Seamless Power

Would Recommend

We purchased a NextGen 24kW w/transfer switch about a month ago and have already had utility power interruptions twice. The system operated seamlessly. We are very happy with the purchase, installation, and its operation.

Something is Wrong with it

I bought this a month ago and it’s still not working properly. It runs for 15 seconds and then shuts off. After five cycles of this it stops altogether. They are still trying to figure out the issue. I am happy to review again once it works properly.

Dependable

Only had it a month and it hasn't been needed, but the weekly exercise runs like clock work and so does the app.

Doesn't run! Doesn't work

Would Not Recommend

15 plus thousand dollars waste of money. Our contractor called the generac service tech at our home 04/17. Unable to reach the generac service tech after the contractor spent most of the day at our home trying to get the generac generator to run.
