volumes but it must be in a stationary place. If your preparing for a disaster then the disaster (think earth quake) could take out the infrastructure that supplies Natural Gas (NG).

Confused yet? Here's the key:

The reason TriFuel is the way to go is simple. It gives you options. If you want to take your generator camping you can use gasoline or propane (LPG). If you want to use your generator to power your home during a power outage from snow, rain, or wind, you can hook up to Natural Gas (NG) and run indefinitly until power is restored. An you only need one generator.

In the case of a natural disaster you have 3 options for fuel and improve your chances of surviving comfortably and not becoming a victim.
