In the middle of summer, St. George Utah temperatures can average a high of 102 degrees F (July's maximum average temperature). This very hot weather can reduce generator performance. Electric generators will achieve their best wattage results at 85 ° F or lower. Above 85 ° F, you will lose 1 % for every 5 ° F, and 2 % for every 10 ° Fahrenheit.
Elevation here in St. George is 2860 feet above sea level. The rule of thumb for calculating the impact that elevation has on generator performance is a 3.5% power loss for every 1000 feet of elevation gain above sea level.
Therefore, to make the elevation calculation for St. George, you would do the following:
2.860 * 3.5 = 10.01%
So figure getting about 90% of the rated power when operating a generator in St. George, UT.
