Powering a smarter world, introducing Generac’s most powerful air-cooled generator — an affordable, easy-to-install backup power solution.
WAUKESHA, Wis., March 3, 2022 — A leading global designer and manufacturer of energy technology solutions and other power products, Generac Power Systems Inc., has introduced the new Guardian® 26kW Home Standby Generator. Designed to be the most powerful air-cooled home standby generator available on the market, the Guardian 26kW provides 26 kilowatts of peak power. With a sleek design built to take up less space, this generator offers thousands of dollars in savings on purchase and installation costs compared to competitive home standby generators.

Until now, larger homes were required to install liquid-cooled generators to meet their power needs. The air-cooled Guardian 26kW generates an unmatched amount of power, delivering a minimum of 28% more starting power than competing large, air-cooled products. This means this generator can power up higher peak loads when other products may fail. At the same time, the Guardian 26kW takes up 68% less space than previous liquid-cooled home standby generators needed to achieve similar peak loads. Guardian 26kW offers unparalleled power storage for large homes in times of power loss, as it is more than 2.6 times more powerful than Generac’s standard air-cooled unit.
“The Guardian 26kW home standby generator possesses the innovative, state-of-the-art technology Generac is known for, while being affordable to acquire and install The latest addition to our Guardian line continues our mission to make backup power more accessible for everyone as we continue to move towards a future that is not solely reliant on the grid.”

Moreover, the Guardian 26kW is Smart Grid Ready, enabling customers to easily connect to grid programs and offset their energy costs. On its own, this innovative generator functions as a traditional home standby generator — powering your home in the event of an outage. In the same way, during times of peak power demand, Guardian 26kW generator owners can utilize their generator as a virtual power plant to reduce strain on the electrical grid and offset a portion of your monthly energy expenses.
Generac Power Systems offers advanced power grid software solutions, backup and prime power systems for residential, commercial, and industrial applications, solar + battery storage solutions, as well as engine- and battery-powered tools and equipment. In 1959, Generac introduced the first affordable backup generator and later launched a category of automatic home standby generators. Within the generator market, Generac generators sales account for almost eight out of ten units sold today. Committed to sustainable, cleaner energy products — Generac’s Guardian 26kW Generator is poised to revolutionize the 21st century electrical grid.
The Guardian 26kW is available through Generac-authorized dealers, wholesale and retail partners. For more information on the Guardian 26kW Generator or more, visit www.generac.com.
