Love our Standby Generator

The ease of installation and use is impressive. It runs its maintenance check on the scheduled time once a week and I check the status. Our power outages are frequent enough that we felt having one was beneficial than not. I’m thrilled each time it kicks on within seconds of the power going out.

Good value

This is my second generac unit. The new one is much better than the first. The steel case on the first rusted very quickly here in S. Florida. The battery charger on the new unit was a terrific addition but did require some new wiring that the first unit didn't need. So far no problems (in use for six months).

very good quality generator

We are very pleased with our purchase and the installation by our electrician. Fortunately we have not needed to use it yet. It does run every Sunday on time like clock work. It has a very nice appearance much nicer then our house a/c unit. We would definitely recommend this generator.

Generac is great!!

Our electricity was off for the first time since installing the Generac on Christmas morning, lasting for about six hours. For me personally, the Generac paid for itself that morning!!!! So many things to get done and family arriving. I was able to get everything done with ease due to the Generac. I felt so blessed!!

Works Great

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!

Best investment ever

I purchased my Generac and the installer that represented Generac was wonderful explained everything and was done in a timely fashion. The Generator was up and running and with in a few days I lost electric for 12 hours and the generator kicked in and we where lite up like a Christmas tree at night when our neighbors where in the dark. ( felt bad) since then we have lost power two more times (this is so un usual for us) since then. I have been telling everyone that will listen to me they have to get one. It has more than paid for it self since my husband is handicapped and must have electric. Thank you for a great product. Gerry

6551 buy / diy install first review

Pretty straight forward install. My actual costs were about half what a pro quoted not including chasing parts and my labor. Commissioning was straight forward also. Notable notes: Im not 100% satisfied on the auto start. The engine start takes longer than i like and it stumbles a bit. Plan to recheck gas service. Its also a bit louder than expected. From pre buy conversations with local dealers i dont expect much support either because i didnt give them the total sale. Consider that before you buy from a wholesaler.. I will review again after the first power loss.

Unbelievable project completed on time just wonderful

Unbelievable project completed on time just wonderful. I am an older woman who lives alone in the mountains of western North Carolina but I continue to work out of town . Since I am gone for days at a time I could not take a chance that I would come home to no electricity and broken pipes my Generac has been faithful from day one it is easy to look at I had it hooked up to propane to save some money and it has been working wonderfully I would never suggest anyone who lives alone and leaves their home for more than a few days to not have the wonderful power of Generac to keep things running smoothly should the power not return for a while thank you Generac and a special shout out to Doug Who was so patient with explaining all the directions for use of the Generac and for the installation is a one-of-a-kind southern gentleman and I cannot thank him enough . I love my Generac thank you

Peace of Mind

This permanently installed Generator replaced a portable gasoline powered one that required moving outside and connecting through a manual transfer switch. The portable worked fine for many years when we were younger, but now it is difficult for my wife to use it. The numbers of power outages here in Rural Pennsylvania are increasing each year so we installed the new 22kw Generac running on Natural Gas. Also, the new Generac has an automatic Transfer Switch which is really fantastic. I have recommended Generac to all my friends in my area. Great design and ease of installation make it the top choice in my book.

Nothing to review - installation was messed up

The installation was a fire and mechanical hazard. 1. Putting the garage door down ripped the wires down causing the door to get stuck. 2. The garage door spring cables rubbed on the power lines - creating a fire hazard. The installation is being redone. I may change my review after the problems are corrected.
