Good Unit

This is my second Generac whole stand by generator. I bought in 2016 and the new one as it has the aluminum housing and it has 5K more power, even I really did not need the extra power. I bought the extended warranty. So far it works just fine – we have only one outage and that lasted about 6 hours. I live in the Houston area and the time we really need a generator are hurricane type events and those can keep the areas powerless for up to three weeks. Before I bought my current home, the neighbors reported to me with we had hurricane Ike in 2008, they were without power for over two weeks. As long a BIG tree does not fall on the unit, I am ready for the next one.

Excellent product at a great price.

Well made except for flimsy plastic door and frame covering circuit breakers. The electrician broke mine and a different electrician broke my son's identical model. It would be nice if the factory offered a model for cold states with the battery heater, oil heater, and synthetic oil installed. Overall nice appearance and very easy to setup. I would defintely recommend this unit to anyone looking for a generator.

Peace of mind

My wife and I purchased our Generac generator last July. We love the peace of mind we now have especially when we hear of bad weather coming, (a major storm nor Easter just hit our area) and we no longer need to get our portable generator out and run extension cords to prep for the storm. Highly recommended!

Access via remote updates should be standard!

I can only respond to the monthly start-ups and the comfort of having it in place for outages. I have not needed for any amount of time yet and can only hope it stands up to its first test under fire ;) The remote access / smart phone option should be standard equipment...its 2017..someelse will beat you to the punch and steal some of your business, you need to stay on top! Send one to my house and I'll be sure to spread the word :) RMS

This generator is great, i like it.

The price and operations of this generator is great (simple to test). I like it because when the wife needs oxygen no matter if the power is down she still is ok to run the oxygen concentrator. Thanks for a good product. I decided to buy one when our Co. bought one to use at our office.

Works great - No issues

Had the Generac 22KW air cooled generator installed in March after considerable market research. Picked Generac because it offered the largest, air-cooled wattage, automatic load shedding, and because of market share (over 70%), which guarantees repair parts and service availability in the future. To date, the generator has had no issues. Weekly automatic test runs have worked flawlessly. Only have experienced one short power outage since installation. The generator kicked on immediately and transferred the house load perfectly. Could not be happier right now.

This product gives great peace of mind.

We're about 6 months into ownership now, and have experienced 1 power outage. The machine performed flawlessly. We live in a rural area area where power is lost quite often due to storms and it's really comforting to know life is not interrupted because of that. That said, I wish to add the home surge protector was also a worthy investment. Thank you Generac.

This is a fine product and the installers were great.

We are happy to again have a full house generator at our new condo in New Hampshire. It provides the security we wanted. Leblanc' did an excellent installation and fully explained all its features. We have not yet needed it but I am sure it will operate flawlessly when we need it.

Satisfied with Product

I purchased my 22KW Generac generator in September 2016. So far we have not had any power outages, but can tell you that we’re very happy to know when that does happen, that my family will not be cold, will have hot water, lights, all the things we take for granted. Signed, Mitch

Excellent Decision to Purchase

Decision to purchase was made to accommodate (mostly) the electric wheel chair that my husband now requires. Our electric has since been off twice since the purchase for several hours each time, but the generator immediately took over and we hardly noticed. I don't know why we didn't make this purchase years ago.
