Depends how thick your walls are. If you're thinking about using that
machine for home power, it's a bad idea. It's only suitable in that
role for temporary use. Very inefficient, and the hours will add up
quickly. Combined with a modest inverter/charger and some batteries
you could cut the gen run time in half easily enough though. Even
better, scale up the inverter/battery setup and cut the gen time to a
couple hours per day.
