What you heard was the gens response to the quick high starting load imposed by the pump. The gen should immediately stabilize to the diminishing load as the pump starts. Maybe you meant, "once the pump stopped starting it quickly stabilized".I have 7000 watt/8750 starting power generator with a transfer switch. Electrician turned the well on while testing it, he flushed the toilet a few times until the tank bladder was down enough that the pump kicked in. He wanted me to hear what happens. Generator made a quick louder blip sound. But once the pump stopped it quickly stabilized. Around here we mostly have propane heat and water heaters and most neighbors have generators 5500-8000 watts (continuous). As long as we have gas to run a generator, it'll do what we need to stay comfortable.
