Big Generator Protection�
Half the Price
More power, more features and an exceptional price make the GUARDIAN QuietSource�
16 kW the best value in automatic standby generators. With GUARDIAN�s
new breakthrough technology, the 16 kW provides the circuit protection
of a much larger generator at a truly remarkable price. If you need to
run more than one air conditioner, the GUARDIAN QuietSource 16 kW is the
affordable solution. With 33% more circuit coverage than our 13 kW, this
powerhouse can start a 5-ton AND a 3-ton,
or two 4-ton air conditioners with plenty of power to spare.
Whisper Quiet Operation GUARDIAN�s
exclusive patent-pending Whisper-Test� low speed exercise feature makes
the GUARDIAN QuietSource 16 kW the quietest air-cooled generator on the
market. Whisper-Test reduces noise to less than 59 dBA during the weekly
automatic self-test. That�s quieter than your central air conditioner.
With our pre-packaged, 16-circuit pre-wired system, installation is fast,
easy and inexpensive, making the 16 kW an even better value.
