Re: Should we put the system i on a UPS for the entire room?

Our natural gas generator switches on every Monday morning for a duration 
of time.
Two things we have found.  One, there's a little, like, 9v battery in 
there.  When that goes things do NOT work as well.  Two, when it is very 
bone chilling cold outside the generator can have issues.  Frequent tests 
help you learn these things.
Generac.  They're a customer of ours.  Just quintupled their orders with 
us.

During one outage the weakest link turned out to be some relay between the 
generator, power supply and the UPS.  Bummer when you fork out that sort 
of money and Murphy still figures out a way to burn you.  I think I heard 
someone else on the list have the same issue.

The generator is sized to run the whole building.  A/C, lights and all. 
Hey, hard to keep the machine running if the room warms up too much. 
Fumbling around in the dark is not conducive to business either.
