Installed 22kw unit in October 2016. We are away for several weeks during the winter and we were always fearful that a power outage would result in catastrophic damage to our home and business due to frozen pipes. We also have a sewer pump/grinder unit that only has a capacity of 100 gallons. If we lost power, we couldn't use water without fear of sewage backing up into our house.. My electrician recommended Generac over the other leading brand and reviews backed up his opinion. So we had it installed. It took about a week due to the additional installation of two propane tanks. To date it has given us peace of mind when we are away. The mobile link has worked great allowing us to check the status of the generator when we are out of state. We haven't had any power outages as of yet, but I'm sure one will happen sooner before later.

Shortly after our Generator was installed Hurricane Matthew swept up the coast of Florida. It came very close to Melbourne and knocked out power to a large portion of our community. We lost power in the middle of the night. The generator came on line and electrical power was returned in a matter of minutes. Many of our neighbors lost all the food in their refrigerator and were without power for 2 to 3 days. We had no disruption in our house. Our daughters family came to stay with us for 2 days as they lost power. Our generator worked great.

This is my second full house generator, our first was 5 years old when our house burned down and we lost the first one. The fire got so hot, it was the oddest thing, the case was intact but the motor and generator inside was a puddle. I travel a lot for work, we live in the country so if we have no power we have no water. Bought it for my wife, we had a snow storm this past year and lost power for 4 days, she ran like a champ

Pretty straight forward install. My actual costs were about half what a pro quoted not including chasing parts and my labor. Commissioning was straight forward also. Notable notes: Im not 100% satisfied on the auto start. The engine start takes longer than i like and it stumbles a bit. Plan to recheck gas service. Its also a bit louder than expected. From pre buy conversations with local dealers i dont expect much support either because i didnt give them the total sale. Consider that before you buy from a wholesaler.. I will review again after the first power loss.

I just purchased a 22kw generator by generac happy with it so far haven't had a chance for for it to kick on but at installation time it ran very well looks good I like the price very happy with it I would recommend it to any one wanting a home standby generator

The installation was a fire and mechanical hazard. 1. Putting the garage door down ripped the wires down causing the door to get stuck. 2. The garage door spring cables rubbed on the power lines - creating a fire hazard. The installation is being redone. I may change my review after the problems are corrected.

The unit has responded on one outage and worked just as it should. The power automatically came back on generator power and everything worked in the house. It only took a few seconds for it to come on and it cycled right off when power was restored from the grid.

I bough my generac for one purpose and it meets that need To keep my house going when all the power is out. So I do not get excited over the product but I do feel a greater sense of peace knowing I will not be without power. Test Cycles run, Diagnostics show good to go. What more does anyone need, then to know, No matter how bad the storm Your Fridge, ac, heat, and everything else will be there for you. I do not recommend anything to anybody. Everyone should make up their Own mind.

I know the generator runs weekly, but I have never heard it! It just sits quietly, waiting for the power to go out. Earlier this month we had a large storm, and lost power. Within a minute, the generator had started, and all I had to do was re-set the clock on the microwave. Now all the neighbors are being very friendly! This is probably the best addition I could have made to our house.

Adding this back up generator system to our retirement home gives of great piece of mind whether we are home or out of town. We know that it will keep our home powered up due to storm, outage or whatever the cause and our food, heat, cooling, and essential devices will have power. We are now older and this investment means we will have everything we need power wise no matter the situation. All automated and worry free.
