I'd be very grateful to hear of any solutions that you guys have come up with in this arena. Also, any recommendations for generators? I'm not looking for something huge, just something that can be mounted on a roof. If I have to pour diesel into it every couple hours, that's fine too.

You need an automatic transfer switch. Asco and Kohler both make very good ones. Square-D, GE and the other electrical component companies make medium and huge units, but it sounds like you need a small one. This would normally be installed along with your generator.
