Rated 4 out of 5 by from Hoping to not need it much, but good peace of mind Buying this was my husband's choice and I think it will give us great peace of mind. The electrician couldn't finish the activation until I linked our new unit to the internet. My first phone conversation with Generac's representative was helpful but we discovered the generator won't work with a mesh WiFi system. I either had to buy an insert that would work or "dumb down" my WiFi system. So, we added an older, separate WiFi for our new generator, which is working well. Ours is a new construction and others may encounter a similar issue.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Disappointed, frustrated I am impressed and disappointed by your system for selling and installing generators. Right now I am disappointed and furious at the notion that after I have paid you more than $12,000 you tell me to install part of the system I was sold. I truly believe that the system should be complete when your team leaves my property.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Haven't needed it yet, but ... The generator surprised us the first time the weekly 10-minute automatic "exercise" mode turned on, but since then we hardly notice it. The box itself is not bad looking, and seems secure; I like that it locks shut. We've had no power outages (knock on wood), so we haven't really used it yet, but it does provide a peace of mind that we didn't have before.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Installation and testing Fairly easy to install with instructions and wiring diagrams. I only tested it once and it transferred over fine. It has exercised twice for 15 minutes. So far it has passed the tests fine. One thing, I don't know what king of oil to use in the future as it is not written in any of the manuals.
