I had exactly that happen.

We go away for vacations and all of our family is "back east." Two
years ago, we came home to a prolonged power failure which caused
everything in the basement to freeze.

When everything finally thawed out, there was water shooting out all
over the place. Can you say, "Plumbing: the crash course?"

An automatic transfer switch and generator would have averted that.
All I would have needed to do is have the propane tank topped off
before we left.
