24 kW Air-Cooled single-phase Generac generator

Hello everyone, so I'm in the research phase of purchasing a whole home generator. The full install for the 24 KW Generac is 18K. Is this a good price?
TIA
TIA

I put in a 22kw generac in august of 2019 for $7200. I'm sure they've gone up but 18k seems insane to me.

This is 100% dependant on your setup. The more wire and gas line they have to run the more it will be. I had my power and gas supply all within 8' of each other and I paid $3K for install and $6200 for the new 24KW Generac (7210). This was 2022.

Whatever you do when you are spending that much money pay the extra for an 1800rpm generator.

I put in a 22kw Kohler in November for 12k

In 2019 I installed a 24kw. I purchased the generac from HMC generators in prairieville for around $5200 I think with the transfer switch. I also needed 120 feet of the generac all in one cable which cost me $900. I needed about 10am er of gas piping. I poured a concrete base for the generator, pulled my own wire and connected everything. It’s all color coded. Total cost was under $7k.

Holly shite that is way to high! I installed mine myself so it didn’t cost me but about 8 grand. I would call another company

Katy, TX - 22kw Generac installed in March of of this year $12.2k. If I remember correctly, we were quoted at most, $1k more for the 24kw.

You baws going big. I have a 13.5 but it's portable. I'm assuming y'alls are slab mounted in back of the house?

That’s an insane price for an air cooled. Water cooled, maybe. You’d be better off doing a solar and storage setup if it’s going to cost that much.

I paid 11k 6 months ago for a Koehler 20 kw with full install. That price seems a tad high for your quote. I had another contractor quote me the same setup at 16k for mine. I’d definitely shop around.

Just from reading this thread, seems like prices vary greatly, although your quote of 18k seems super high.
In '21, when it was damn near impossible to find one, I paid 11k for a 22KW install. I felt it was a little high, but he was the only guy in the area who didn't have a 6 month wait.
Looking at prices online, you can buy a 24kw generac and transfer switch for about $7k. Where is that extra $11k going in your quote? It took my contractor about half a days work for install.
