Why Standby Generators
Power outages are disruptive to daily life. But with innovative technology designed to keep your home powered through outage after outage, your Kohler home generator makes it easy to keep life moving.
Life doesn’t stop when the power goes out.
Here are a few scenarios where a home generator can make all the difference.
-
If you or a loved one use medical devices like oxygen machines, ventilators, or CPAP machines, a power outage can disrupt your care. Reach out to a Kohler dealer to identify a generator that powers essential equipment when you need it.
-
Remote workers and home-based businesses can’t afford downtime. Whether you’re on an important video call, managing online orders, or running a storefront, KOHLER generators keep your operations running smoothly—no interruptions, no lost income.
-
A vacant home is especially vulnerable during a power outage. Prevent costly damage from frozen pipes, mold, or flooding with a reliable generator that automatically kicks in—even when no one is there to turn it on.
-
For those embracing a self-sufficient lifestyle, a KOHLER generator ensures you have a dependable energy source. Whether you’re living in a remote cabin or an eco-friendly home, you’ll never be left in the dark.
-
From hurricanes and tornadoes to wildfires and blizzards, extreme weather can knock out power for days—or even weeks. With a KOHLER generator, you can weather the storm with confidence, knowing your home and loved ones are protected.
-
Whether it's a wine collection, musical instruments, exotic pets, or more, KOHLER keeps your home climate stable and your valuables safe. Safeguard what matters most.
How it works
-
Your generator is connected to your home’s electrical systems, continuously monitoring the utility power.
-
Your generator’s Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) detects the disruption in utility power within seconds.
-
The generator supplies your home with electricity until your utility power is restored.
-
As power is restored, the ATS automatically switches back to utility grid power. Your generator remains in standby until the next outage.
