Clean Power

What sold me on the WGen11500TFc was that it produces clean power, at less than 5% THD. That is on par with an inverter generator. It is very well made! I like that it comes with a battery charger / tender. The user manual (Rev 02) that is dated 11/10/23, has some errors in it, but not a big deal. The remote control is pre-programed from the factory, so you don't have to follow the programming instructions in the manual. Over all, I am super happy with this generator. The Westinghouse website pictures are out of date, so I included a few current photos (February 2025). Notice the engine case now has cooling fins and the wires are a bit more messy or cluttered.

Easy set up and great power

I bought the 9500 tri fuel for my elderly parents and it worked well for their needs. Decided to upgrade a bit because of my pool equipment I would like to run for a couple of hours during an outage. This generator performed well with the load. Very thankful for it and how easy it is to use.

RUNS EVERYTHING!

Bought this gen for whole-home standby power. Built a custom enclosure and did a semi-permanent install with an interlock kit on my panel and an inlet box to connect to my home. Ran proper wiring and plumbing for natural gas and gave it a shot. It runs everything in my 2000sq ft home. All lighting/120v receptacles, clothes dryer, 4-ton heat pump (w/hard start--no heat strips), 2-ton minisplit heatpump/ac in attached garage, microwave, etc. The only thing I've yet to try is to run my dryer and my hvac unit at the same time. On paper, that would overload the gen capacity so I didn't even try it. It does run one at a time just fine on natural gas. I'm very pleased with my purchase. The remote start feature makes it possible to bring my home up on gen power without ever having to go out in the weather.

Another great generator from Westinghouse

This is my second Westinghouse generator. We had to go bigger. Just like the first one, right out of the box it was a dream to set up, started on the first try, and has all of the features that we need. The original still works great after 5 years too!

Easy to use

I just got the generator and it was very easy to start. I used natural gas and it started right away. The noise level is not bad and even when I connected my portable AC, fridge and a large freezer the noise level remained the same. This is going to save my sanity this coming storm season.

Preparing for Hurricane Season

Just purchased and will be very happy that it is an electronic and remote start. Wanted a reasonably priced generator that will do the job. Just started to do our break in period. We'll have some peace of mind knowing that we are prepared with this one

WGen10500TFc

This was my first generator purchase and after exhausting research came to the conclusion this generator is very well priced for the options it comes with!! With Westinghouse dependability you cannot go wrong. Set up was simple. It powered my entire house and decibel level was surprisingly quiet. I couldn't be happier. Do yourself a favor and give yourself peace of mind with a Westinghouse generator!

wgen 11500tfc on natural gas

The Unit runs fine on Natural Gas after you close the spark plug gap down to 25 thousands ,but would not run at all set on 30 ------------the supplied hose is 25 feet long by 1/2" with brass flare fittings and has a female quick attached on one end --- the 4 oz (7"of water collum) house regulator seems to furnish enough supply but not sure yet if it starves out other gas fired appliances ----------- I would hope that Westinghouse will modify the manual to include the above and also the estimated CFM natural gas full load fuel draw --- get some strong help loading/unboxing this thing and putting the wheels on it as it is bad heavy until you get the wheels on it --- has large muffler and doesn't seem any louder than other smaller open frame generators to me ----BTW we have a open flame NG hot water heater in the garage and opted out on ever putting gasoline in this garage stored unit not to mention the stale fuel issues between usages but the 25% power loss on NG is real and requires a bigger unit to begin with

Powerful generator!!

As soon I received I started assembling and given a try to start... Run at first try! Next was to try hooking up to a outdoor 50 amp inlet and see how powerful will be. Run the entire house, including central ac, fridge, lights, tv's, everything in the house.

Greatest Gift on Earth

This is the greatest investment me and my family could have ever gotten. I'm really impressed of the performance of this generator from Westinghouse. We've been exploring the features which are many. Electric start , quick connects on the battery, Dual fuel, remote start and stop, fuel gauge, led information and hours, metal gas tank plus more. To sum it all up we are extremely happy with our purchase and would highly recommend.
