We get quite a few power outages in my area, being at the end of the dirt road. It is nice to know that I have power when the grid goes out. A great comfort to my Family. An Excellent investment.

Always Reliable Generac

4 years ago
We just purchased this Generac for a new home but we have had a Generac for years! It has always been reliable, low maintenance, and cost effective. Our Generac starts every time the power goes out so it's a feeling of safety knowing we will always have power. We would definitely recommend Generac!

Yes, I recommend this product.

Great Service

4 years ago
We've been waiting months to buy a standby generator from Canadian Tire because of the great no interest 24 month payment option. The generator works great and the 24 month plan makes it affordable for us.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Q: What size propane tank would I need to get to run this generator. The tank would be running the generator only. 

6 years ago
2 Answers
  • A: A 400 lb tank won't deliver enough fuel to run the generator at full load. Needs to deliver 272,500 BTU/hr. Google "Vaporization rates for propane tanks" 500 USG tank is required. A 250 would be close to enough but the suppliers I contacted don't sell them.

Q: What size pad is required to place this generator on?

6 years ago
1 Answer
  • A: Our Home Standby Generators now come with a Honeycomb bottom that you can put down on limestone screening and small gravel and will suffice so a pad is not a requirement any more. A concrete pad is an ideal solution though but does cost more. Pad size should measure 52.5” wide x 29.5” deep.

Q: will the generac generator start in -30or 40 below weather .

6 years ago
1 Answer
  • A: Yes, these generators are tested to start in up to -40 degree weather – but anything home standby in an area that drops below zero should be equipped with a cold weather kit (oil filter, breather and battery) to ensure a smooth start. All of the cold weather kits are available from Canadian Tire.

Q: Can someone please clarify for me.  I assume the units CT is selling would be CSA certified.  Did someone get fooled here or did the valve change have nothing with the actual Generac unit?  I wouldn’t think CT would sell something that wasn’t CSA cert?

Q: bonjour le panneau qui es ds generac 16kw es ce que c un 18 circuit???

7 years ago
Translate with Google
1 Answer
  • A: Le générateur 16KW Home Standby Generator n’est pas fourni avec un commutateur de transfert automatique (ATS) ni un circuit ATS à 18 circuits. Si vous achetez auprès de Canadian Tire l'un des ATS homologués Generac Service (100 ou 200 ampères), vous pourrez alimenter 18 circuits en même temps dans la maison, à condition que la charge totale ne dépasse pas la capacité de la génératrice Home Standby qui est plafonné à 16KW.
