What about a generator.

There is a check valve on the return lines now. You'll see that when I get to the more recent plumbing pictures.
I don't have a generator. Except in case of a direct hit by a hurricane (in which case the tank is the least of my worries), we really don't loose power very often, and when we do it's not for very long. The longest outage I've experienced since moving to Tampa 11 years ago) was about 3 hours. Also, with no DSB and a light load, the tank can go for a week without power with no major losses. I do have some battery operated air stones as well.
