Nice generator set

The generator is good, I do wish the generator and the transfer switch were painted the same color. I know its minor, but it bothers me. The gray color of the transfer switch blends in well with my house siding. I have my generator installed near my a/c units and they are all gray, but the generator itself stands out with its beige/tan color. I also with it could be a little more quiet and the sound proofing on the generator lid does'nt stay in place very well. Every time I open the top cover the sound proofing has fallen down.

Excellent performance but uses A LOT of oil

Had unit installed May 2018 so we would have A/C in the event of a hurricane related power outage similar to outage during Hurricane Irma in 2017 when we were 5 days without power. As of June 2022 annual service the unit had only 25.5 hrs on meter. So until September 28, 2022 when Hurricane Ian hit and we lost power we had no experience with extended run time. Owner's manual indicated need to check oil frequently as it might need oil added. I had assumed after June 2022 service the unit would have enough oil to run safely for a minimum of 24 hours without getting a low oil warning. Due to the rain and wind it was not possible check the oil and at 27 hrs (9/29/22) the unit stopped under low oil warning. I had only 2 quarts of the required oil. A check 12 hrs later indicated it had gone through a quart so I had to reduce load until I could get more oil on 9/30/22. I was not pleased that after 39 hr run time I had to severely reduce the load and go without A/C- the main reason I bought the unit for. The owner's manual NEEDS to indicate the potential amount the generator may use during 12 hr continuous usage so people have an appropriate amount of oil on hand. I had no idea the unit would use 2 quarts a day. In the future I will have at least 10 quarts of oil on hand. Other than this annoying lesson learned I am happy with the unit.

Peace of Mind! Thank you!

Thank you Generac. I installed the 22kw about two years ago after we lost power for a day. Hurricane Florence just devestated NC. We did not suffer any loses but we lost power. The generator came on immediately and ran for two days nonstop. I felt bad for the neighbors in the sweltering heat. My adult children all came and stayed with us and we were safe and happy with full a/c and everything powered on. We watched movies and weathered the storm easily. It was truly amazing. Thank you!!! Best investment I’ve ever made!!

It's here!

Moved to Florida last year and have been wanting to get a Generac installed, today my wish came true! She's in and ready to go. Found a great certified Geneac contractor on the web site. From estimate to install he was top notch. On time, fair pricing, a pleasure to work with. Now we feel safe should any storm come our way.

The generator works as advertised

We just finished the install and 2 days later lost power. Everything worked as advertised and we were pleased to have a working generator for the 2-3 hour period while our power was down. Haven't really read and learned about all of the features i.e. wifi yet but will shortly. The install went very well and we were pleased with the communication, completed work and clean up.

1 Stop Generator Shop

Great service - very professional. Jonny and Jared, service technicians, did a great job of installation. 1 Stop came very highly recommended and they met or exceeded the reviews. I would refer them to anyone looking for a back up generator. Baumie

Happy with install and product.

I am very happy with the installation labor used . Explained operation and expectations. Happy with operation of generator. It can handle whole house with 5 ton and 3 ton ac unit. Its a spend of money, but I'm happy with everything. Paid for extra 5 year warranty. Its a machine it will break down. The installers will be notified of improper operation immediately.

Generac is the #1 generator for home protection

After researching and comparing the many different generators we chose Generac because of its outstanding performance reviews from previous purchasers and information from our immediate circle of friends who have purchased Generac generators. they are the top of the line and made in America which is important to us.

New generator customer

My Generac generator was just installed last week in Mi. I lose power a lot and this 22k generator should be exactly what I need! The look of the generator is very very nice for a large item! Budget Electric and Generators installed it in hours, and the job turned out very nice for where my city made me place it!! They are an excellent company in Clinton Twp. Mi. So far, I am very pleased! Thank you for making a wonderful product!
