Same here. 110 volt in the house but the pump in the well is 220 volt. Usually when the power goes off, ther is melt water comming off the roof that we use to flush the toilet. We stock drinking water. I drain the hot water tank for washing our face and hands.

LG, you have to store the generators dry/no gas in the tank. Only put gas in then when you run them. Drain the gas when not in use. There are some fuel stabilizers. I don't know how well they work.
usually a "shellacked" carburetor can be cleaned and re-used.

I could find it I suppose. I don't know off hand. I could look.
