Glad to hear it.
The 2 fridges & freezer are the highest priority for the generator.
I don't have the house wired for it.
I harnessed together a bundle of heavy duty ext. cords.
Only takes about 8 minutes to get those, the cable/internet, and three room powered up.
Having no TV or internet would drive my wife & I nuts.
