I live in an area with high water table. I was thinking of getting a portable 6000 watt generator incase of power outage for two sump pit pumps. I have marine battery backup sump pumps but the last outage lasted 5 hours. I decided to have a permanent backup system incase I was gone for a day or more. The professional installer liked the transfer switch and generator unit. The weekly cycle check comes occurs on schedule. The Generator sound is like a lawn mower outside. Electric power has only went out once in my area since the installation and the unit kicked on and the areas of house with dedicated circuits worked. With the smaller unit the only big decision is which house circuits will have the priority.
I've installed three of these. One works fine. One of the other ones didn't work out of the box. The other worked for a while then quit, got fixed then quit again. I strongly advise my customers not to buy them, but, most like the price better than higher quality brands.
Installed on a Friday in Nov 2013. Power failed for 27 hours beginning the following Sunday. Glad I had it. (As installed it ran at 62 Hz; the installer is looking into this.) 4 months is really too short a time to write a conclusive review, because long-term reliability is a key element. But so far I am satisfied.
Excellent unit to keep the household running during a power outage. We weren't looking for a generator to power everything in the house all at once. The CorePower unit provides us with enough capacity to run our well, furnace, hot water heater, oven and selected lights at a great price. Installation was straightforward for our electrician as well.
Took weekend to install. Never have to worry about power going out, when not home to start portable generator.Unit starts in 10 seconds.Turns lights,AC,refrigerator,and TV back on in another 5 seconds.All without lifting a finger,pull starting portable generator ,and untangling extension cords.VERY HAPPY WITH THIS GENERATOR SYSTEM.
