What can a generator do for me?

Generac home backup generators can sense power outages, turn on automatically, and deliver backup power to your home in seconds, allowing you to remain grid-independent for as long as you need while you wait on your solar or utility power to return. Generac power generators refuel themselves using your existing natural gas or LP fuel supply, and start themselves when power goes out whether you’re home or away so you never have to go outside during inclement weather to get your power working.

Generac backup generators sit outside of your home just like a central air conditioner, and deliver power directly to your home’s electrical system, so you don’t have to run an extension cord through your window if you lose power. Generac generators also produce less noise than portable generators, and can be scaled up or down to provide energy for your entire house, or just for essential appliances you need to keep running until power returns.
