| Summary | The Genmax GM15000ET is a 13,000-watt tri-fuel generator built for serious power demands. With 13,000 running watts and 15,000 starting watts, this unit can handle whole-house backup scenarios, including central air conditioning, refrigerators, well pumps, and multiple circuits running simultaneously. Because it runs on gasoline, propane, or natural gas, owners gain real flexibility during emergencies when one fuel source might be unavailable or during extended outages when tapping into a home natural gas line eliminates refueling trips entirely. | The Sportsman GEN9000DF is a dual fuel generator capable of delivering 9000 surge watts and 8000 running watts, powered by a 15.0 HP 4-Stroke OHV engine. It offers both recoil and electric start options and includes multiple outlets for versatile use. |
