Tools and Hardware Reviews of Generac Guardian Series 5870 8,000 Watt Air-Cooled Liquid Propane/Natural Gas Powered Standby Generator With Transfer Switch (CARB Compliant)
Customer Review: False confidence
Summary: 1 Stars
I have the earlier model but I think the same warning applies. I have this generator hooked to vital circuits in my house. During a recent power outage, I noted some of my appliances making humming noises. I did not think a lot about it but found out afterwords that my DSL modum, my security system transformer and my electronic panels and a transformer to my HVAC system were fried. Coincidentally,I had a generac repairman coming out the next day to do regular maintenance. He found that the voltage regulator on the generac was out. Repairs for all of the electrical damage and to the generator are over $2000 dollars so far. Everyone considering a whole house generator must not rely on the voltage regulator on their unit to protect their home from generator surges. So, count on another 120-180 dollars from a good surge protector to protect your house from your faulty generator! This was advice not mentioned in the install book nor by my original electrician. Generac was notified and offered no help other than to say they have had no recall on the voltage regulators........live and learn!
