Description

The Generac iQ5200 DF (Model 8947) is the 50-state, CARB-compliant version of Generac's flagship dual-fuel inverter generator — the only iQ5200 DF variant approved for sale in California. If you need clean, quiet, portable power that meets the strictest emissions standards anywhere in the country, this is the model to choose. Power that adapts to your fuel supply. Running on gasoline, this generator delivers 3,900 running watts and 5,200 starting watts — enough to power a 13,500 BTU RV air conditioner, a full-size refrigerator, power tools, and multiple devices at once. Switch to a 20 lb propane tank and you get 3,500 running watts with up to 11 hours of runtime at 50% load, or up to 20 hours at 25% load on propane. The fuel selector switch on the control panel makes changing between sources seamless. Inverter-grade clean power. With less than 3% total harmonic distortion (THD), the iQ5200 DF safely runs laptops, tablets, CPAP machines, and other sensitive electronics without the need for a surge protector or power conditioner. Smarter fuel management. Economy Mode automatically adjusts engine speed to match the demand of your load, reducing fuel consumption and noise when maximum output is not needed. The intelligent LED display shows real-time power output and fuel consumption so you stay in control. Safety at every level. COsense technology continuously monitors carbon monoxide and shuts the unit down automatically before CO reaches a hazardous threshold. Low-oil shutdown and GFCI-protected outlets add further layers of protection. Easy to start, easy to move. Push-button electric start with the included 12V lead-acid battery eliminates pull-cord effort. Never- flat wheels and a folding handle allow one person to position the generator across hard surfaces. At 111 lbs, it is sized for portability without sacrificing output. The optional Parallel Kit 7668 lets you link two iQ5200 DF units for up to 7,800 combined running watts. First oil change at 20 hours, then every 100 hours or once per season. Backed by a 3-year residential / 2-year commercial limited warranty.

This is the best of the best! There was an issue with starting the generator as the user manual was incorrect on how to start it. I emailed them regarding the problem.

Style: 5200-Watt Inverter - Electric Start + CO...
I ordered this product. When I received it, I followed the manual instructions, making sure I did everything correctly. The first thing I noticed is that the battery cable and connections were already connected, which, according to the manual, instructs me on how to connect the battery. So once everything was done, I tried to start the generator; however, it had no power. So, on the side, it has a pull string to start it manually. I pulled it, and it started. I figured that if I run it for a while and then turn it off, it will start when I press the start button. Well, it didn't, and it did not have any power whatsoever. I called customer service, and they gave me several numbers of authorized shops to have it looked at. I asked myself, "It's a new product, why should I have to take it somewhere to get fixed?" ... show more

Battery dead after two weeks. Running rough and dying. Customer support contacted and I was told to take it to a Generac repair facility and have it repaired and then I’d be reimbursed. In OKC the Generac dealers only repair large home generators. Can’t find a repair facility. No additional help from Generac or Amazon customer service. Not sure what to do. I rely on this generator for my business and now I’m screwed. I paid extra for a Generac generator for the name. Don’t buy this product. ... show more
