Unavailability of replacement parts is a big problem
I have a 50kw Generac generator installed in 2007, it has worked pretty well, however recently the alternator on the engine has failed. When I called service to get it fixed I am told that a replacement part is no longer available. They can’t fix it. So I’m left with a generator that is unusable. I can’t recommend Generac generators.

I love the new model for 2020
I read the other reviews before buying... Its not loud at all.
I just love this unit. This is their new model for 2020 and its handling my entire 10k sq/ft house with 4 HVAC units, pool, 100+ external lights, two dish washers, two washers and dryers, and its amazing.
We setup setup a few load shedding options but this monster handles it all! So happy I went with the 48KW. I worked with JBI in my area and they were top notch.
I owned another Generac generator for a previous house and been a Generac customer for over 8 years now. Absolutely love the customer services and the quality of the product.
Highly recommend this unit... and again... its not that loud.

Best contractors
We live out in the country in Virginia where our power can go down for days at a time several times a year. We have for years dealt with All Install who have serviced our prior Generac generator and when we decided to upgrade to power the entire house we turned to them. Eric and Carlin who own the company spent a lot of time reviewing our exact needs and provided several options. We ended up choosing the 48 which was their top recommendation. We were extremely impressed with All Install. The planning and communication was a pleasure and I highly recommend them if you are located in Central Virginia. The unit is very quiet(compared to our old one)and easily powers our whole house.We are very pleased.

Excellent Quiet Backup
This is an excellent, quiet backup generator. I particularly like the V-8 engine and the aluminum enclosure (which should avoid the rust problems that I have experienced with a previous steel-enclosed generator). I would suggest that the shut-off switch mounted outside the lockable controls makes tampering a little too easy. If an emergency shut-off is needed, it should be wired so as to be operable ONLY while the generator is running.

Response to questions were done on a timely manner, thanks. Your material said access to a Tech was 24/7. Not true
Great product, I’ve had a smaller unit for years
Was and is still dependable. Look forward to many years of safe and dependable service.

Love The Automated Features
Hasn't been asked to perform yet, but installing contractor has one and swears by its value and reliability. Just in case, I bought the 10 year extended warranty. Live in mountains and lose power regularly from ice storms. Feel much more secure now.

Great Home House Generator
This is my 4th Generac generator. They are perfect for what I wanted. They run the house during outages and have been reliable, efficient machines. Feel secure with these generators.

Very quiet for such a large generator
Very quiet for such a large generator. I do not like the extra kill switches they are too easy to bump and cause the machine to show a code or shut down. Changing the orifice from natural gas to propane is very difficult I had to make a special flat blade device to remove the orifice which meant I had to remove the whole internal regulator, this needs to be changed.
