He most likely paid $15K for the genset and the install. Got to have a union landscaper, union carpenter, union electrician and what ever other union guys to install the genset. Naw. The two guys who delivered the genset were non-union Latinos who put the wood frame on the ground, filled it with gravel and then set the genny on top and leveled it. They told me the genset weighs close to 500 pounds. No landscaper. The trench for the gas line was put in by a laborer running a "ditch witch." He's an employee of the LP gas company. The actual gas line and hookups were installed by a licensed union plumber. He was quick and fastidious. The electrical part of the job was quite complicated because we have two 200-amp breaker boxes and we needed some circuits switched from one box to another (only one breaker box is hooked to the genny), and, in fact, all the wiring is rather complex. I've got some photos of the process on one of my SD cards. I'll post some at a later date. Took a two man crew of electricians pretty much a full work day to do the inside and outside work. Oh...they were both licensed *union* electricians, of course. Glad you asked. Oh...the snarly comments from you and others? No greater incentive is needed to NOT post boat photos or boating related posts. No need to feed you trolls. The genny is probably sleeker and more beautiful than your imaginary boat. Why is it that we have pictures of all your real toys but none of the boat? |
