Easy to Use

After a horrible winter last year in Texas, we decided to be prepared before winter or the next emergency happened again. We had inquired with other friends and relatives and came up with this generator. One of our sons and many of our friends decided to purchase the same generator because we could run one of our a/c units to heat or have a/c in one side of the house and have the ability to use our lights and power 2 refrigerators. This generator can get us through any emergency!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Everything we need and more

I did extensive research on portable dual fuel generators as we live in the desert southwest and during monsoon storms lose power quite frequently at the hottest time of the year and need a dependable generator.
At first we thought about a whole house gen set until we talked with people that have them and have had nothing but problems and were considering purchasing portable units.
After much deliberation we settled on the Westinghouse 9500DF.
We already had a receptacle installed and the house wired for 50 amps with an interlock on the breaker panel.
Having a 5 ton AC we needed a high output generator. We decided to put a Micro Air soft start on the AC which dropped the inrush amps to 32. Having the AC, refrigerator and freezer running is not going to overload this generator and still allow extras to be run when needed.
We are going to get a separate generator for the well and garage and Westinghouse will be on our list to look at again.
We think the right decision has been made using a portable generator to power our home and making that generator a Westinghouse.
Simple to service and just run it once a month to exercise the systems and she'll be ready when we
need her.

Powerful Generator

A friend of mine bought this model after the last storm we had and recommended this model, so I bought one and now I'm prepared for the next storm if the power should go out. This model is great because you can choose gas or propane.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Took very little time to get this great machine up and running. A little louder than anticipated but clearly less intrusive than many others I have encountered. A great value and loaded with plenty of useful features.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought this in September in anticipating a stormy winter. I got a transfer switch installed in my home so all I have to do is plug it in! Works beautifully!
