Quiet & Reliable Standby Power
Quiet operation and reliability, the Cummins QuietConnect Air-Cooled generators offer a budget-friendly solution to homeowners preparing for thunderstorms, ice storms, brownouts, and rolling power outages.
A 20kW Air-Cooled Generator is a popular solution for homeowners experiencing occasional, disruptive short-term power outages. These units provide ample power to run a 5-ton air conditioner, plus home lights, and receptacle circuits found on a typical 200-Amp Main Breaker Panel. Air-Cooled Generators from Cummins can also be programmed to manage and run up to two 5-ton air conditioners operating one after the other.
Whole House Coverage for many Homes:
Whole house coverage from air-cooled generators is a reality for many homeowners. Here's a generator sizing guide based on a home's square footage:
- 13kW - for homes less than 1200 SF.
- 17kW - for homes up to 1500 SF.
- 20kW - for homes up to 2000 SF; Managed Whole House coverage up to 3000 SF.
Some manufacturers are now producing Air-Cooled generators rated at 26kW. Engineers at Cummins Power Generation draw the line at 20kW for Air-Cooled Generators to minimize engine over-heating issues. Reliable standby power is key. For applications requiring more than 20kW of standby power, we recommend our Cummins Liquid-Cooled Generators.
