WGen14500 Dual fuel generator.

I bought the WGen14500 Dual fuel generator a month ago. I had a transfer switch professional put on my house. My electrician and I set up and tested the generator with propane. I was very impressed. Very well many and extremely user friendly and well designed.

It's a Beast

This generator is all that one could want in a generator. It's a Tri-fuel, giving one many options. It comes with the hoses to run it off propane or natural gas. Well made, with many ports for plugs. The 50 amps is plenty to run a house during power outages. It's easy to put together. There's no way it can be lifted, but the wheels make it fairly easy to mover around on level surfaces. The price point is good. It came with the battery fully charged. Well made and a solid generator. If you plan on moving a generator around a lot, this one may be too big, but if you're looking to keep it in the garage/shed for emergencies, than this would be a great generator to have.

WGen14500TFc Tri-fuel

After learning about portable generators, my son, his father-in-law, and I all three independently settled on this model portable over other portables and over whole house. It was easy to get an electrician to put in the necessary, electrical plug, and the electrical panel and to get a plumber to ensure the right piping and flow of natural gas over to the location. This is bringing me great peace of mind as we enter hurricane season.

Just received and set up

We received red this generator about a week ago The assembly was straight forward with no difficulties. The unit fired right up on a 20lb propane tank. Only tested a drop light so far to confirm there is an output. The generator is loud but not near what I was expecting. We are getting larger tanks installed and will complete the break in at that time.

WGen14500TFc generator

I bought the Wgen14500TFc for all the features it comes with such as oil filter, oil cooler, low THD and remote start. It also has all the hoses and connections for natural gas and propane. I will be installing a Easystart on our 5 ton ac as we also have to run a well pump and a septic pump. For as heavy as it is it is still easy to move around and is well built. Ready for the next hurricane now.

Power For A Stormy Day (or week)

Just received the generator yesterday and uncrated it. All the bells and whistles were there and it was packed very well for shipping. I will be running it using natural gas for fuel and I'm having a gas hookup with quick disconnect connectors and a electrical lockout switch installed Saturday. The impetus for me to purchase this particular generator was my neighbor just recently purchasing the same model (Wgen14500 Tfc). He has three refrigerators, two A/C units plus a window A/C, 6 TV's and two microwaves which he all ran simultaneously. Only after he started the second microwave did the 50 amp breaker finally open on the generator. Good enough for me!

Great power and features

I bought this generator over a year ago, and didn't run it until about two weeks ago. I mostly use it to operate a Hobart 250-volt Mig welding machine. I use the propane feature, which supplies sufficient current to operate without hesitation. I really, really like this generator.

Runs my whole house!

I'll be ready for the next extended power outage with the WGen14500tfc! I piped it up to natural gas and it started on the first attempt. After the 5-hour break-in period, I tested it to see if it would run my entire house and it did easily. This includes my 5-ton central A/C (with soft start), but I didn't run my electric oven or dryer, which I wouldn't do in a power outage anyway. Very happy with the purchase!

Solid gen with lots of features

With a capacity of 14.5 kW, it can comfortably supply power to essential household appliances, HVAC systems, and even several heavy-duty loads simultaneously. I am confident this gen will provide ample power during outages. I have only ran it on gasoline so far and it has been very efficient.
