Fuel use
| Fuel | Half load | Full load |
|---|---|---|
| Propane | 1.81 gal/hr | 3.07 gal/hr |
| Natural gas | 195 ft³/hr | 256 ft³/hr |
On propane, a 500-gallon tank filled to 80% holds about 400 gallons. That runs the Generac Guardian 14kW for about 221 hours (9.2 days) nonstop at half load, or about 130 hours (5.4 days) at full load. See how much propane a generator uses for other tank sizes.
On natural gas, the gas line and meter have to deliver the full-load figure, 256 ft³/hr, even if the generator rarely runs that hard. Installers size the pipe to it.
