How to Prepare Your Generator for Winter Use

Winter is right around the corner, which means it’s time to brace yourself for power outages galore. When nature decides to throw a hissy fit of snow, ice, and frozen winds, the first thing that tends to crаp out is your electricity. Unless you’ve got a trusty backup generator prepped and ready for battle!

But just like your furnace and space heaters, generators need some TLC before the cold sets in. Otherwise, you could be left in the dark (literally) when you need that portable power plant the most. Trying to get an unprepared generator fired up in freezing temperatures is about as fun as a snowball fight with an angry yeti.
