My unit has kicked in multiple times since our purchase, be it minutes are hours. There is a minimum loss of power from outage to generator transfer. When power restored, there is no "blink" to indicate house power back on. Once a week , as scheduled, it starts up to run a five minute test.

After 6 months of operation it appears this product is very well put together. It has never failed on any power outages or weekly exercises. I like the quietness of operation and the seamless transfer from utility power to emergency. The only problem that I have with this product is the fact that I cannot enter the length of exercise time. In the winter, I would prefer to exercise the run time longer than 10 minutes. I would prefer to run test exercise at least 20 minutes. As owner I should have the ability to control my own exercise time.

Within a month of installation of our Generac Home House Generator, our power went out. As promised, the generator kicked on within 30 seconds. Our living routine DID NOT CHANGE during this 8 hour outage. We ran the Washer, Dryer, and Dishwasher simultaneously, along with our big screen TV. Would never know we lost our regular source of power!

This is my second hold house I have purchased, both be Generac. My first purchased preformed well, was an easy to install with straightforward institutions. I wouldn't recommend most people to do that, only if you have skill set to do so. The new control center setup is great update along access panels that easy remove for installation. Thank you Generac making the best full house generation on market, Marwood

I thought about this purchase for a long time. While the monitoring options for this generator are not good and the heater option seems to over priced and not reliable according to others the generator is awesome and best bang for the buck. Please bring back the local remote monitoring option that has no monthly fee.

Shortly after our Generator was installed Hurricane Matthew swept up the coast of Florida. It came very close to Melbourne and knocked out power to a large portion of our community. We lost power in the middle of the night. The generator came on line and electrical power was returned in a matter of minutes. Many of our neighbors lost all the food in their refrigerator and were without power for 2 to 3 days. We had no disruption in our house. Our daughters family came to stay with us for 2 days as they lost power. Our generator worked great.

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.

Mine is a whole house generator connected to the house electric system. It is scheduled to exercise once a week then send me a text and email. It does so without fail. I haven't had to actually use it in a power outage yet, but I am confident it will perform as it should. The recommended installer did a great job.

I unpacked & set up my Generac on a concrete pad in the optimum location for NG & electrical hook. A connection layout was done by our provincial utility authority. Our electrical contractor had the electrical service connected, tested & inspected in a morning. Three weeks after installation an auto accident caused a 4 hour power interruption that proved the value of this whole house installation.

We already were in need of the use of our generator when our electric was off for a few hours. It immediately came on and kept our house warm and lighted. It is a relief to know how dependable it is when needed. It ran so smoothly I wasn't even sure the electric was still off.
