Meet the Generac 22kW Next Generation Generator
The Generac 7260 (22kW) standby generator is an excellent option for homeowners who want serious whole-home backup power, especially for larger homes or households with heavier electrical demands (multiple refrigerators, well pumps, sump pumps, electric cooking, larger HVAC loads, etc.).

…control (snow, town permits, technical problem with the actual generator), but I was so pleased with the professionalism of everyone I dealt with Glen, Karen, Jennifer, Chris and all the technicians who worked to install our generator. Early this morning I experienced our first extended loss of power due to a large tree falling in the area. After a few seconds in the dark and some supernatural sounds, our generator powered right up. Nine hours later power is still out but our generator is going strong. Definitely one of the best purchases we've made!
