So far so good

I got this generator when I bought my house. The previous had purchased but never hooked it up. After being without power for 9 hours at 0 degree temps I decided to finally bite the bullet and it was one of the best things I've ever done. Now I don't have to worry about my freezers while I'm gone and will have heat when it's 0 degrees. I also have a well so no power means no water. This unit sat untouched for 2 years. After I hooked up the gas piping and put in a battery it fired right up.

Power Up Rest Easy

This is a great "peace of mind". The power went in my area once for four days and I wished I got this generator back then. This unit powers the whole house with no effort. Runs on natural gas and is very quiet. The person who installed it is fantastic, he said he will service it once a year just to make sure its running the right way. I tried it out for a week, just running the generator and I was very happy with the performance. I have a lot of equipment for the physically challenged and really need all electrical sources to run properly. I don't want to be stuck with out power.

GOOD

I truly can not totally review. The unit was installed on time and in a very professional manner. It tests itself every Monday and there are no issues. I have not had a poer outage, since the installation and would have no way to reate the unit until I have one. THANKS RICK

this product serves all my needs

Sort of funny reviewing a product I may never use. But the reason I purchased it was my wife"s needs. She's not the healthiest so it's a real good feeling to have the power source ,when needed, for her machines. Not written for a pity party just being honest. I know it works when needed do to a regular power failure, 10 seconds into it ,my house is fully powered. I really don't want to see a long term outage but feel It'll be OK if and when it does happen.

Priceless...

When we lose power here it's generally for an extended period of time (several hours). After dealing with a portable generator for years, we finally purchased a Generac 22kw automatic generator. Now there's no wheeling the portable out, filling it with gas, hooking it up and hoping it will crank, most often doing all the above in lousy weather. The very day the installation was completed we lost power for 10 hours. The Generac came on during that time and ran flawlessly. On top of that it was so much quieter than the old portable that it could barely be heard. We love it. I only wish we had made the commitment to purchase years ago. I highly recommend the Generac.

great product

Several of my friends have one and has never let them down. It has now given me peace of mind when I leave the house as I have a sump pump in the basement and with the new building code,, all the water goes there. They only drawback is the installation cost. Can't see how it cost almost as much as the generator and it takes them only 3 hours to install.

Product brings confidence to 100 year old Mom

The generator is top quality and is allowing my hundred year old mother to remain in her home with only part time caregiver service. She would be too nervous about power outages to live alone without it. We have confidence in your product. A neighbor has agreed to shovel around the generator if there is more than 8 inches of snow so it can work. It is worth the expense. Installation by one of your certified installers is important too.

Best Decision!

I have wanted this for years. Recently moved to a wooded rural lake home and didn't want to risk losing power. Not there full time and didn't want to lose frozen food if the power should be interrupted. I have also been without power due to ice storms in the winter. No longer an issue. Peace of mind is worth the cost to me.

WORKS FLAWLESSLY

Our power has shut off several times since the installation of our generator and it has kicked on within seconds. I purchased the generac generator because of my 3 year old daughter, and the investment has proven to be smart. Thanks for a great product.

Happy with my purchase!

I have had my whole house generator installed for about 4 months now. I installed it myself and it took some time. I would not recommend installing it yourself unless you have quite a bit of electrical knowledge and hands on experience. So far we haven't had an electrical outage so other than the scheduled automated test cycles it hasn't seen much action. The twin cylinder engine is a beast and a lot more quiet than my portable generator.
