blackout
In everyday life, power outages can occasionally occur in the home. These incidents are usually resolved quickly, and therefore the power outage is only temporary. A blackout, on the other hand, refers to a prolonged, widespread power outage. The consequences are far-reaching and indefinite. People have to manage without electricity for an indefinite period.
Why take precautions?
It's wise to prepare for a blackout and take the necessary precautions. A blackout is a prolonged power outage. This leads to the failure of everyday and essential services such as communication, lighting, and heating. Therefore, it's advisable to have an emergency power supply β for example, the WALTER 2600W generator or the 1000W inverter generator .
Since the pumps at gas stations are also out of service, you have no access to gasoline. To ensure you remain mobile, WALTER offers a wide selection of gasoline canister sets . This way, you'll have fuel in an emergency.
Unfortunately, you can't choose when a power outage occurs. To avoid sitting in a cold home during the winter, the wide range of WALTER heaters and space heaters provides the necessary warmth.
Even hot plates fail without electricity. To prepare hot meals, it makes sense to use gas-powered appliances. The WALTER portable gas stove or the compact camping gas grill give you the necessary independence.
Such an exceptional situation is not easy. But with the right preparation and the appropriate equipment from WALTER in your home, you can also weather a blackout well.
Fully equipped
With WALTER through the blackout
With its diverse product range, WALTER offers a wide selection of helpful products in such an exceptional situation.
First, you should define exactly what you need to compensate for each failure:
A generator proves to be the most versatile device. It not only provides heat and light, but also communication, as it can also be used to charge devices such as radios or mobile phones.
WALTER offers two different high-performance models. Both WALTER models are petrol-powered, making them perfect for working in remote areas around the house and garden!
A gasoline-powered generator naturally requires a gasoline can . Gasoline is vital in an emergency. You should keep gasoline on hand not only for the generator but also for your car, so that people can be supplied as quickly as possible in an emergency.
Another essential and versatile helper is the WALTER gas patio heater with piezo ignition . Gas also has a longer shelf life compared to gasoline. This heat source not only helps you during a power outage, but can also extend those summer or autumn evenings.
However, if you need a lot of heat and power, you are better off with a professional gas heater, as it has much more power and can therefore quickly heat up marquees or workshops.
But be careful, you should not operate gas and petrol appliances in enclosed spaces without air circulation!!!
An electric alternative would be, for example, the halogen patio heater . Thanks to its wheels, it's particularly flexible and also features an integrated table. With it, even in unpleasant weather, enjoyable evenings are guaranteed, both indoors and out. And in winter, it's perfect for a cozy mulled wine evening in your own garden.

The necessary warmth is essential!
Now all that's missing is a way to prepare hot meals. But WALTER is perfectly equipped for this too. Cooking without electricity is child's play with WALTER products. The Gourmet camping stove is a reliable helper, whether camping, hiking, or in an emergency at home. It impresses with its ease of use, is compactly stored in its carrying case, and is ready to use immediately. The side-loading gas cartridge is securely held in place, and the piezo ignition ensures a quick start β no matches or lighter required.

Things to know about blackouts

Heating without electricity
It's winter, cold, and suddenly the power goes out. Whether you heat with gas, oil, or a heat pump β electricity is needed for all heating systems . Here you'll find out what options are available for heating without electricity and which alternatives are the best.
Water on!
To ensure the water quickly reaches the right place, a hose cart or hose reel is ideal. Hose reels can be wall-mounted and retract automatically with a short pull, making the tedious winding and knotting of hoses a thing of the past.
A hose reel is usually more flexible in its use, as it can be easily moved thanks to its wheels. This allows for easy and effortless access to different water connections.
WALTER products combine useful features for everyday life and top performance in exceptional situations.
