What is AC shedding?
Harry 
from Florida 
March 08, 2019
Answer
AC shedding means the transfer switch can manage up to 4 HVAC (a/c) loads without the need for additional equipment. You and your electrician will decide what order you will need to prioritize your central air units. It will then monitor the load on the generator and determine if there is enough power to allow them to start in order of priority. Load shedding is the same concept; however, this will only work with 240-volt appliances and will require additional modules.

Can you please tell me how many BTU's this unit would consume?
John 
from New York 
August 23, 2018
Answer
When operating on natural gas, the unit consumes 218,000 BTU's per hour on a 50% load (8000 watts) & 309,000 BTU's on 100% load (16,000 watts).
+−
Does oil come with the generator?
Phil 
from Pennsylvania 
July 23, 2018
Answer
The standby units will come with oil in them already, but it is still advised to check the level prior to starting the unit.
+−
How often will I need to adjust the valves?
Erick 
from Florida 
July 09, 2018
Answer
The Kohler 14kW and 20kW units have hydraulic lifters so there is no need to adjust them.
+−
What gallon size propane tank would I need to fuel this generator?
Talking Head Productions Inc. 
from Louisiana 
June 24, 2018
Answer
The minimum propane tank size according to Generac is 250 gallons and may need to be larger if you want the generator to run longer than 2-3 days.
