Generac's Home Standby Generators provide the automatic backup power you need to protect your home and family during a power outage. Connected to your existing LP or natural gas fuel supply, it starts within seconds of sensing power loss - automatically - and runs for as long as necessary until utility power returns. Choose from just enough power to cover essential circuits or whole house coverage. This affordable automatic standby generator offers protection for about half the cost of central air conditioning. Long, best-in-class service intervals mean you spend less time on maintenance and more time enjoying the comfort that comes with owning a standby generator.
