Well we were so very blessed. We never lost anything, power, water, nuthin'! YET!!
However, we're all electric and in the middle of nowhere... Had we lost power, we'd have been in a pickle! I have a small genny that I'd planned to run my well with, but I went to the barn to just fire it up and the little sucker just would not run dependably so I took the carb off and cleaned it up as best I could and it still did not run right... I hadn't used it in a couple years, but it was run dry of gas... I actually have 2 of them (Honda eu2000i's) and neither would run right...
That won't happen again! For the pump house I ordered 2 new carbs and gasket sets for the small gennys... Will be getting quotes on a properly sized Cumin's generator set for the house... Will also buy and install a good wood burning heater/stove... I'll have plan A and plan B before next Winter, and The generator set will be in before hurricane season starts... We've been out here for 5 years and have had excellent electrical service. We've never lost power really other than one time and they sent us a notice that power would be interrupted over a few day period for some maintenance... It was out maybe 1-2 hours total over that time... But having said that, I don't want to put myself in a situation where I have been this past week where if power had gone out, I had no way of running anything and no way of heating anything...

This works really well also, but not quite as portable. I’ve cooked on it plenty at home though. Both run off the $3-4 Coleman 1 lb canisters.

I may learn more about a well for my pool filling, yard sprinklers and if we loose water during bad weather. Some of my neighbors have them.
