Great purchase!!

If you’ve been thinking about purchasing a Generac for your home, I would highly recommend it! The first time we lost power, I knew then, that my families comfort was worth every penny that my Generac cost! We still had satellite service and internet! Heat, hot water.......

It was worth the wait.

We finally had our Generac automatic standby generator installed 1/20/2023. Supply chain issues (every company we quoted also had some delays) and our gas companies meter upgrade took additional time but the big day came and we are delighted. Our dealer only does Generac installs and servicing and it was quite a sight to watch them work. Anyway, my wife and I (and our dealer) have the My Link app on our phones, making it very easy to check the units status, history, notifications, etc. Also, this product was NOT made in China but right here in Wisconsin. Great job Generac!

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!

Works as Advertised, Smooth Transition to Backup Power

Like many, we just installed it to back up the whole house. The ATS works cleanly and efficiently. There is a couple second delay to engage when power goes out just as expected. This unit is 100 amp output and keeps up with most of our home's 3000 sq.ft. 2 AC units and electric tankless hot water. No one should ask that much of it. But we do and the only gotcha in our setup so far is the hot water heater drawing over 100 amps. (the generator protection mechanism engages properly shutting it down, no distress to it or the house, resetting is easy, which is a plus during a black out) So in backup mode, we have to kill one of the 3 40 amp breakers to the hot water heater. We are going to get the WiFi enabled smart breakers so we don't over tax the backup generator. But I am impressed that this little guy does exactly what it is designed to do, easy to use, and pray its longevity is as impressive.

Installed!

We had it installed on Jan 20, 2021...and of course, we haven't had an outage yet. Every Monday at Noon, it exercise's itself and I noticed it didn't really start on the first try, it stumbled. On the second try it would start. I contacted my dealer and they checked it out to find that the fuel pin gasket was twisted and the fuel regulator/diaphragm unit needed to be replaced. They did it on the spot and its been working fine ever since. Must have been a factory issue. Was very happy with the dealers response.

Peace of Mind!

Our home Generac Generator evaluation, selection, & installation process was outstanding - from start to finish. Our Generac dealer provided all relevant product information on sizing, installation, & customer operation of our new generator. Installation & operation was completed in one day. The 26KW Generac generator will now power our entire Texas home. With the Texas power grid being subject to possible unexpected power outages, the Generac generator provides a great comfort knowing we will have backup power in the event of an unplanned power interruption. A Generac Generator is a great option for proving power during unpredictable commercial power outages.

Great product and installation

Our installer was Lawrence Levy (A Wiring Man) and he did a very professional and high-quality job. He integrated the equipment with our existing wiring and panels and fixed anticipated future problems. It was all done and tested in 1 day. He answered all our questions and is quite a personable guy. The gear all has a clean look and looks like it came with house. We installed the Generac app and it works well. I especially like the regular automatic maintenance testing. We are quite happy and now do not have to worry about highly likely multiple summer blackouts.

Top quality and price

After getting quotes from various whole house generator brands, the choice was obvious! Generac provides the BEST generator at the BEST price. Therefore obviously the BEST VALUE. I read thru every estimate and warranty information; Generac won hands down!

Awesome Investment!

I've been reviewing and researching whole home generators for years and have always came back to Generac's 70432 22kw. The reviews for this model are outstanding everywhere it is sold. Finally, I bought one and had it installed a month ago and have used it 3 times in 1 month! Absolutely was perfect! I have a 2 story 2200 sq ft home and everything runs with this baby. Comes on seconds after power failure. Best investment of my life. Should have gotten this little love years ago. Thank You Generac for making such a great machine!
