  • XP13000HXT Natural Gas-Focused Review
Style: 13,000-Watt Tri Fuel
Okay, you are clearly eyeing the HXT version of this generator to run natural gas…or at least have that option, right? Otherwise, you can spend significantly less and get the dual fuel version. If you are like me, you would like something that runs off natural gas, similar to a whole-house solution…but without spending the $15K of that whole-house solution. This unit offers a good compromise. It is not as powerful as a whole-house generator, and it requires a bit of effort to get it up and running each time you need it, but it is far less expensive. My goal was to run the smaller of my two AC units, the associated furnace fan, and most other appliances (e.g., refrigerators) when we next lose power in the Houston area for whatever reason. I was comparing this option against the considerably less expensive Champion 100416 tri-fuel generator, which also looks well-designed. The problem with the Champion unit for my purposes is that, while the wattage is good enough, it only has a 30-amp outlet, which is likely not enough to start even my smaller AC/furnace fan. This DuroMax has a 50-amp outlet which definitely will do the job. Also, the digital gauge is a nice-to-have feature that will prove useful in assessing the load. However, the challenge with a bigger generator is that you do need a natural gas line with a hefty volume of BTUs…the manual says it consumes 225,000 btus per hour at full load. Initially I had the thought to hook it up to my existing 1/2-inch natural gas line on the back patio, which was originally installed to support a grill. However, most grills only need 50,000-100,000 BTUs per hour, and that 1/2-inch line runs a long way from the meter (thus lowering the volume), so that connection seemed likely to be inadequate. Instead, I decided to install a connection off of a 3/4-inch line that supplies my pool heater. The pool heater requires 400,000 BTUs per hour, so I knew that that natural gas line would provide enough BTUs, and the existing regulator was the appropriate size, too (6.0 - 9.0 inch water column according to the manual, which you can find on the DuroMax website). Anyway, I mention the above because I am a very average DIYer, and I had to think through these considerations carefully. Other lessons learned… You are going to need about a quart of 10W-30 SAE motor oil. I don’t know exactly how much because I combined two partial bottles. The point is that it does not come with the oil, so order some if you do not already have it. I also would recommend a trickle charger in case you do not fire up the generator very often. Trickle chargers are cheap and will keep the battery in healthy condition. It helps to have your own tools when taking off the shipping brace, putting on the wheels, et cetera. For example, having a socket wrench made some steps easier. I felt like the supplied tools were a bit lacking. The biggest challenge I faced was that the natural gas hose came with what appeared to be a 3/4-inch to 1/2-inch reducer attached on one end, and goodness gracious was mine on there tightly! It is nice that it has that reducer for those who plan to screw it onto a 1/2-inch gas line, but I didn’t need it, so I had to take it off…which should have been quick and easy…but was not. It took my (admittedly inconsiderable) strength as a 48-year-old guy with a 24-inch pipe wrench and a 12-inch crescent wrench (a.k.a., adjustable wrench) to break it free. Once I had it hooked up to my natural gas supply and the switches in the right positions, I pushed the start button. While the battery did its bit, it failed to crank. It would automatically stop trying after a couple of seconds, then it would automatically retry after a few more seconds. It did this 4-5 times before it finally caught and began to run. Was this because it took a little time to fill the hose and “prime?” I am not sure. I just mention it in hopes offering comfort if your unit does not start on the first attempt either. That’s as far as I’ve gotten at the time of this writing because I still need to have the interlock kit and 50-amp receptacle outlet installed on the house. If I learn more that I deem valuable, I will provide an update. Hope this helps! ********* Update: I did get the interlock kit and 50-amp receptacle outlet installed, and I am happy to report that this setup did the job of running my smaller AC unit, two refrigerators, and all the small stuff in the house (lights, two computers, Internet modem/router, ceiling fans, et cetera). With all of that going, it showed 3 out of 5 bars...so approximately 60% load. Time will tell how well it holds up, but for now I remain pleased with this generator. Well done, DuroMax. ... show more

Delivery was quick and the unit instructions were clear and easy to understand. Had the unit put together in an hour and scheduled a plumber to tap my home gas line for a permanent supply of energy. Everything works and very impressed with the workmanship/quality!

  • A real trooper!
Style: 13,000-Watt Tri Fuel
We had an electrician and a plumber connect this unit up to natural gas and to our mountain home’s electrical panel via a manual cut-over plate in the box. We had been testing it once a month, but then 3 days ago the electric company cut off power to large swaths of the mountains due to high winds. We fired up the DuroMax and it has been running non-stop off of our nat gas line ever since without issue. What a trooper! It provides plenty of power to run our well pump, our boiler’s pumps, and all of our home’s lights and smaller appliances. ... show more

  • Easy setup
Style: 13,000-Watt Tri Fuel
I haven't had the opportunity to use it yet. I have taken it out of the box and assembled it, added oil and started it. It's easy to start and it does generate electricity. I ran it for a short while on propane. I bought it primarily for power outages at home. It should handle the bulk of my power needs-well pump, circulator for hydronic heat, refrigerator and freezer, maybe a couple lights. My neighbor has a stationary Generac which comes on automatically in the event of a power outage. But when I priced them, they were over $8k when installed. I can put up with some manual maneuvering for the money I saved. Plus, it's portable! I have a sub-panel near where I intend to run it. There isn't room in my main panel for another 50 amp circuit. So I can't use an interlock kit in the main panel to prevent the switches from both being on at the same time. That isn't an issue for me, because I will switch off the main breaker before plugging in the generator, and I will leave copious instructions and warnings that one switch must be off before the other is turned on. Not to code, I am sure, but I don't think the interlock kits are to code either. I like that it is tri-fuel. I may run natural gas piping to where I intend to use it-outside one of the garage doors. It does come with some flexible gas line, which will make hookups easy, if I go that route. It advertises generating full 13500 watts using gasoline, less with propane, and even less with natural gas. Still, it should be plenty size for my needs. One concern is that it says to adjust the air/fuel mixture if operating above 3000 ft elevation. But it says to have this performed by an authorized dealer. I live at 7000 feet elevation, and the nearest authorized service is more than 60 miles away. It would have been nice if I had been asked my elevation at purchase so that the fuel/air mixture could have been properly set before delivery. At the very least, there should be instructions for the purchaser to do this themselves. Finally, it isn't as quiet as a stationary generator. That's why I will use it outside the garage, which is the farthest distance to operate it practically from my bedroom. And I appreciate that it comes with 50, 30, and 20 amp plugs if you wish to build your own power cords. Time will tell how good it is. So far, I'm happy with it. ... show more

If there’s one thing, The stock spark plug won’t run LNG. All the reviews state this. I just tested the stock plug as of 02/24 for LNG. It won’t run. Works fine on propane, works even better now I suspect.
