There is such a thing as a tri-fuel generator (gasoline, LP, & NG), or
at least there used to be. So I would think that just switching between
LP and NG would be do-able. I don't know of any off the top of my head,
but I would probably ask someone at Generac.

We're going to be putting in one of the Generac 1800RPM quiet models

about, because it happened. They shut off the natural gas after the
tornado last year because houses were blown away and gas was leaking
everywhere. If that were to happen again, then our shiny expensive new
generator will be sitting there doing nothing. So we're thinking about
doing a LP tank as backup, but would like to have the primary be NG.
Has anyone done this? Two regulators and valves perhaps? I don't have
a problem manually turning some valves, but I don't wanna be out there
at o'dark:30 in the rain doing plumbing.
