No more portable
I purchased this generator because I live out in a very rural area of West Virginia. My power goes out about every other month for a few hours and sometimes days.
I purchased the generator last fall. I installed the generator with my father in a day. It was very simple to install. The directions were very clear and accurate.
Before I purchased this unit I used a 4500 watt portable. This got me through but it was not easy. When the power would go out I would have to go to the basement, drag out the portable, and hook it up. This would get a little old at 2:00 in the morning.
Now all I have to do is count to 30 and everything comes back on. The unit I purchased is a 14kw. This is not big enough to run my whole house but it does run all the necessary things.
I can run my master bedroom and bathroom, microwave, frig, pelletstove, electric oven, electric hotwater heater, livingroom and TV, propane furnace, and a few more lights.
When I first looked at buying a generator I got a little afraid of the prices, but now that I have the unit working it was worth every penny.
I have programed the unit to run every Sunday morning while I am home to make sure everything is working correctly.
I also was concerned about how much propane the unit would use, but as far as I can tell it is very easy on the propane.
The last thing I would like to mention about the purchase is how good the help at Electric Generators Direct is. I submitted a question about my unit and in less than 24hrs I had a response that was exactly what I needed.
I would recommend a Generac generator to anyone who is sick of the power going out.

Compact, powerful, & quick delivery
I just received my Generac. It was delivered on time and in one piece. The delivery man rolled it into my garage since I was not there and my wife had to accept delivery.
The only assembly required was to attached the 2 front wheels and the two fold down handles which was a snap.
After assembly I added 1 qt of oil, 5 gallons of gas and pulled twice on the rope starter and she fired right up.
Since I might be away when the power goes out I had my wife try to start the Generac and she too got it going after only 2 pulls.
I like the compactness of the unit, the amount of power generated for the price, and how quickly it was delivered.

My Dad is 91 years old. He bought one of these generators and had the Power Company wire for it. I keep up the maintenance on it.
It's an awesome generator, and works great.
If you plan for the probability of being out of power for an extended period, you need to plan for fuel. This unit has a 16 gallon fuel tank.
My only complaint is that this generator does not have an alternator to charge its own starting battery. I found this out when the battery went dead.
A plug-in trickle charger has solved this problem. The Generac call center response was excellent.

A great website
After the hurricanes 2004 in FL.(days and weeks without power) I bought a 15KW PTO drive generator to use with my tractor.
But, after a few years I realized the complicated procedure to obtain power by this method was not "WIFE friendly", so I purchased a 17 KW Generac Guardian generator 2 years ago from another company before I discovered Electric Generators Direct.
I have since purchased everything for my generator from them. From the 200 amp transfer switch to service kits and oil filters. I am not sure why the filter that comes with the service kit is a higher capacity filter than the 3 pack but I guess if you change the oil as required it doesn't matter.
The transfer switch was the best thing we did besides the generator. If you are not experienced do not attempt to install this. A licensed/certified electrician is required.
Prompt delivery,product quality and ease in ordering keeps me returning to this company for my generator needs. I'm sure they're just as good by phone but I have used the online service, and it's great!!!!!
