Many of the products under the Generac Pro banner are powered by the company’s G-Force engine, originally designed by Generac specifically for generator applications and first introduced on the company’s XC Series portable generators.

“The many retailers, contractors and rental companies we’ve spoken with in developing the Generac Pro line have told us they want a high-quality, high-value alternative to Honda-powered products,” said Derik Gatzke, vice president of sales, Generac. “We believe powering the Generac Pro line with Generac G-Force engines meets that need.”

The Generac Pro line will be supported by Generac’s nationwide network of parts and service providers. “Our network guarantees same-day shipping on all service parts and 48-hour delivery,” Gatzke said. “That means downtime is minimized on the job site.”

Generac Pro products will be highlighted at Booth 6727 at the Rental Show.
