- Heating and cooling systems
- Lighting
- Appliances
- Television and radio
- Water heater
- Computer and internet
- Garage door opener

Generac is the #1 name in standby power. Since 1959, Generac has focused on power generation, offering more generator solutions than any other manufacturer, making it the number one choice in residential standby power for peace of mind and the power to live.
A chart shows weather-related outages from 2018-2020, with Strong Storms accounting for 58.1%, Snow/Ice Storms 13.8%, High Winds 13.5%, Hurricanes/Tropical Storms 11.4%, Planned Outages 2.4%, and Other 0.8%.
How a home standby generator works:
- Your power goes out due to storms, grid failure, or other causes.
- Your Generac generator detects the outage and automatically turns on within seconds.
- When utility power is restored, your Generac transfer switch senses this and tells the generator to turn off, switching your home back to utility power. The generator returns to standby mode.
Choose the right size home standby generator for your situation.
Sizing your generator according to your needs, rather than just your home's square footage, prevents overspending or inadequate coverage. Generac offers solutions for different needs:
LEVEL 1: ESSENTIAL CIRCUIT COVERAGE
This option covers only your most important circuits, such as lights, furnace, water heater, refrigerator/freezer, and sump pump, providing a simple and economical solution.
LEVEL 2: MANAGED WHOLE HOUSE
This option provides whole-house coverage through smart power management. It's ideal if you don't turn on every appliance simultaneously, using a smaller generator paired with a power-management switch to manage power requirements.
LEVEL 3: COMPLETE WHOLE HOUSE
Generac's full line of backup power generators includes larger units capable of covering every circuit in any size home for complete peace of mind, ensuring everything stays on during an outage.
Home Standby Generators
Never worry about losing power again. Generac generators turn on automatically in the event of any power loss to restore power to your home within seconds, protecting your family and property.
