The Generac Guardian® 10kW Home Standby Generator Is A Reliable And Affordable Home Backup Power Solution

Nothing is more important than keeping your home safe and comfortable during a blackout. As the top-selling home standby generator brand, Generac’s Guardian Series delivers automatic backup power you need to protect your family when the lights go out.

The Generac Guardian® 10kW Aluminum Home Standby Generator is engineered for this critical task. It runs on your existing natural gas or propane supply and automatically starts within seconds of a power outage. This means your refrigerator, lights, heating/cooling, and other essential circuits stay on, giving you the peace of mind you deserve. In fact, this 10kW Guardian model provides essential circuit power protection for your home at roughly half the cost of a central air conditioning unit.

Imagine not having to scramble for flashlights or worrying about food spoiling. With the Generac 10kW standby generator, you get whole-house backup power for your critical appliances (even if you have to choose only the most important circuits), ensuring the necessities remain powered until utility power returns.

Installation is easy, and because it’s built on Generac’s proven G-Force engine, maintenance is minimal. Unlike portable generators, this system is permanently installed outdoors and kicks on automatically – so you don’t have to lift a finger when an outage strikes. In short, it gives you reliable backup power and true peace of mind.
