User questions & answers

Question:	is the air filter a pleated round one and NOT the flat one as pictured. My machine was put in 2013, engine
Answer:	Yes Amazon has the wrong picture for this kit. It is the round cylinder air filter ( Part# 0G3332) with black ends on it for pre 2013 models
Question:	Will this work for model 58701 8K standby unit
Answer:	Need to know month and year it was purchased. The 5870 used a different air filter prior to early 2013
Question:	I bought the Generac 6482 maintenance kit from Amazon last year and it included a PLEATED ROUND AIR FILTER, WHICH IS CORRECT, not a flat one as piture
Answer:	This kit is for 2013 and newer units only. Pre 2013 8kW units are 5662, 10kW units are 5663, 12-kW units are 5664, & 20kW units are 5665
Question:	This kit fits the Generac 5696 generator
Answer:	You can look at the individual parts on your 5696. The spark plug has its product number written right on it. A Champion RC12YC Spark Plug comes in this kit. If that's the same Spark Plug you have in your 5696 then you only need to measure the "gap" to maintain the correct gap. The Oil Filter also has its product number written on it. In this case Oil Filter 070185E is normally used. (there is a smaller - 30% smaller - filter that they used as well, in the event in has to be placed in a more confined space.) This particular Oil Filter is roughly 2-3/4" X 3-5/8" Tall AND it has to have room to screw onto the nipple. The Air Filter OE9371A is the Air Filter in this kit. Made for the "EVOLUTION" 8KW Auto-Standby Generator. The filter has an outside measurement of 5" X 7-5/8". The white filter material is roughly 4-3/4" X 7-1/4" and 5/8" deep. (This will need to fit in your model 5696 air box.) This "DIYer" visual comparison should give you an idea of the parts in this particular kit. The owners manual, a local Generac dealer or contacting Generac directly by either phone or website are your next best steps. Hope this helps.

User questions & answers

Question:	What is the dB rating on this unit
Answer:	50 dB at 1/2”. That is what the manufacturer is saying. Without a standard it is worthless information. I can claim mine is 47 dB but that measurement is at 30’ from the quietest side another claims 57dB but that is at 10’ Reporting the max reading from any side. Guess which one is quieter? Every generator is 0dB if you stand far enough away.
Question:	Where is it made
Answer:	Most of Generac’s products—like the XC Series portable generators—are built right here in Wisconsin. However, the iQ3500 is manufactured to our specifications by a partner overseas.
Question:	Where is it made
Answer:	Same as my DuroMax XP2000iS. These are all Yamaha clones. I paid $450 for mine. Same exact generator, just blue instead of orange. Also, the Pulsar PG2300iS at $429.
Question:	Generac 30 A for RV
Answer:	I have a Rockwood 233s travel trailer with a 15k air conditioning unit. This runs the whole unit, lights, fridge, water pump fans and AC no problem.

User questions & answers

Question:	Will this fit
Answer:	Hello,My name is Anna and I will be assisting you today. The unit can be ordered with or without the 200 amp automatic transfer switch. We do recommend working directly with an authorized independent servicing provider in your area for assistance with the purchase or pairing of a transfer switch to your backup generator as those technicians are both trained to work on Generac products, and are familiar with your state and local electrical codes. I do apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, and have provided you with a link that you can use to pull up and review contact information for these local authorized independent servicing providers in your area below. Please don’t hesitate to contact us with any other questions or concerns.http://www.generac.com/dealer-locator?category=1
Question:	Can you tell me if this kit is compatible with model
Answer:	7043 is the newest model.
Question:	Will this kit work with QP
Answer:	My home has four, 200 amp panels. Our generator only backs up one of them. The house was designed with a generator in mind so we put various critical loads on the backup panel. Refrigerators, internet, one air conditioner, things like that. Sometimes, with larger homes on smaller lots you may not have the luxury of backing up the entire house.
Question:	Hi, i would like to know if the generac 5721 kit are comptabile with generac air filter# 0d9723 and oile filter # 070185 and spark plug # rc14yc
Answer:	The generator has the option to test itself once a week; bi-weekly or monthly depending on which model you purchase. Any of these settings would work for the generator. Some customers wish to conserve on fuel, so they prefer the bi-weekly or monthly setting. It is a preference, none of these options would harm the unit. If the exercise time is not adjusted; it will be set at the default which is once weekly at 2pm every Wednesday. I hope this information is helpful. please contact us if you need any further assistance.
