Cummins builds all the continuous duty natural gas generators and they are expensive.
The way I plan to do it is take a Kubota or yanmar liquid cooled diesel engine, turbo intercool it to increase fuel economy by 10% and run natural gas intake fumigation.
Use the prime mover to direct drive a 4 pole Kohler split phase 120/240v generator.
Then run the exhaust through a large EGR cooler to heat the house along with the engine coolant during the winter.
