<\/strong><br \/>\nSince 1959, Generac has been designing and manufacturing backup power generators for residential, commercial and industrial applications. We have grown to be the world\u2019s largest provider of residential standby generators, selling five times as many generators as all of our competitors combined. Generac\u2019s broad product line ranges in output from 800 watts to 9 megawatts, and are available through the industry\u2019s largest network of independent generator dealers, retailers and wholesalers. For more information on Generac and its extensive line of backup power products, visit <a href=\"http:\/\/generac.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.generac.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is an automatic standby generator? <\/strong><br \/>\nAn automatic standby generator is a back up electrical system that operates whether you are home or away. Within seconds of an outage, it automatically supplies power directly to your home\u2019s electrical circuit breaker box. After utility power returns, the generator shuts itself off and waits for the next outage. It operates on natural gas or liquid propane gas and sits outside just like a central air conditioning unit.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why should I buy an automatic standby generator instead of a portable generator? <\/strong><br \/>\nDuring a utility power outage, an automatic standby generator provides numerous advantages over a portable generator:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The American Red Cross recommends permanently installed standby generators as a safer way to provide backup power to a home than a portable generator.<\/li>\n<li>With an automatic standby generator properly installed outside, your home is protected from deadly carbon monoxide poisoning that is a much greater risk with portable generators.<\/li>\n<li>Running on the home\u2019s natural gas or LP fuel supply, it is less expensive to run than gasoline and does not need to be refilled.<\/li>\n<li>They start automatically within seconds of a power outage, and eliminate the need to haul a portable generator outside or run extension cords throughout your home.<\/li>\n<li>They provide protection 24\/7, whether you\u2019re home or away, and they turn themselves off when utility power returns, so there is no need to monitor the unit during an outage.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>How does the Generac OHVI\u00ae engine compare to air cooled engines used in other brands of standby generators? <\/strong><br \/>\nUnlike other engines, used in backup power generation, Generac OHVI engines are made specifically for generators. They are engineered to run for the long periods of time required during a severe power outage or on a job site, utilizing the same type of pressurized oil lubrication used to give automobile engines long and trouble-free lives.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How do I correctly size a generator for my home? <\/strong><br \/>\nThe most logical way to determine your needs is to envision your home without power. Some outages may be short in duration, while others could last for days or weeks.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What would your family miss during an outage? <\/strong><br \/>\nWith the broadest product line available, essential circuit coverage starts with the economically priced Generac CorePower\u2122 Series. Other systems are available to cover virtually any application:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong style=\"color: #666666;\">Essential Circuit Coverage<\/strong> \u2013 Generac takes the guesswork out of sizing by offering prepackaged Guardian Series generator systems. The generator is paired with a transfer switch containing a predetermined number of circuits based on the generator\u2019s kW power rating. Each circuit is directly connected to a matched circuit on the home\u2019s main circuit breaker panel, providing electricity to that specific appliance or area of the home. For example, ten circuits are supplied for the 8 kW generator. With this system, you could connect (1) lights and TV in the family room, (2) microwave and lights in the kitchen, (3) refrigerator, (4) power to the bathroom, (5) computer and home office, (6) garage door opener, (7) air conditioner, and (8) furnace.<\/li>\n<li><strong style=\"color: #666666;\">Managed Whole House Coverage<\/strong> \u2013 You can get more coverage with less generator, up to whole house coverage, by pairing a smaller generator with one of Generac\u2019s Nexus\u2122 load shedding switch options. This creates a managed power solution where non-essential circuits are shed when the generator approaches maximum capacity. They are cycled back on when essential circuits no longer require power, so all circuits receive power at different times.<\/li>\n<li><strong style=\"color: #666666;\">Complete Whole House Coverage<\/strong> \u2013 Easily cover every circuit in your home by pairing one of Generac\u2019s larger kW units and the proper transfer switch to provide full coverage. No circuit is ever left uncovered, so every appliance is available every minute.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.1 -
