About

Generac

When your utility power goes out, you need a reliable backup generator to keep your home or business running. Generac generators are ideal solutions offering superior performance and longevity.

As a certified Generac dealer, All American Generator Services has a large selection of residential and commercial generators to meet all your needs.

Guardian Generator

Generac Quality

Generac is the most trusted brand on the market. For more than 60 years, they have created exceptional generators for homes and businesses. Among their many benefits, Generac generators offer:

  • Automatic operation. Generac generators detect when there’s no utility power and automatically turn on for a consistent supply. They deliver power directly to your electrical system to supply your entire home or business, or just essential items.
  • Durability. Generac generators are designed to withstand extreme weather and operate reliably in harsh conditions.
  • Fuel efficiency. Generac generators run on your home’s or business facility’s supply of natural gas or liquid petroleum, eliminating the need for refueling.

Home Solutions

Generac generators protect your home, giving you peace of mind that your loved ones and prized possessions are safe during a power outage. When California’s high winds or wildfires cause you to lose power, your Generac home standby generator kicks in automatically to provide the backup power supply you need. And when utility power comes back, your generator returns to standby mode for a seamless transition.

Business Solutions

Investing in a Generac commercial generator is the best way to protect your assets. Power failures can harm your equipment and appliances, leading to costly replacements and repairs. A Generac backup generator kicks in right away to power these essential items and prevent damage. Using a Generac generator also allows you to keep your business open during a power outage to avoid losing revenue.

Generac Builders Alliance

The best time to install a Generac generator is during the new construction process. By installing a generator when a home is first being wired, you save time and money on the process.

If you are a builder looking for generators for your new construction project, joining the Generac Builders Alliance program is an ideal solution. As a member, you gain access to the largest, most diverse inventory of products available, with no cost or obligation. You can also increase your bottom line with Generac preferred builder pricing.

Homes and communities built with a generator command a higher market value. A home that comes with a Generac generator is a major selling point for potential buyers knowing that they are getting the best protection possible.

What is the expected lifespan of a Generac standby generator?
With professional installation and routine, preventative maintenance, a Generac home standby generator has an operational lifespan of 20 to 30 years. In terms of active mechanical deployment, this translates to roughly 3,000 to 5,000 running hours. Because Southern California properties experience unique environmental stressors—such as coastal salt air and intense inland summer heat—enrolling in an annual maintenance program with a local certified dealer ensures your system safely reaches its maximum operational longevity.

Which is the better investment for residential backup power: Kohler or Generac?
While both manufacturers construct capable standby systems, Generac remains the dominant industry standard, commanding over 70% of the residential market. Generac offers a significantly better price-to-performance ratio, providing identical or superior wattage capacities at a lower upfront equipment cost. Furthermore, because Generac features the largest network of certified technicians and parts suppliers, sourcing replacement components and scheduling certified service is much faster and more cost-effective than navigating more specialized, low-volume brands.

Can a Generac generator run continuously for 24 hours a day during a prolonged outage?
Yes. Generac standby systems are engineered to run continuously for days—and even weeks—during extended Public Safety Power Shutoffs (PSPS) or regional wildfire emergencies. Because the system plumbs directly into your property’s existing natural gas or liquid propane supply, it bypasses the manual refueling requirements of portable units. The only operational caveat during an extended multi-day blackout is to briefly shut the generator down once every 24 hours to inspect the engine oil level and top it off if necessary.

How do I determine the correct size Generac generator for my home or business?
Sizing depends entirely on your property’s total electrical load and whether you intend to back up the entire property or just essential operations. A standard 15kW to 26kW air-cooled Generac Guardian Series system is typically optimized to power standard-sized homes, including essential appliances and primary air conditioners. For luxury estates with complex automation, multi-zone HVAC frameworks, or commercial properties across Los Angeles, Ventura, and Santa Barbara Counties, a liquid-cooled system like the 30kW Protector Series delivers the heavy-duty wattage needed to handle high-demand electrical loads safely.

Do Generac standby systems require manual activation when the utility grid goes down?
No, the entire process is completely hands-free and automated. The unit operates in tandem with an Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) that constantly monitors incoming utility grid voltage. The moment a grid failure, voltage drop, or utility blackout is detected, the ATS immediately disconnects your property from the utility lines to prevent dangerous backfeeding. It then instantly signals the generator to start up and routes the newly generated electricity to your electrical panel—fully restoring power to your property in less than 10 seconds.
