Very easy to operate

Just installed on 5/15/2018 and from the intitial call to the sales visit to the on time installation by Mark and his crew this has been an extremely pleasant experience! I can’t wait to lose power to see how well it works. It looks great and everyone has been very pleasant to deal with. We lost power for four days two weeks ago and I wish I would have started the process sooner than I did. Very happy.

Peace of mind - Hope to never use it

After several power outages, my wife and I decided to invest in a Generac whole home standby generator system. Our local installers did a great job in setting it up. Though we hope to never have to use this system (our weather patterns show we most likely will in the near future), just knowing that it is on automatic standby, brings great peace of mind to our family.

Model 7043 is online~

After a long process of considering my actual needs Vs my wishes I selected the #7043 with service disconnect & transfer switch. My gas meter is on the opposite side of my home with the electric meter on the opposite end. I placed the gen on the gas meter side and had my transfer switch mounted in the basement (wall) under the outside electric meter. Install was smooth with the most work running the electric and control wires from the generator to the transfer switch. Gas hook up was straight forward with a "T" inserted into my AC-250 gas meter and a pipe run to the generator. When everything was hooked up gen was test run in manual mode. This thing is a LOT quieter than I had imagined. Engine runs smooth. After a 5 minute test run it was shut down and put in automatic mode. The service disconnect switch was turned off and after about 10 seconds the gen started then the transfer switch did it job and fired the transfer switch to gen power. After a few minutes was turned the city power back on and the gen switched back , ran for a cool off cycle and shut off. Perfect ! The only glitch in everything was configuring the WIFI and trying to use the Generac WIFI activation app. The WIFI app never did work from the installer or my attempts to make it work. I ended up using an IP address for WIFI config (192.168.51.1) This worked on the 1st try. I have a multi band WIFI router and my generator liked the 2.4 Ghz radio band. After I got it connected I launched the Generac app and my generator and stats appeared on my phone. Generac also pushed new firmware (1.14.172) to my generator within minutes of getting connected. My install date ( today ) is 4/15/2022 and Generac has made some HUGE improvement to their equipment over the years. Looking at my neighbors house across the street they have an old Generac in the off yellow square cabinet. His is still in use after a decade of use but its REALLY loud and lower KW output than my new 22 KW unit and mine you can barely hear from across the house. When his runs across the street I hope it throws a rod so he buys a new and quieter unit.

Couldn't be happier

Even thou I have only had a few days but I know it will be worth it. I purchased the 22kw and my mother in-law purchased a 14kw a year ago and couldn't be happier. There are probably 50 of these Generac's in our neighbor hood. The dealer had in all installed in about 5 hours!

Highly Recommend

I live in Southern Ontario, Canada, where the winters can get chilly and snowstorms are frequent. With all the talk in the media ref massive Grid Outages, I decided to have this model installed. As I live alone, I have no problem powering my whole house, if required. I do have Natural Gas: Furnace, Hot Water tank, Fireplace and BBQ; the Genny also runs off of Natural Gas. The install team was friendly and very professional, and their work was neat and tidy. Although I have not had any outages yet, it does give me peace of mind...

Thrilled with our generator!

We're absolutely thrilled with the peace of mind that comes with a Generac generator. An ice storm left us without power last winter for seven days and shuttling between our home to check on pets and pipes. We're as ready as we can be for any future outages.

More than I expected

Didn't expect this unit to be able to run both A/C units plus the rest of the house, but it can as long as they both don't try to start at the same instant. More than I expected. I also like the mobile link as we are away a lot. Good to know the unit has exercised and that if there are any problems, the dealer gets an email and knows a repair is needed.

Genny Ready for Action

Installation was a 2-day affair as wiring and gas plumbing couldn't be completed on Day 1. Price reflected in literature has little bearing on total price, once add-ons are counted. Product appearance is acceptable to the neighborhood HOA rules, but the cover has a degree of concavity that tends to hold some rainwater. Otherwise looks and performance so far is excellent. Durability remains to be determined.

Standby generator

Living down south we deal with storms half the year. I was tired of pulling out a portable generator and having it not start much of the time. I had this installed and a week later we had a storm which knocked out the electric at 2 am. It was nice to hear my generator kick on and the hum from it put my right back to sleep. Best investment for my home.

Meets Expectations

Although I am waiting for the gas company to get the fuel lines ran, the installation came off without a hitch. Relaying on the Generac reputation, I am expecting it to run reliably for years to come. As an electrician that has installed several other brands, this was a easy installation. Thank You Generac for a no hassle purchase
