Diesel generators are a trusted choice for reliable backup power, especially for those who need long-lasting, fuel-efficient options. Diesel generators are distinct from gas generators in several key areas: cost, maintenance, fuel efficiency, portability, noise levels, and fuel availability. Diesel fuel typically costs more than gasoline, but diesel generators are known for their durability and fuel efficiency, often requiring less fuel over time. Diesel engines are also generally more robust and require less frequent maintenance than their gas counterparts.
On the downside, diesel generators are usually louder, less portable, and larger and heavier. However, diesel fuel is widely available and can be stored longer, making it an ideal choice for emergency standby power.
