8kW Powerpoint and video
  • 5 Year Extended Warranty not included. Buy Now!
  • Battery not included. Purchase above.

Generac's Nexus Controller is the most comprehensive available. The dual line, tri-lingual LCD display allows for easy monitoring and management of generator functions.

Simple field conversion from natural gas to LP.

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

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

Sturdy, galvanneal steel enclosure with RhinoCoat™ finish for superior weather protection, modeled to withstand 150 mph winds.

External “At-a-Glance” indicator lights offer an easy way to tell generator status without opening the generator enclosure.

Added Sound Reduction with enclosures that are lined with sound reducing foam panels for further noise reduction. 

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

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 mounting pad is included, eliminating the need to pour a concrete base.

  Good Housekeeping Seal

Generac's Guardian Series standby generators have earned the Seal after review by the Good Housekeeping Research Institute.

shipping issues. March 14, 2013
Reviewer: Thomas Terchek from Warren, NJ United States  
I was very happy with the prompt service replacing my gen. damaged in transit. Old Dominion however stumbled through the process.  Delivery  was held up two days while they figured out they were returning one to AP electric, and delivering the other to me.

Repeat buyer and will continue to be! January 28, 2013
Reviewer: Greg Stewart from Morris, IL United States  
I can't express enough how much we like and rely on our Generac generators. We purchase two or three a year to install in clients homes and the only issue we ever have with them - is waiting for them to arrive! Excellent product, superbly made!!
