20kW Home Standby Generators

20kW Generator

A 20kW Generator supplies backup power for a whole house or a small business. Air-cooled models are the best choice for most homes. Liquid-cooled generators offer better reliability in hot climates.

Medium to large homes have enough power from a 20 kW generator for air conditioners, lights, small appliances, electronics, refrigerator and freezer, furnace, and sump pumps. Also important are home medical devices like oxygen concentrators and CPAP machines. A 20kW standby generator manages heavy loads like air conditioners and electric ranges to prevent generator overloads. If one air conditioner is running and the second tries to start without enough available power, power management allows it to wait until the first air conditioner stops.

20kW Standby Generator

Natural gas is a clean burning fuel with wide availability throughout the continental United States. 20kw natural gas generators can run for days, weeks, even a month or more because the supply of natural gas never runs out. A 20kW propane generator uses fuel from a tank instead of a municipal gas line and requires filling by the gas supplier. A correctly sized tank can run your Generator for more than a week or two.

Anytime the power goes out from stormy weather, car accidents, or at the peak of a hurricane, 20kW standby generators come to life. Fully automatic, they start and run day or night, even if you are not at home to keep the house comfortable and your family safe or provide essential power for a business to prevent loss.

Home or Business: 20 KW Generator

A home standby 20 kW Generator makes things better at home. Most homeowners choose an air-cooled model from one of the top-rated brands offered by Norwall. Air-cooled makes sense for most homes where the weather is moderate. Hot climates with temperatures that frequently rise over 100 degrees Fahrenheit may need the reliability of a liquid-cooled generator.

Liquid-cooled also makes sense for business. When generators run close to maximum capacity for extended periods, the generator creates more heat. Air-cooled models do not cool themselves as efficiently as liquid cooled. A system with a radiator and coolant pump like an automobile stays cooled for extended run times in hot weather or under a near-capacity continuous load.
