Q How long does it take to install a generator
system?
A The air-cooled 7 kW, 12 kW and 15 kW, which
come equipped with a comprehensive installation
kit, can take as little as 4 hours. The liquid-cooled
will normally take up to 14 hours, over 2 days. The
reason is that while the air-cooled units include a
composite mounting pad, the liquid-cooled units,
because of the added weight, must be placed on
a stronger mounting surface. Concrete slabs are
poured and need one day to set properly, which
accounts for some of the additional installation
time. If the installer can source a prefabricated
mounting pad that will meet the weight
requirements, the installation time will be reduced
accordingly. The length of time is based on a
“typical application”. It does not apply to extended
runs of conduit or gas piping or placement of a
unit away from the incoming gas or electrical
service.
Q How much fuel do the units use?
A Use generator reference chart pages 14-17.
Q Sizing your generator: Air-cooled or Liquid-
cooled?
A Air-cooled: The BRYANT air-cooled generator
comes equipped with an automatic transfer switch
and emergency distribution panel to power
specific circuits in your home. The 7/6 kW is
