The DuroMax XP16000iHT Delivers 16,000 Peak Watts of Clean Tri-Fuel Inverter Power
The DuroMax XP16000iHT Tri-Fuel Portable Inverter Generator combines whole home output, clean inverter power and three fuel options. Its 744cc DuroMax engine produces 13,000 running and 16,000 peak watts on gasoline, 12,350 running and 15,200 peak watts on propane and 11,200 running and 13,800 peak watts on natural gas.
Total harmonic distortion stays under 3%, and the generator runs at 66.9 dB at 25% load. Two 50A outlets, remote start, CO Alert shutdown, quick-connect fuel fittings and a 5-year DuroMax warranty make it one of the most complete portable backup generators DuroMax offers.


DuroMax XP16000iHT Features
Tri Fuel Technology
Run on gasoline, propane or natural gas and change fuels in seconds from the front-facing interface. A 15-foot, 3/4-inch natural gas hose and a 4-foot propane hose with regulator are included, with quick-connect fittings. Natural gas operation requires 6.0 to 9.0 inches of water column and up to 295,000 BTU at full load.
Quiet, Clean Sine Wave Power
Total harmonic distortion under 3% protects computers, smart appliances and HVAC controls. Demand-based variable idle keeps noise at 66.9 dB at 25% load.
Two 50 Amp Outlets
Two 14-50R outlets let you use the generator's full output with an interlock or transfer switch. Four 5-20R GFCI outlets cover everyday loads.
Remote Start
Start the generator from inside your home with the included remote control, or use the push button on the digital control center.
CO Alert Shutoff
A built-in sensor shuts the generator off automatically when carbon monoxide is detected at unsafe levels.
AGM Battery and Battery Tender
The AGM battery offers longer life and better cold-weather performance, and the included battery tender keeps it charged in storage.
Parallel Capability
Pair it with another compatible DuroMax inverter (sold separately) for even more power.
Real-World Applications
Whole home backup. Through an interlock or transfer switch, run most circuits, including central air in many homes.
Long outages on natural gas. Connected to a gas line, run without refueling.
Homes with sensitive electronics. Clean power protects computers, routers and appliance control boards.
Large RVs. The 14-50R outlets connect to 50A RV service.
How It Compares to Common Alternatives
Versus the DuroMax XP16000iH. The iH has the same gasoline and propane output without natural gas operation.
Versus the DuroMax XP15000HXT. The open-frame XP15000HXT costs less, but the XP16000iHT runs quieter with cleaner power and more output.
Versus home standby generators. It costs less, can run on natural gas and moves where you need it, but it is not permanently installed.
Is the XP16000iHT the Right Fit
-
California. It is EPA certified but not CARB certified, so it is not available for sale in California.
-
Size. At 368 lbs dry and 38.3 x 30.8 x 34.4 inches, plan for storage space and help when moving it.
-
No recoil start. It relies on electric and remote start, so keep the battery on the included tender.
-
Connections. Use a licensed electrician for the interlock or transfer switch and a qualified gas professional for natural gas.
This may be a good fit if
- You want whole home backup with clean inverter power
- You have a natural gas line and want long runtimes
- You want two 50A outlets and remote start
