All depends on what you will be powering with the generator. Just air conditioning or what else determines the size you will need. If you get solar, you will not need a generator unless you use the air conditioning and have no hook ups, one or the other but not both are needed.

We are planning to use the generator to run Air Conditioning, microwave, lights, TV, charging devices-not at the same time.

I have a Yamaha 2400 EF2400ISHC inverter generator that will run all of those.
