re: Recommendations for whole home generator?

Lots of people getting liquid cooled beasts in here huh? But I guess if you have pool loads you might need the extra horsepower.

I have a 22kW Honeywell (Generac) and it’s been great for 2 years. Do the oil changes myself and have backup filters/spark plugs/stepper motor in case of a random failure. Haven’t had to mess with it at all though and it’s got 24 hours on it. Time will tell.

I was on the fence about what brand to choose and had my heart set on a Briggs and Stratton. I went with what was available at the time (early 2021) and was happy I got the Generac due to it being so common. Pretty much any company could service it in a pinch since it’s on almost every house that has standby power. But honestly, whoever you choose will give you a good unit. There are some quality options out there.
