My sister and cousin purchased one. It works great but if it breaks, you better hope the power doesn't go out soon because they are slow with service. Especially if they don't have the part in stock.

Same model (Honeywell rebranded) at Costco for 4999.99. Costco also has the 7 year warranty offer. Also note that this is part of the Costco direct offers - so you can buy anything else in that program and get $100 off. https://www.costco.com/honeywell-...67860.html

Is the install really $5k?

Every home, situation, or layout will be different. No standard price. These require wiring, reconfiguring electrical equipment, gas piping, and inspections to install. In some areas maybe even pulling permits. Much different than just a plug in generator. Before buying one and being "surprised" by install cost, itd be good to get an estimate and whether your contractor is willing to install a unit bought by you.

Wifi enabled standby generator. Think about that for a minute.

It's so you don't have to go outside during the outage. You connect directly to the machine. It's not for turning on power for your house when you're away.

ISP wan isn't always down at the same time power is, at least for me.
It's really interesting how many of us you think are plugged in directly to ISP wan? No ONT, no modem?
That's not how internet works. You have a feeder line, ONT box, or a cable modem, and then a router and then your LAN/WAN. All of those need power. My FIOS network is up and running, but the cost for this is phenomenal and paid for by Verizon. Comcast are out when the power is out.

Want to add as others have suggested that someone get an install estimate before purchasing. The install for our property was more than the unit cost. Every property is different. For example- We saved cost on gas piping because we put our unit by the meter, but spent quite a bit to tench for power to the home. HTH

Quote from justshovejayohbe :
I think it's a poor investment, the battery backup stuff seems to improve and prices coming down over time, I'm sure it'll be cost parity within a decade
battery backup systems are OK for short outages (half a day to a day). Anywhere that's at risk of extended outages, a generator is still a far better choice and that's unlikely to change much any time soon.

In the DFW area, I was charged around $9k in installation fees 3 years ago for a 24kw Generator running on natural gas. The gas and panel tie ins were less than 8 feet from the generator.

It was excessive install costs, but the generator has not had any issues.

I do the yearly oil / filters / spark plug change. It has only run once for like 3 min. Bought it though due to the Icepocolypse in Texas where we lost power for 18 hours in sub zero weather.

In the New Orleans area, a generator this size will be $15k installed, minimum, based on multiple quotes I and others have received.

lol it doesn't work that way . You have a ATS atomic transfer switch. When electric company power stops working the ATS kicks in and tells the generator to take over. When power comes back ATS tells generator to stop and lets electric company power kick back in .
