BENFIELD ELECTRIC HOME GENERATORS
PROTECT YOUR FAMILY WITH A KOHLER STANDBY GENERATOR
Benfield Electric standby generator

In the event of an outage,KOHLER® home generators provide worry-free emergency power to support your electrical needs for days, or even weeks. A standby generator is permanently installed outdoors, much like an air conditioning unit. The generator operates on your home's existing fuel source - whether that's natural gas or liquid propane. Clean, quiet, automatic backup power - just what your family needs to be safe and comfortable.

Benfield Electric Generator
Automatic, hands-off operation
  • In the event of a utility power outage, power is automatically restored to your home
Fast backup power
  • KOHLER generators restore power within 10 seconds of an outage
Quiet
  • New, sleek, weather-resistant sound enclosures protect the unit from the year-round elements
  • Operating noise is at neighborly-friendly levels: at or below 65 dB(A), quieter than a typical vacuum cleaner
Power
  • The 12RES model is the only generator in its class powerful enough to start and run a typical 4-ton (48,000 BTU) central-air conditioner
Easy to service
  • Simple to use, the KOHLER Advanced Digital Control (ADC) shows readings on output, battery voltage, oil pressure, engine hours, run conditions and system fault conditions, while providing precision power and password-secure access (currently offered on units 8 kW to 30 kW)
  • In the unlikely event service is required, it can often be provided over the phone
Easy to install
  • The 8.5kW and 12kW units are equipped with a built-in mounting pad for reduced installation time and cost
Natural gas or LP fuel
  • Unlike portable generators that need to be refueled and manually started, KOHLER generator sets are fueled by your home's existing fuel source - natural gas or liquid propane (LP)
UL-Listed
  • All KOHLER standby residential generators are UL tested and listed to UL 2200 for your safety and protection
  • KOHLER automatic transfer switches are UL tested and listed to UL 1008
Performance
