A Smarter Backup Power Solution
The patented Symphony™ II power controls
provide a managed power solution that
gives you access to every powered item
in your house, just not at the same time.
By using power management modules,
appliances become prioritized and turn on
and off based on need and the electrical
load placed on your generator.
Now you can manage high demand
appliances with a smaller, more fuel
efficient and affordable generator.
Peace of Mind
Designed Around Your Protection
Thoroughly tested to meet rigorous
National Fire Protection Agency standards,
this is the only 17kW
1
/20kW
1
standby
generator with an all-steel enclosure
and all-steel base, so it can withstand
temperatures more than double that of
aluminum and far beyond that of plastic.
With an external, automatic gas shut-off
valve, low pressure regulator and the only
internal thermal protection system found
on any 20kW
1
standby generator in the
industry, we’ve raised the bar on protecting
your home and family.²
High-Performance Engines
Proven to deliver non-stop reliability, our
17kW¹ /20kW¹ standby generators are
powered by premium-grade Vanguard™
engines that are developed for tough
commercial applications.
Unmatched Warranty
The longest, most comprehensive warranty
in the industry. No one else offers a 5-year
limited warranty³ that includes both
parts and labor, so you can be assured
of our commitment to quality. And your
pocketbook.
Convenient Monitoring
Includes a wireless monitor for inside
your home, so you know your generator is
working without having to go outside.
Designed Around Your Life
Our Quietest Generator Yet
Featuring unique air-flow technology,
our 17kW¹ /20kW1 standby generator is
our quietest generator yet. And because
it is 50% quieter than many portable
generators, this is the best choice to keep
your neighbors happy.
Long-lasting Durability
Our enclosures are made from the same
rust-resistant, durable Galvanneal steel
and paint process that is used in the
automotive industry, resulting in years of
protection against chipping and abrasions.
Electronics-friendly
Our electronic governor provides
stable, consistent power for sensitive
electronics and today’s most advanced
appliancessensitive electronic equipment
from damage.
¹ These generators are rated in accordance with UL 2200 and CSA Standard C22.2 No. 100-04.
²Installations must strictly comply with all applicable codes, industry standards, laws and regulations. Running engines give off carbon
monoxide, an odorless, colorless, poison gas so it is important to keep exhaust gas away from any windows, doors, ventilation intakes
or crawl spaces. Carbon monoxide detectors must be installed and maintained in your home.

Fuel consumption rates are estimated based on normal operating conditions at ½ load. Generator operation may be greatly affected
by elevation and the cycling operation of multiple electrical appliances – fuel flow rates may vary depending on these factors.
