NEVER LOSE POWER AGAIN.
During an outage, your KOHLER® keeps your power on.
So you and your family can stay safe, powered and connected.
What's a home generator?
A standby home generator keeps your power on during an outage. It’s installed outside your house (like an AC unit) and comes on automatically — whether you’re home or away. All within seconds of a power outage.
Plus home generators run on propane or natural gas, so there’s no refueling.
Power It All
KOHLER generators can power your entire home. Take a look.

Water
Running water is a big deal—you need it for drinking, cleaning and flushing. On the other hand, if it’s running into your basement that’s another kind of big deal—really big.

What Does a Power Outage Cost
How it works
Good news: when the power goes out, you won’t lift a finger. Home improvement expert Ed Del Grande shows you how.
What’s an automatic transfer switch? (aka ATS)
Meet the brains behind your home generator system. The ATS is always monitoring your home’s power.
During an outage, it automatically transfers power from the utility to your generator. And when utility power is restored, the ATS turns off your generator and returns your home’s power to the utility grid. Pretty great, huh?
How much is this going to cost?
A home generator plus installation typically starts under $6,000. However, the total cost will vary based on your power and installation needs.
When shopping standby home generators, your checklist should include generator size, costs, permits and . But don’t worry. Your KOHLER dealer will handle all the details, so you don’t have to.
