For homeowners who need 13 kilowatts of automatic standby power, Generac's 13 kW is the only logical solution. Other manufacturers advertise their kW rating on LP vapor, and point out in the small print that the natural gas rating is 10% or 15% lower. Equipped with our OHVI® 992cc industrial grade engine, the Generac 13 kW generator produces a full 13 kilowatts of power on either LP vapor or natural gas. More than enough power to start a 4-ton* air conditioner (the most common size) with plenty of power left over for a host of key circuits. Why pay thousands more for a "15 kW" generator to get 13 kilowatts of power?
