Generator/HydroHot Shut Off Fuel Level

[JavaJelly]

My coach has a 150 gallon fuel tank.

My experience is that a generator shuts off at 1/4 tank. However, don't know if that's true w/such a large fuel tank vs. my last coach. (150 vs. 90) Is it perhaps at a gallon level?

Also, HydroHot is working well below the 1/4 tank level. Is there a limit for it too, or will it draw to empty?

Got this response from HydroHot directly.


Scott,

As a general rule , the fuel stand pipe sets around 6-8 inches off the bottom of the tank , with that being said the Hydro - Hot will stop drawing fuel at a 1/4 of a tank.

However, I'm below at an 1/8th now and still working. I'll have to ask a tech directly while in Nappannee.

I was told 1/4 of a tank in Nappanee as well, but I too have experienced the same...
