When you’re relying on your #generator for continuous power, whether as a result of a storm like #HurricaneBeryl or another extended power outage, there are maintenance steps to take to proactively avoid issues and extend its life and usefulness. ✔️ When a generator runs continuously for 24 hours, shutting it down for at least 30 minutes is essential. This allows the unit to rest, and you can check the oil levels and do a visual inspection. ✔️ Follow your generator’s specific procedure for shutting down to prevent damage or hazards. ✔️️ Be sure to check the oil levels every 24 hours and top off as needed.

I live in Sugarland Texas. Two years ago we got a 24 KW generator installed thinking that we wil only need it very occasionally and for very short durations. After hurricane Beryl we lost power for over three and a half days (85 hours) and our generator ran continuously giving air conditioning and all other needed services. It gave great comfort and peace of mind and we were able to help some of our friends and relatives by accommodating them for a good night’s sleep. We are so happy and satisfied with our decision to get this dependable equipment installed.
Interested in this product, and would like to know how to purchase it outside the States.
Well said!

2wPurchased a Generac 24 kw whole home generator post TX freeze. We live in Sugar Land, TX and ours ran just over 60 hrs with Hurricane Beryl before power came back on at 4PM CST today. We had zero issues and oil checks were a breeze. So many families in our community asked about the generators as the Houston heat and humidity was taking a toll. Thank you for an amazing product! Best home investment ever.
