Product Features



Provides essential circuit power protection for your home, ensuring the necessities remain powered during an outage or up to whole house coverage when paired with one of Generac’s load shedding devices. Capable of backing up a five ton air conditioner. 


Easiest installation on the market and an excellent value when purchased pre-packaged with a pre-wired transfer switch, or customize your system by purchasing the generator and transfer switch separately. Composite pad is included, eliminating the need to pour a concrete base.

Generac’s OHVI® engine was designed specifically for generators. It out performs competitive generator engines with an engine life that is three to four times longer and has a significantly longer period between scheduled maintenance checkups.

Choose from premium all-weather aluminum or sturdy galvanneal steel enclosures for superior protection against the elements.

TruePower™ Technology provides clean, smooth operation of sensitive electronics and appliances.

Quiet-Test™ Mode for a weekly self-test that runs quieter than other brands.

Electronic Controller and user-friendly, trilingual LCD display and controls for programmable diagnostics and information at-a-glance. Sophisticated codes alert you to generator status at all times.

External GFCI Outlet safely provides greater external usability during a power outage.

Hour Meter monitors run time, providing information to determine maintenance intervals.
