I live in rural Nova Scotia, Canada and we experience frequent power outages. I have it hooked into my panel via a 40 amp Generlink. This baby runs both fridges, the water and septic pumps as well as the hot water tank, water softener, lights and all the small appliances. I can also run the electric heat but only room by room.
Well designed generator with great features. Havent run yet. packaging was in great shape buy control panel was pushed in. bent the panel and panel mount brackets. Note! on of the 20 amp circuit breakers was damages and unusable. need to be replaced.
Just did a test run in prep for hurricane Nicole and ran perfect. Started up with first start button push. Big test will come Beginning Thursday as I anticipate a power outage that could last several days. Very happy so far.
Delivered today. I am impressed with the quality and solid build of this product. The framework is like what you find on a commercial heavy duty generator. The installation of the wheels and standoffs was relatively easy. (it is a heavy generator) The wiring and hose lines are neatly run and tied together to reduce movement. Also liked the "extras" such as tool kit, battery trickle charger and ability to disconnect the battery with a pull of a connector and a remote start key fob attached to the pull cord so you know you have one. Nice touches all around. Westinghouse has always been quality. Our Westinghouse Refrigerator, oven and dishwasher are one of the reasons we went with Westinghouse.
