so pleased with my new generator

My generator was installed today by a great team, including an electrician.They worked very efficiently and explained all the features of this generator afterwards. I had it installed for my piece of mind. I hope I never lose power but, if I do, my entire house is covered and, the best thing, is that I never have to do a thing. It's all automatic!

Ran Great During Hurricane Sally 9/2020

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.

The automatic transfer switch is great.

We live in a small town farming community. We have had high winds, fire and snow storms that have disrupted our power. The power company is usually pretty prompt getting service back on. The longest we have been without power in the last couple of years is about 9 hours. My husband is now on fully time oxygen and relies on power to run his concentrator. The generator is a safety net but most of all peace of mind for my husband.

Its worth it

It's a nice unit and a true 14kw on either fuel source what I don't like is 5 minutes a week is not enough for exercise they should run at least 12 minutes and load exercise 4 times a year I can assure you they would have less warranty claims these things are built very well and need to exercise more than they are right now alot of people have been telling Generac this but they aren't listening to good

Generator has good encasement.

My new Generac generator was installed today. However, the propane tank will be underground, so they will return with a different tank and the job will be completed. I live 15 miles from the LA gulf coast and hurricanes really do a bad job on our electricity that causes outages for a week. That means you empty your fridge and throw it all out, no a/c, no lights, etc. Can't wait to put to use. .

No more flooding basement!

We have our basement trenched, along with 3 sump pumps. The last time our power went out, our battery backup pump ran until the battery exhausted itself. When we got home, I opened the basement door to about 5 inches of water. I fired up our portable generator and plugged in. All pumped out after 25 minutes. Works fine...BUT YOU HAVE TO BE HOME to do this. I researched whole house generators and GENERAC was the best. I now have my own. No more flooded basement plus I don't have to worry about it anymore!! I should have put one in several years ago. I'm a believer!.

Works like a champ!

Installed our 22kw NG whole home backup generator with transfer switch in July 2016. We were expected to take a direct hit from Hurricane Matthew here in Melbourne, Fl, but instead were spared. Nonetheless, the power went out around 2am and within ten seconds our Generac Generator fired up like a champ. So far it has performed flawlessly and we expect it to continue. We will shut it down as soon as conditions permit to check the oil, and will fire it back up soon after. Well worth the purchase and recommend this generator as part of your significant inclement weather must have.

Great Generator

I have only had this generator for 3 months but it has already worked flawlessly during a 90 minute power outage. I got the cold weather kit (Chicago winters) and the mobile link app which sends status updates to your cell phone/tablet/pc so you can check on status while you are away from home. Just make sure you hire a professional who has good reviews for installing these since there are some complexities. I also had the gas company install a larger meter since in the winter with furnaces running there would not be enough gas volume to power the generator and two furnaces simultaneously (just a phone call and $100 to gas company). Generator looks good and runs more quietly that I expected (about same level as a lawn mower). After incurring $20k in water damage from a recent storm when the sump backup battery ran out of power (18 hour outage) I thought this would be a good investment.

Just installed, so far so good.

I just had the unit installed. The electrician was outstanding. Very professional, clean and answered all our questions. The entire install went without any issues. This past Saturday the unit performed its first automatic self running maint run. During the installers test we shut off all the power and everything worked as explained. I hope this works during an actual power out emergency....Thank you so far for everything and peace of mind.

Thank you Generac and our electrician Rich from O.J.Mann Electric!! I would highly recommend!!!
