You will love your new Generac...ours is 9 years old, (12kW I think), and runs/operates like a charm.
And, no one ever runs everything in the house at one time, so your 17 or 20 kW will more than adequate.

The only down sides to ours: it's a rock climb to get down and change the oil & filter once per year, and ours
is air cooled and thus shuts itself off after ~ 8 hrs, to cool for ~ 45 mins, when we lose power for a long
time period. My neighbor has a diesel fueled/water cooled Genny and his can run as long as he has diesel.
You will enjoy yours!
