Firman Tri-fuel generator unbox and setup.

Generator: www.costco.com/firman-7500w-r...
NG Hose: amzn.to/3PvjcTH
Setting up this generator for a whole home generator. It is a tri fuel meaning I can run it on gasoline, propane, and natural gas. I’m setting this up with a generlink too run my whole house in the event of an emergency. In this video of the series I am setting it up and testing it using propane. In the next series I will set it up to run on natural gas. Finally I will connect everything to the generlink.

I misspoke in the video @13:18 you can run the generator for 100 hours between oil changes AFTER the breakin period.

I like my Firman Tri-Fuel a lot, especially during the Texas freeze and assorted power outages. The same 1/2" natural gas hose I bought had a 3/8" Female by 1/2" Male brass adapter to connect to the generator. It was too long (deep) on the female end and I had to sand it down so the flange in the adapter would seal against the LP gas fitting on the generator. The other end is a 1/2" male quick disconnect fitting which easily connects to the female fitting attached at the gas valve. I ended up installing a MB Sturgis Propane Elbow Adapter at the generator's 3/8" POL fitting. It is a 3/8" Female Flare Swivel x 3/8" Male Flare (Item # 204163) that I purchased from etrailer . Then I installed the 3/8" Female x 1/2" Male brass adapter there. I can plug the 240V 30A cable to the outlet which is connected to the house electrical panel. I have a 4-ton (46,000 BTU) A/C unit. I installed a Micro-Air EasyStart 368 (4-ton) Soft Starter ASY-368-X48-BLUE. My AC unit now uses 12.8 to 13.8 Amps and a Start Peak of 33 to 36 Amps. My UPS's seem to beep & click when connected to the generator. I have a stupid power strip plugged into the battery backup side of the UPS with items plugged into the strip. All I have to do is move one plug to the surge protector side. And then turn off UPS. Surge protector should still work.

[@alanrodgers4156]

Great explanation! I plan to do the same. How long is your 1/2” gas line ?

[@rwstarke]

@@alanrodgers4156 24 feet long NG hose. The elbow adapter keeps the hose close to the generator and prevents tripping over the hose. Now it is easy to store the 1/2" NG hose on top of the tank. Trying to line up the cable plug with the inlet at night? Take a marker or white-out and make a line on the plug & socket to line up the two before you twist it. Keep battery charged. Install emergency lights that come on when power goes out. Install them where you set up the generator, at the panel and maybe in the main hall of the house. Have an extra spark plug. Maintenance is easier when using natural gas to power the generator.

[@alanrodgers4156]

Great ideas! Really appreciate it. I purchased couple of spark plugs from oreilly as spare. I love your idea of marking it! I have to figure out how long of gas line I need to get, since my generator inlet box is about 75’ away from where I plan to tap the gas. Do you think 50’, 1/2” gas line might have significant loss? The The reason is because i plan to tap from the dryer gas line and my generator would be located about 50 feet away and then I will have 25 feet 50 amp extension cord to connect to my generator inlet box. I don’t know 50 ‘ gas line and 25’ feet extension line would be better or 25 feet gas line and 50’ feet extension cord to the generator inlet would be more efficient?

[@rwstarke]

@@alanrodgers4156 Not knowledgeable about the gas line length. You will have to research. 50 amp cord? The generator puts out 31.25A at the 50A outlet (page 6 of the manual). You can find a chart for amps, wire size and distance somewhere on the internet.

[@shanwar9844]

I'm no expert but I believe the generator ground lug is only for running the machine independently of your house. If you connect it to your panel you need to follow the manufacturer directions to convert the generator to a floating neutral because the machine will use your panels earth ground.

[@shanwar9844]

Oh and no choke needed on lpg or natural gas from everything I've learned.

[@BryanHansen]

Depends if you need a bonded or non bonded connection. Some furnace controllers need a bonded connection. If running a transfer switch it should used the house ufer ground. If using it through an extension cord to a furnace (emergency situation) you will likely need to use the ground lug.

