New Home Construction – An Ideal Time to Install

Product Innovation Keeps You Ahead of the Competition
Many competing generators need to be installed five feet away from the home, placing them deep into the yard. If installed away from doors, windows and fresh air intakes, a Generac standby generator can be installed within 18 inches of the home, unless otherwise directed by local codes. Staying out of sight and out of mind—where it belongs. This is just one example of product innovation that make a Generac generator the #1 choice among homeowners and an easier sale for you.
