Generac 7282 28 kW Generator Features:
The Generac 7282 28 kW Guardian Standby Generator sets a new standard in residential backup power, providing more capacity than any other air-cooled generator on the market. Designed to cover your entire home, it ensures every essential system—heating and cooling, kitchen appliances, medical devices, and sensitive electronics—remains powered during utility outages. Fueled by natural gas or liquid propane, it automatically takes over within seconds, offering complete protection and peace of mind.
At the heart of this generator is Generac’s G-Force engine, a purpose-built and pressure-lubricated design built for long-term reliability. Unlike repurposed engines used by other brands, the G-Force is engineered for continuous operation during extended outages, minimizing maintenance needs while maximizing durability. Combined with True Power™ technology, it delivers clean, utility-quality electricity with less than 5% total harmonic distortion—ideal for today’s sensitive electronics, HVAC systems, and smart home devices.
The 7282 doesn’t just deliver more power; it delivers it smarter. With at least 28% more motor-starting capacity compared to competing air-cooled units, it can easily handle multiple large appliances running at once. Quiet-Test™ self-diagnostics run at lower RPMs for quieter operation and fuel efficiency, while built-in Wi-Fi® with Mobile Link™ allows you to remotely monitor performance, receive maintenance alerts, and ensure your generator is always ready.
Despite its unmatched output, the 7282 is compact and efficient. It takes up to 68% less space than similar-capacity liquid-cooled models and offers significant cost savings—up to $8,000 in product and installation compared to liquid-cooled alternatives. With a corrosion-resistant RhinoCoat™ aluminum enclosure, 24/7/365 customer support, and a 5-year limited warranty, the Generac 7282 is the ultimate whole-home protection solution.
