5K might do that Fred but if you actually read the labels on the appliances and add up the wattage, you'll have a better idea how much you need. My dad has a 6500 watt and he does several circuts in his house, runs the boiler, lights in a few places even outside, micro, refer and freezer and TV. I have a 4000 watt and can do a refer and freezer along with one light, it has in the past run my hot air furnace with refer but that is pushing it .

get a tleast a 5000 but a bigger is better.

Like Slip said.
BBJ, it will cost you more $$ but imho you cannot beat the Honda
for reliability and QUIET. Mine is 10 years old, starts on first pull
and is very quiet.
It idles down to a wisper when it's not being
drawn from.

Ya get tired of the drone of a cheap generator real quick.
