TruePower Technology ensures best-in-class electric generator power. The Generac 16kW Generator delivers smooth, clean power without harmful noise and less than 5 percent Total Harmonic Distortion. Worry free power for electronics, lights, televisions, and small or large appliances like central air conditioners, pumps, refrigerators, and freezers.

A Generac 816cc purpose-built G-Force 800 Series V-Twin Engine powers the Generac 7178. Fully pressurized lubrication contributes to a long life and less maintenance (2-year, 200-hour oil change interval) than competing engines for reliable, trouble-free operation.

The Generac Guardian design includes Quiet-Test self-test mode. During the 5 to 12-minute self-test, the engine runs at a lower RPM which reduces noise, uses less fuel, and reduces wear and tear on the engine. Quiet-Test significantly reduces noise on the Generac 16kW Whole House Generator making it quieter than most competing brands.

A smart, user-friendly Evolution Controller features a multilingual LCD display. Monitor battery status or track maintenance intervals to keep the standby generator in top operating condition and ready for the next power outage.

Wi-Fi Mobile Link Remote Wireless Monitoring comes FREE with the Generac 16kW Generator. Access the controller from anywhere in the world using a smartphone, tablet, PC, laptop, or notebook computer. View operating status, schedule maintenance, review generator status alerts, and much more.

A tough, durable RhinoCoat powder-coat finish adds to the corrosion resistance of the all-aluminum cabinet, suitable for the most extreme weather conditions.
