Kohler 14RCA 14kW Generator With Exclusive-Color Aluminum Enclosure
The Kohler 14RCA 14kW Home Standby Generator offers reliable whole-home backup power with a premium aluminum enclosure available in exclusive colors—perfect for homeowners who want top-tier protection without sacrificing exterior aesthetics. This generator restores power automatically within seconds of an outage and delivers clean, stable electricity with less than 5% harmonic distortion, keeping sensitive electronics, HVAC systems, and appliances safe. Quiet performance, compact size, and a corrosion-resistant enclosure make it an ideal long-term solution for residential standby power.
Powered by the Kohler Command PRO CH740 OHV engine, the 14RCA is built for durability and low-maintenance operation. Hydraulic valve lifters eliminate routine adjustments, while electronic speed control delivers fast response to changing power demands. The RDC2 digital controller—shown on page 3 of the specification—monitors voltage, frequency, engine temperature, oil pressure, battery health, and runtime hours. It includes multiple programmable exercise modes, smart cooldown features, and built-in Ethernet for OnCue® Plus remote monitoring. With fuel consumption as low as 5.4 m³/hr NG or 2.3 m³/hr LPG at full load (page 3), the 14RCA is efficient and dependable.
The aluminum enclosure—available in exclusive finishes—provides robust protection while maintaining a polished aesthetic. It meets a 181 mph wind rating (page 1), resists corrosion, and allows installation as close as 18 inches from the home. UL 94 HF-1 flame-retardant sound-deadened foam and a critical silencer keep noise levels low: 63 dB during weekly exercise and 69 dB during normal operation (page 3). With tool-free removable panels, through-wall fuel/electrical connections, and a sturdy aluminum base, installation and maintenance are streamlined. Kohler backs the generator with a 5-year/2000-hour limited warranty, reinforcing its long-term reliability.
