Product overview
Home standby generator that provides the automatic backup power you need to protect your home and family during a power outage. Comes with free mobile link, allowing you to monitor the status of your generator on a phone, tablet or computer from anywhere in the world. Connects to your existing LP or natural gas fuel supply, and starts within seconds of sensing power loss - automatically - and runs for as long as necessary until utility power returns. Choose from just enough power to cover essential circuits or whole house coverage with the 200A NEMA 3R smart switch. True Power Technology delivers best-in-class power quality with less than 5% total harmonic distortion for clean, smooth operation of sensitive electronics and appliances. Quiet-Test Self-Test Mode runs at a lower RPM for a five or twelve minute test, making generators significantly quieter than other brands while consuming less fuel. Evolution Controller features a multilingual LCD display that allows users to monitor battery status and track maintenance intervals to ensure your generator is always in top operating condition. Mobile link remote wireless monitoring allows you to monitor the status of your generator from anywhere in the world using a smartphone, tablet, or PC. Easily access information, such as the current operating status and maintenance alerts. Engineered and built in the U.S.A. Tough, durable all-aluminum enclosures feature RhinoCoat powder-coated finish to help make corrosion-resistant aluminum, ideal for all weather conditions. Features that simplify the process for installers include removable door panels, a base pad that requires minimal ground preparation, and more efficient wiring techniques that save time on installation. Innovative engine design and rigorous testing provide the most reliable generator possible. Generac's G-force engine is purpose-built and capable of handling the rigors of generator use, resulting in power that is more reliable and requires less maintenance than any competitive engine.
