Advantages of GenTemP thermostatically controlled cold weather kits over other kits for generator home standby systems
GenTemp | Other Kits |
---|---|
Keeps the entire engine/generator compartment warm and dry. | Only heats the crank case oil |
Runs off an isolated circuit. | Runs off the control unit so if there is a problem and the fuse blows the generator is disabled. |
Warms the regulator and keeps it from icing. | Doesn’t keep the regulator warm which is a major cause for generators not starting. |
Has a secondary limit that shuts it down if the thermostat fails so the battery doesn’t “cook” dry. | “Cooks” the battery dry when the battery heater stat fails. |
Solves virtually every cold start issue we have encountered in our 30 years of generator service and installation. | Only addresses a couple of the cold start issues leaving many of them to chance. |
