As a natural gas utility worker, I have seen first hand the crippling impact that power outages can have during ice storms. I now have the peace of mind knowing that my family ( including a mental and physically disabled adult ) is in good hands when I can't be there.

I had a 22KW guardian installed with two 150 KW transfer switches. During the hurricane last year we lost power for 18 hours and the generator powered my entire house perfectly. It runs two 4 ton heat pumps and the house power without a problem. Great unit at a great price.

We bought the 22 kw generator after a couple of storms and a small hurricane left us without power for days, shortly after we had our Generac installed late in the afternoon we lost power the generator cranked within seconds and had full power restored, Great feeling and that night we had lost power for 4 hrs. We love our Generac generator. Donald

Very pleased with the product and service at this point. Has been installed for nearly two months, only run during scheduled test periods. All ratings are based on performance and service during this period. I have no reason to think things will change. G. Smith

My Genera was installed a couple of months ago. It's too early to give recommendations because I just don't have appropriate information to provide anything useful. That being said, so far, so good. It reliably does it's weekly test. But the reason we purchased a unit - power failure - has not yet occurred.

Again, my problem is with the electric company that installed it rather than the product itself. But unfortunately, I have not had the support that I would have requested. I.e. asking for a quote for the extended warranty never getting one if Generac can offer that to me now I would be receptive.

We installed a 22 KW machine as a backup for our entire house. Our home is served via an 8000V electric primary cable which is direct buried from the source to transformer. We are radial fed, which means there is no backup cable that can be used to provide power should the UG cable fail. This generator will put power back to our entire home while the Power Company repairs the cable. We live at the top of a bluff in NE Iowa, and should the cable fault, it would be hard to repair the cable in a short time. Haven't had an extended outage yet, but, there will be one and when it hits, that generator is there to perform. Love It!

This unit needs a wiring harness or a different location for the terminals. It is difficult to get the heavy wire into the limited space provided and the location of the terminals is not easy to reach. I have not had a power outage since installing so I am not sure how well it will work.

The day after we completed our installation and testing, the power went out due to high winds and storms, withing a few seconds of the power dropping the generator kicked in and we had power once again. The power was out for approximately 2-1/2 hours and when it came back on the generator shut down as expected and is ready for the next outage. Awesome to have such a reliable and efficient product to place peace of mind and a safe feeling up here in the Eastern Upper Peninsula of Michigan where the weather brings ice and snow this time of year. We added the cold weather kit and Mobile Link unit as well just to make sure all is ready.

The new generator came to the rescue almost immediately after installation. The power went out and the generator came on and we did not realize it right away because it runs so quietly. Then during the severe weather our power was out for several hours and we were the only family with lights and all the other amenities in our neighborhood. Wonderful!!!
