Natural gas in my area so the fuel supply is essentially unlimited, however it only puts out 18k on NG if you read the fine print.
That unit looks like the same series as the one I got. Even 18k is far more than the average home needs unless you're trying to run the dryer, oven and electric water heater too.

This one was $2400 at Costco, complete with the Txfer switch.

G-Benz, wiring is easy! 4 in and 4 out and some low voltage control. I've seen the work you've done with stereo installs and you could do it!
