Living in the country we depend on electrical energy for our water well pump and sanitary system as well as all household applications. The Generac standby generator gives us peace of mind that we will have running water as well as lights during a utility outage.

We do home improvements and have been involved with a few generator installations over the years. Generac has proven itself to me many times as being the most reliable, quietest and economical generator on the market. My wife and I have wanted one for years and now that we are approaching retirement, we feel it's time for ours. We don't get many power outages, it's mainly for peace of mind.

Recently had Generac Gaurdian series generator installed to replace older generator. The purchase and installation process was an outstanding experience.Karriker Electrical Service (Salisbury, NC) were tremendous to work with. They were knowledgeable, came when they said they would and did what they said they would do.(unusual for our community!). The removal of the old system and installation of the new went without a hitch. I would highly recommend Karrikers! That being said, dealing with the Generac Company has been less than satisfying. There have been ten minute waits while trying to reach a person on the phone. The process for applying for the ten year warranty would not work for me. Mobilelink has not worked for more than 48 hours at a time (even with a 60-70% indicated wi-fi signal). I can only hope the generator is more reliable than the company has been so far.

I'm very satisfied with the product. The installation process was okay - my lawn is still a mess. Additionally, the company (ARK Generator) has yet (waiting for two months) to provide documentation on the 10 Year Warranty and assist me in setting up MobilLink.

In two year's time, other than the monthly tests, our generator had been running for less than two days, total- then Hurricane Sally hit our area. 200,000 homes were without power. Hundreds of telephone/electrical poles were snapped like matchsticks. Thanks to our Generac Guardian, our home had power for 70+ hours. It easily powered our 2,000 Sq. ft. home. Two of our neighbors bought Guardian 22KW generators, just like ours, after we recommended that model, so there were three Generac Guardian 22KW generators, less than 1/4 mile apart, that ran 70+ hours with absolutely no problems. It immediately shut down when the power grid returned. We could hear the gasoline generators of a few neighbors still running hours after our electricity returned as it was still daylight.

Contracted with PACE Electrical for the installation of my Generac whole house generator. They were a pleasure to work with. They seamlessly coordinated the gas supplier and gas service installer and their staff arrived on time. The installers from PACE were efficient, professional, neat, and took the time to answer all my questions during the installation process. My Generac started the first time and, after set, up did it’s own test run flawlessly. I would unconditionally recommend PACE for anyone in the DE/PA/MD region. I trust my Generac generator will live up to its reputation.

My 22K Guardian was installed just last week. I have already had a chance to witness it's seamless functioning as we had a brief power outage yesterday morning! Incredible! The unit worked exactly as advertised and demonstrated at installation. This Generac is going to provide a wonderful peace of mind as hurricane season rears its ugly head! I must put a plug in for 1Stop Generator shop. 110% satisfied with this company. Every individual from sales, to installation, to billing, has been exceedingly friendly and helpful. A first class operation all the way.

Installed in one day, February 2009. Has been very reliable ever since. Programmed to "exercise" for 12 minutes every week and has done so. Maintenance is only oil & filter changes and spark plugs every two years. Have only had to replace the trickle charge module after 9 years of operation. Cost to purchase and install is worth the peace of mind it brings. This units powers approximately 80% of our whole home.

Love this 22KW Generator, generator dealer suggested a 16kw with control modules but I decided to go with the 22KW(go big or go home), installation was a breeze, now I just have to wait until our next power failure... very easy to use, just wish they came in a darker color to be able to match the house(wife suggestion), as long as it does its job, very pleased...thank you Generac.

This is my second Generac. My first was in the Northeast and was a 20KW, but in Florida I upgraded to the 22KW due to large A/C requirement. The generator is surprisingly quiet. I only know its running because it sends me a text! This is a great feature because even when I travel I now know if my house lost power. I compared price and features to the biggest competitor and the Generac was 20% cheaper both in the Northeast and in Florida. The unit also looks great and my neighbors said they had to go outside after a power outage to know it was running because its so quiet.
