Kohler’s 20RCAL is the model contractors most often recommend when a homeowner asks for the most reliable mid-size standby generator on the market. Kohler has been making industrial-grade engines for nearly a century, and the 20RCAL brings that engineering pedigree into a residential package. Output is 20 kW on liquid propane (18 kW on natural gas), enough to back up a typical 2,500–3,500 sq ft home in its entirety.
The bundled 200 A automatic transfer switch handles whole-house service. Within seconds of detecting a utility outage, the generator starts, transfers the home’s panel to standby power and continues running until the grid is restored. There is no load-shedding required for an average home — your AC, refrigerator, well pump, lights and outlets all run simultaneously.
The corrosion-resistant aluminum enclosure is engineered for coastal and high-humidity climates and stands up to year-round outdoor exposure. Kohler’s OnCue Plus app provides remote monitoring of run status, exercise schedules and maintenance reminders. The 999cc Kohler V-Twin engine uses pressurized lubrication and a hydraulic valve lifter system, the kind of features normally seen on commercial-grade equipment, for long service intervals and quiet operation.
Backed by a 5-year limited residential warranty.
