real world test

installed mine in January and has been in weekly test mode since. last week the high winds took down in power lines in Eastern NC. Was working in garage power went off, I waited 30 or so seconds and listened, Generac came on ran like it should for an hour, power returned shut it self off and I am a happy camper. Two things should be included hour meter and grounding lug from the factory. I had only a short run 25 feet. well worth the dollars spent, Hurricane season will be here quickly enough. thanks. Now running on 100lb cylinder, more to be added.

Excellent in every way !

Installation went very smooth, It works perfect ..Very happy with the product. The weekly test cycle works great . I shut off my main power... it kicks on, as its supposed to do. Have not had a power outage yet .. but that's ok, because that is what it is for... back up and peace of mind.

looking forward to the power going out

I just had a 7.5kw installed at my cottage on a pond. My neighbor said the power goes out frequently since it is half summer residential area. Go ahead bring on the outages!! I run my furnace, A/c, Water pump, Fridge, hotwater heater and a couple of outlets for the tv and internet. Thank you Generac

Waiting for a longer power outage

Backup generator has been installed for about 6 months so far. I like the security of having power available when it's needed. My wife thinks it just a white pimple in the yard. So far we've only had a 5 minute outage. Generator worked great! Not long enough to change my wife's mind yet!

This product is good and fits nicely at the side of the house

I ordered this product and was very happy with the arrival time it arrived on island after the order was placed. Clearance was very smooth and once my electrician installed and the company connected the LPG and all checks were performed everything was good to go. Fortunately there was a power failure and the generator cut in and had a good run. The once weekly test is also done automatically.

Basic Emergency Backup Power

After researching standby generators I purchased the Generac PowerPact. The generator was installed by a professional electrician and propane company. The total cost of the project was $7000 which included installation, permits, setting 325 gal. tank and propane. The price of the generator, compact design and service availability is what attracted me to make the purchase as an investment. I am disappointed in the 2 year warranty since other competitors offer up to 4-10 years. The bottom line is only time will tell if the generator performance and durability are as advertised.

Runs the Essentials in your Home

Had it 3 years, and No issues, whatsoever. Getting my Annual Prewinter Maintenance done in a week. Would like to find a way from Generac; to add an External 50Amp Nema Receptacle to the Exterior of the Generator ; so I can still Charge my Smart Electric Drive Cabriolet, when the Power goes off the Grid. Had a Rare 4 Hour Outage last week. Generac worked flawlessly.

Nice unit and runs very smooth

Got it hooked up today, runs great and is quiet, looking forward to having it when the power goes out. I wish I had bought a bigger unit, learn from my mistake and do you homework... how much to you need? Do your need a whole house unit? Can you get by with only 8 circuits? I wish I had purchased this a long time ago. If you're in the market for a generator I recommend a Generac.

Very Good for the Price

If you do not need a lot of bells and whistles, there are a lot of advantages for buying the smallest back up 7.5Kw system. 1. Cost less 2. Smaller engine uses less gas to run. 3. Takes up less space. 4. Cost less to install. 4. Not complicated to install. The only thing missing is it not having wifi accessory kit to upgrade in the future.

piece of mind

Had generator 5 years and works flawlessly. Power goes out and seconds later the generator roars to life. When you have well water it's a life saver when you lose power for a couple of days. We run 2 refrigerators,furnace,overhead garage door,well pumpand lights with no problem. For the money and automatic start can't be beat.
