The tube size is determined by the square footage of the area that's being protected. The smallest tube, SD300, is for the water heater and it's $159.
Let me just say that for all of the areas in my Momentum 376 TH (generator/battery area, water heater, refer, furnace/ATS/surge guard and back side of breaker panel) was $1,700. That was before I started working for them....that's retail.
Initially, I thought it was a little pricey but then I remembered how much I paid to upgrade my tires, I remembered what I paid for disc brakes, I remembered what I paid for my Trav'ler satellite Dish system, etc. etc. and considering how much my wife and my dog's safety is worth, how much I'd save if there was a fire while we were gone and one of these tubes saved our Momentum..... I realized it is very affordable!SOLD my 2017 Momentum 376TH being pulled by a 2014 Ford F-350 Lariat, FX-4, Crew Cab, Longbed, Dually. Not pulling the 5er, catch me on my 2013 CVO Harley Ultra Classic.

I just pulled in to the Oasis RV Resort here in Las Vegas for the Grand Design Rally. If you would like to talk with me about the automatic fire suppression system THIA by Proteng send me a message or stop by Space #150 .

It's scary, and yes, those poor people and their dogs.
As many of you may know, I've had all sorts of issues with my generator failing while driving. Had it to Onan three times, they can't recreate the issue because you have to drive it to make it fail. They did some work though, put some wrap around the carb, and some other stuff that might help (it hasn't).
Anyway, out working on it the other day, and I was looking at how to get the fuel pump out and tracing the fuel lines and noticed that the last time Onan took it apart, they decided not to clamp the fuel line back to the carb?!!!!
I about lost it. Not only did they not fix it having had the rig for over a month, but they made a MASSIVELY unsafe condition. I can only imagine if that line popped off when the genny was hot and started spraying gasoline over the enclosed/red hot engine. That wouldn't have ended well, let's put it that way.
There's a lot that can go wrong in these things. You'd think that safety stuff like that would be high on the list of things checked by dealers/mechanics. Apparently not; and I'm 100% sure if my rig had burned, I'd get exactly 0 help from Onan on it, even though it was obviously their fault.

Why is Halon nasty stuff? I used to work in large water cooled computer rooms and the vast majority used Halon suppression systems. You can actually breath Halon for a short time (long enough to escape) with very little (if any) ill effects. I know it's bad for the environment, which is why it was banned.
