The 17KW Residential Generator is the ideal option for your residence or small company, giving you protection and assurance that you can withstand any storm without losing vital power.

This 17KW Generator from the QuietConnect™ series of home standby generators is enhanced with features – like weather protective, sound insulated enclosures – for a best-in-class 65dB or lower noise, approximately the same volume as a normal conversation.

Features & Benefits

• Robust design 

The generator is designed to operate in cold weather with performance down to 0 °F (18 °C) out of the box. The extreme cold weather models can perform down to -40 °F (-40 °C) out of the box. It is tested and certified per the latest EPA, UL, and CSA standards. The generator meets NFPA 37 which allows it to be installed 18 inches from a building. It has powerful motor starting ability and can easily start and run a 5-ton A/C¹ under full pre-load. 

• Intelligent Load Management 

The generator can control up to 4 loads and continuously monitors how much power is required independently for each load. It then controls each load for maximum utilization of generator power by only restoring loads the generator has the capacity to run. 

• Flexible Exercise Modes

Exercise modes can be set for time, date, and frequency that suit the owner. Our patented ‘Crank only’ exercise mode allows the generator to crank the engine and run diagnostics without starting the engine. This reduces wear and tear on the engine, fuel costs, and further reduces the sound of an already quiet generator. 

• Remote Monitoring

Remote monitoring is built into every generator. Using a computer, tablet, or smartphone, an operator can monitor, change exercise modes, and manually run the generator remotely.
