My wife and I wanted a home generator that would work automatically and switch on when the city grid failed us. We get this and more with this model capable of running most of our house, testing itself weekly, and monitoring its status. Furthermore, it communicates with my service advisor to quickly notify him of issues and facilitate a rapid resolution before a little problem becomes a big one.

The team at Storm Guardian Generators out of Alvin, TX did an awesome Job. Got many calls about the installation dates and time. Came early on the date, (was cool with me). Got everything completed in a timely manner. Cleaned everything up when finished. And now we wait for center point, not there fault. I would have to say this is a very reliable company and was very competitive on the estimate and gave me more than what other companies were offering. Thanks!! Very much appreciated! Great job guys and ladies in the office! Thanks Generac for the referral also.

I used Generac website to find a certified installer and found one in my neighborhood. They came out and done a whole house evaluation to determine my power load and suggested I needed a 22K model 7043 along with a 200 amp smart module for my 2645 sq foot home . I can’t stress enough you should use a certified installer to cover the Generac warranty. I have seen some of the bad reviews due to shabby institutions and they have nothing but problems which are not covered under warranty and the people had to pay to have a certified Generac installer to fix the problem. If they would have done that from the start their wouldn’t been any issues. I used McQuagge Electric Company here in ST. Cloud,Fl and there installation included the 3in hurricane pad, battery, 200 amp automatic transfer switch, along with a 200 amp smart module plus permits. Since I already had Blossman gas bury my 250 gallon propane tank for my spa heater I had Blossman run a line to the generator also. McQuagge Electric Company even checks to make sure the propane line is correctly installed before they even do a test run. They check anything and everything to make sure there are no issues, very professional company. The cost of the generator, hurricane pad, battery, and smart module cost as much as the installation. Which was not cheap but you Get what you pay for . Since the complete installation is not done yet I cannot comment on how good the unit works. I will do that later. I called Generac and received a 7 year warranty since they were running a ad on TV.

I would like to commend the two electricians who installed our generator, Nick Blakeman and Jake Blakeman, from Great Lakes Electrical Contracting. They arrived on time, worked with the plumber and afterwards with professional efficiency. When the job was done they went through some features and directions and suggestions with my wife and I, and set us up with our wifi and the app to use. They were a pleasure to deal with in every way.

If you’ve been thinking about purchasing a Generac for your home, I would highly recommend it! The first time we lost power, I knew then, that my families comfort was worth every penny that my Generac cost! We still had satellite service and internet! Heat, hot water.......

7 Year Warranty When we looked at purchasing a generator in March of this year we were told that if we purchased it we would get an additional seven year warranty with $695. The generator was delivered in September because of delays with Generac, which we understand, but now we are being told that because we didn't take delivery in the month that we purchased it that we cannot have the warranty because it was with a third party supplier. I don't think we should be penalized because Generac was unable to supply the generator in a timely manner. Would you please contact me and let me know why my purchase promise is not being honored?

Out generator was installed while we were experiencing 2 hurricanes! We were blessed to not be without power and have not used our generator as of yet, but there is another hurricane set to make landfall within the next few hours so we are happy to be set up and ready.

This isn't a review. It's a question. Suppose you have a generator running for your whole house, but at night you just have a couple of night lights on or you want all your clocks to not reset, so you would have to run your generator 24/7 and waste propane/gas just to trickle a little electricity. Why can't they pair a generator up with a power cell, then the generator can run full bore for an hour or so to charge the batter cell and then turn off. When the batter gets low, the generator turns back on. In this way you don't need to choose between all on or all off. This is what I'm waiting for before I buy. Any ideas?

Installation was excellent, but disappointed with Generac's pre-delivery checks since critical small component was faulty and required several visits by our electrician and tests at our end until final diagnosis resolved. Generac will deliver and install this component within two weeks which is a good turn around, but we feel vulnerable to power outages until resolved. In addition there is some confusion over Generac warm up times - we are hoping for less than one minute in summer, but our installer figures up to four minutes.

Mike the gas man was especially helpful and I was told by the Smyrna Inspector that the gas work was really superb. Mike came out on 2 separate times after installation to show me how the unit worked. I really appreciate his hard work and dedication. Thanks again Mike for a job well done.
