Designed for large homes and job sites, it features a 10.5-gallon fuel tank for up to 16 hours of runtime, remote electric start, CO sensor for safety, and multiple transfer switch-ready outlets. Its low total harmonic distortion (<5%) protects sensitive electronics, while durable construction and smart idle control maximize efficiency and longevity. ## Description For your toughest power needs, the Westinghouse WGen14500c portable generator with CO sensor produces up to 18,000 peak watts and 14,500 running watts. The heavy duty 713cc 4-Stroke OHV Westinghouse V-Twin engine has a cast iron sleeve and runs for up to 16 hours at 25% load on a 10.5 gallon gasoline tank, keeping you powered all day or night with a built in fuel gauge and automatic low oil shutdown. Smart Idle lowers idle speed with no load to enhance fuel efficiency and extend run time. There is one 120/240V 14-50R 50A outlet and one 120/240V L14-30R 30A outlet. Both are transfer switch and interlock kit ready so they can power major appliances like air conditioners, refrigerators, sump pumps, as well as lights and entertainment centers at once with a single cord hookup. It also has a 120V L5-30R 30A outlet, two GFCI 120V 5–20R 20A standard duplex outlets and two USB ports. At less than 5% THD, you can safely power electronics like computers, phones and TVs. Copper windings help the unit produce cleaner power, run cooler and last longer. Push button electric start and remote start make powering up easy. A VFT data center shows voltage output, frequency and lifetime hours for real time information and maintenance alerts. Easily portable with never flat wheels, steel handles and lift bar, it’ll have your house, travel trailer or jobsite powered in seconds. Backed by a 3 year limited warranty, lifetime tech support and our Westinghouse Nationwide Service Network. Review: Happy with my purchase - Bought this to replace the old 8kw generator. I wanted a generator that would power our 5ton ac unit. Assembly was uneventful, with good supplied instructions. I filled it with the provided oil, added a couple of gallons of gas, and connected the battery. The engine almost started on the first crank, and came to life on the second crank. It is surprisingly quiet compared with my old 8kw set. and is less noisy than our 6kw Champion set. I have not yet tried to power the ac unit yet, but have done a trial run on basic house electrical system and the water well. While my 8kw set would really feel the well pump starting up, this set hardly noticed it. I've installed a soft start on the ac compressor and I do not anticipate any issue when, one day, using this generator. I will offer one piece of advice. Connect the battery before installing the adjacent wheel. Review: Extremely well built - This 18k generator will be replacing a 32 year old 6k generator. It's extremely heavy and seems well built. Assembly was a breeze and took less than 30 minutes including filling with oil and gas, attaching the battery cable and wheel kit. I pressed the start button and it fired right up. I haven't tried running the house yet but it probably won't be long as much as our power goes out. The noise is actually not bad and maybe a litte quieter than my old one. ## Features - HUGE PORTABLE POWER: The WGen14500c generator with CO sensor is an ideal power source for jobsites and emergency backup of larger homes.