[@BryanHansen]

​@@shanwar9844 Not correct. You still use the choke for the NG or LPG operation. "NOTICE When the main fuel selector switch is turned to the LPG/NG position, the indicator light will turn RED for up to 4 minutes (before going off). Starting the engine successfully anytime during the 4 minutes will turn the indicator light GREEN. See Indicator light-Battery Power Saving Mode section for more information. 7. Disconnect all electrical loads from the generator. Never start or stop the generator with electrical devices plugged in. 8. Move choke lever located on engine to “START” position" (for electric start jump to step 12) 12. For electric start only - Flip the engine switch to the START (ll) position for a few seconds and then release. 13. For electric start only - Move the choke lever to the RUN position. 3 sec. 14. Allow portable generator to run at no load for a few minutes to stabilize before plugging in any electrical devices

I read people complaining about the loud noise this Firman T07571 unit makes. My main concern more than the noise is dirty power it apparently provides. At 11%-14% THD, I'm concerned electronics will get damaged. Anyone have comments/opinions on this point?

[@BryanHansen]

In my research most "noise" about dirty power are from people who don't own the unit and "think" it won't work well. The THD means it isn't as efficient, not that it is supplying horrible power. Every single person I know that has run this generator and ran it in a whole home scenario like I am has nothing but good things to say about it. This was one of the preferred generators for a generlink transfer switch. I should note that there wasn't a single Honda generator on that list. Honda being the gold standard that everyone seems to hold everybody else to, doesn't even have a model to run with their transfer switch.

Hey Chris, glad you were saved! That was so disheartening to watch. I would absolutely move the generator closer what you want to power rather than run more extension cords to what you want to power.

Find non ethanol gasoline if you can. That alone has a shelf life of half a year or so but regular pump gas will be fine too. Then get a bottle of Sta-Bil for $10 and add however much you need for the ratio of fuel. This will extend the shelf life to 2 years so that the generator will be ready to rock in case of an outage. After using it for an outage run it with fuel shut off switch on until it shuts off and there is no more gasoline in carburetor. Easy peasy and far more convenient and powerful to use gasoline anyway during an outage unless you want to get a 500 lb propane tank installed or just so happen to have a natural gas line.

[@BryanHansen]

@@kitchentrout5867 Tell that to the Honda generator I had that is now ruined after one year. Literally 91 octane ethanol free with sta-bil in it. The whole storing gas thing sounds great in theory until it’s not. I am using natural gas because I do have a line right to my house. I also have propane tanks as well.

[@MrPatdeeee]

@@BryanHansen Well they do it all the time. So I'm thinking that we could connect the NG in the inlet on the propane regulator. Thanks for your reply.

[@BryanHansen]

@@MrPatdeeee the only thought I had about it is that NG is already low pressure on your house. Adding a regulator might lower the pressure more. Test it, it might get a lower pressure shutoff with the propane regulator if it restricts too much of the already low pressure.

@@BryanHansen Thank you kind Sir. I have got an idea: In my propane regulator there is a long hose from it's outlet. to the carburetor. So I am going to buy a "Y" fitting. With two stop knobs. This would let the NG going after the propane. And the "Y" fitting would determine which is going thorough. You can see tha "Y" on Amazon. In that way, the NG would go straight to the Carb...when the Propane is stopped. And vicy versa when the NG is stopped; it goes through the propane regulator. I can't wait. And I owe it all to you. when You said in the beginning of yur video. That we do NOT need a regulator of a home NG. Because they have ALREADY regulated. Thanks. kind Sir. I believe this will work to make my Generator a TRI-Fuel Whoopee! Wow! I will let you know IF it works or doesn't.

Mine won’t stay on consistently and it’s brand new, added the required oil, and added gas that was only a month and a half old, it starts up and runs and then bogs and sputters and picks back up again until it bogs and then cuts off, it’s brand new! What’s wrong??

[@BryanHansen]

Are you running it on gas or propane or natural gas?

@@Pfillwieffer try running some seafoam through it. amzn.to/3vRsF2L

Make sure your choke isn’t on too

[@Pfillwieffer]

Even though it’s brand new? Also yeah I made sure after start up to put my choke to the run position. Thanks for the tips

Looks too "delicate" for me. I live in Florida and I have 3 older gennys. One is a fifteen year old Coleman. All Gas only and super-dependable. Sometimes 2 years between uses...but when I need them... they start....every time. I do a very close check of the units before they are carefully stored, ready for the next emergency.

[@BryanHansen]

What is “delicate” in your opinion. Having just had a Honda die on me, I’m more than impressed with this so far.

[@goobfilmcast4239]

@@BryanHansen oh… it’s nice but I have concerns about the carb/regulator and the really proprietary control panel.

What is the capacity of this generator?

I list all the capacities in the video

@@BryanHansen I wanted to buy one, but I don't think delivery to Algeria is available.

Nope CO carbon monoxide is slightly lighter than air and diffuses evenly throughout your garage
