13kW1 Home Generator System
Model Number: 040324GE-00
You dont need a larger generator just a smarter one! In the past, selecting a home generator system meant choosing between a smaller unit that would only power the barest essentials, or a much larger, more fuel-hungry and costly unit. Perfect for smaller to medium-sized homes, the new 13kW* Home Generator System by GE includes our Symphony II™ Power Management System allowing you to meet the power needs of your whole house, (including up to two 4-ton air conditioners). And with a footprint that is 15% smaller than our other whole house systems, these units blend in beautifully with your homes exterior and landscaping.
Why the Symphony II™ Power Management System? Well, not all appliances are powered equally. Some, such as your central air conditioner, electric clothes dryer, electric stovetop, oven, or whirlpool tub, require a large amount of power to start up or operate properly.
The Symphony II™ orchestrates these high-demand appliances with lower-demand items to give you true whole-house power with a smaller, more affordable generator. The package also includes one of the best comprehensive parts and labor warranties in the business - 4 year limited warranty** (a value of up to $140) - your guarantee of quality and performance.
