Peace of mind in Northern California

The threat of forest fires in rural California has increased dramatically to the point that the local electric utility now has a policy of interrupting power during windy/weather conditions. The outages could last hours to days. A standby generator eliminates the need to move the family/pets to a hotel or friends as well as preserving refrigerated food and other perishables. We chose Generac based on online reviews, record of reliability, features, and appearance. We were not disappointed. The dealer did an awesome job with the installation and training us in the operation of the unit. Would definitely recommend.

Sleek and sturdy unit with emphasis on feature and piece of mind

After living thru hurricane Sandy, this generator will provide a sense of security knowing that heat /AC Will not be lost and food will not go bad in the fridge and freezer. Lights and hot water will be there even when the rest of the neighborhood is dark. It runs a weekly self test and is monitored remotely. Relax knowing that your entire home will be powered by this unit.

Sleek unit , excellent design.

The first time I lost power was about 6:15 am and the neighbors across the street were getting ready for work and were taking a shower but power went out and my 26 year old son went to the light light panel in the hallway of our house and started flashing the lights . The neighbors saw and commented about the lights flashing on in a power outage. Also sold my father- in -law on the product and he purchased one.

Factory Assembly Issues

My Guardian 22 KW Standby Generator is deficient in the manufacturing process and Quality Control Inspection and acceptance testing. After installation by a Licensed Electrical and Generac approved installer upon initial startup and testing process the electrical Contractor was unable to get the unit to operate properly. Engine started within seconds of turning on however during the testing process numerous issues occurred resulting in a lengthy run times consuming LP fuel due to numerous electrical connections not being able to remain in place (spade type fitting being the biggest issue resulting in repeated protective covering having to be removed and again excessive time spent as well as excessive fuel burn to identify the issue and multiple locations. Recommend that these spade connections be crimped a bit more to preclude the inadvertent disconnection during shipping and or startup and test in place situations. Other than this inconvenience all went well after corrective action taken and the unit work very well. Just hoping that we will never have to use it...But it is there in case.

One less thing to worry about

The population in our city is out growing the infrastructure for years now. Just a matter of time before regular rolling brown outs hit, and I have medical equipement that needs to be powered. Had a small battery back up, but it would only power one or two units and only for a couple of hours. I have no worries now.

Generator review

Just had it installed today. Installation went very well, employees were prompt, professional, polite and very pleasant to work with. Explanation of overall features and how the generator works very detailed, yet easy to understand. Will be happy to provide further review after we have had the unit for 1 year.

Best Home Investment

I highly recommend the 22kw Generac Generator. We experience numerous power outages each year and I love having the sense of security knowing that whether we are home during the start of the power outage or not my basement won’t be flooding from the sump pump not running and my whole house will continue to function within 12 seconds without having to do anything. Thank you Generac!

Whole house Generac for peace of mind

Contracted with PACE Electrical for the installation of my Generac whole house generator. They were a pleasure to work with. They seamlessly coordinated the gas supplier and gas service installer and their staff arrived on time. The installers from PACE were efficient, professional, neat, and took the time to answer all my questions during the installation process. My Generac started the first time and, after set, up did it’s own test run flawlessly. I would unconditionally recommend PACE for anyone in the DE/PA/MD region. I trust my Generac generator will live up to its reputation.

Thankful for my Stand y Generator

Chief’s Electrical Plus did a great job with the installation in spite of our county’s issues with the installation process. He/they did a good job with the install and it looks amazing. We highly recommend this company. Mr Love communicated with us every step of the way so we were kept informed during the process. We have had it work while power was out and we’re cozy during the cold weather!

Waited for the 22KW --Was Worth It!

The 22KW provided the "extra" power headroom I was looking for. With both a 5Ton A/C and a large media room, the extra output was welcome. The bonus with this unit is that, while costing only a few dollars more, it uses less NG or LP fuel then either the Generac 16 or 20KW units. Living in the Midwest, the Cold Start package was a welcome addition. Overall, a win-win solution.
