When the utility power fails, your home doesn’t have to. The Generac 22 kW air-cooled standby generator is a permanently installed backup power system that automatically detects an outage and restores power through a compatible automatic transfer switch—helping keep essential circuits and comfort systems running (HVAC blowers, sump pumps, refrigeration, internet, lighting, and more).

This next-generation platform combines Generac’s purpose-built G-Force™ engine design, Power Zone™ 200 controller, and Mobile Link® connectivity (cellular standard, plus Wi-Fi and Bluetooth) for smart monitoring and dependable standby performance.

Fuel Type, Fuel Usage, and Fuel Pressure Requirements

Fuel type

  • Natural Gas (NG) or Liquid Propane (LP)

Fuel consumption — 22 kW

Natural Gas

  • 1/2 load: 221 ft³/hr (6.27 m³/hr)

  • Full load: 311 ft³/hr (8.80 m³/hr)

Liquid Propane

  • 1/2 load: 89 ft³/hr (2.45 gal/hr / 9.28 L/hr)

  • Full load: 135 ft³/hr (3.71 gal/hr / 14.03 L/hr)

Required inlet fuel pressure (at generator fuel inlet, all load ranges)

  • NG: 3.5–7 in. water column (0.87–1.74 kPa)

  • LP: 10–12 in. water column (2.49–2.99 kPa)

Fuel piping must be properly sized for full-load operation and installed to applicable code.


Installation System Notes (Included/Integrated)

  • 14 in (35.6 cm) flexible fuel line connector (listed outdoor appliance connector)

  • Integral sediment trap to meet common gas code requirements

  • External emergency shutdown button on the outside of the enclosure (for emergency personnel)


Transfer Switch Options (Unbundled vs Bundle)

Unbundled (Generator only)

Best if you’re matching with an existing or separately selected transfer switch / load management design.

Bundled (Recommended complete system)

Bundled models include a 200A service-rated transfer switch with features such as:

  • Includes fuse control module (FCM) standard

  • Integrated surge protection

  • Electrically operated, mechanically-held contacts

  • Rated for aluminum and copper conductors

  • NEMA/UL 3R aluminum outdoor enclosure (indoor/outdoor mounting flexibility)

  • Transfer switch weight: 39.0 lb (17.7 kg)

Energy Management / Load Managers are sold separately when needed to optimize startup loads and help avoid overload conditions.
