We decided that best to be prepared because things can change on a dime (look at the pandemic- who would have thought?). We have propane tanks for our furnace so we did also have to have Rymes come to do the connection.

We got 3 estimates and theirs was the most competitive and their suggestions were the most practical.

I was just disappointed that I could not have my electric stove/oven on it like I did in our former home. We lost power on holidays sometimes and it was good to be able to cook that turkey anyway!

The only other things not on it are the central ac, the dryer and the dishwasher.
Happy for you, but you correct. Power outages in the Weirs are few & far between...like years.
