Why Generac Generators and Crown Wheele is Smart?

Generac home generators are often referred to as “smart” due to their integration of advanced technologies and features that enhance their functionality, monitoring, and control capabilities. Here are some reasons why Generac home generators are considered smart:

  1. Mobile Monitoring and Control: Generac offers mobile apps and online platforms that allow homeowners to monitor and control their generators remotely. Through these apps, users can check the status of their generator, view real-time performance data, receive notifications, and even start or stop the generator from anywhere with an internet connection. This provides convenience and peace of mind, especially during power outages when homeowners may be away from home.
  2. Automatic Operation and Self-Testing: Generac smart generators are equipped with automatic transfer switches (ATS) that can detect a power outage and automatically switch the electrical load from the utility power to the generator power. They also perform regular self-tests to ensure the generator is functioning properly. The smart features allow for seamless and hands-off operation, eliminating the need for manual intervention during power disruptions.
  3. Advanced Monitoring and Diagnostics: Generac smart generators have built-in monitoring systems that constantly monitor various aspects of the generator’s performance. They can track fuel levels, battery status, maintenance schedules, and other key parameters. If an issue arises, the monitoring system can provide alerts or notifications to both you and Crown Wheele, enabling timely maintenance or repair actions.
  4. Adaptive Load Management: Some Generac smart generators come with adaptive load management capabilities. These systems can monitor the electrical load within a home and automatically manage the power distribution to ensure essential appliances and devices are prioritized during power outages. This feature helps prevent overload situations and ensures critical equipment remains powered.
  5. Integration with Home Automation: Generac smart generators can often integrate with home automation systems, allowing homeowners to incorporate their generators into a comprehensive smart home setup. This integration enables seamless control and coordination of various smart devices, such as lighting, security systems, and HVAC systems, to enhance overall home management and convenience.

It’s important to note that specific features and capabilities may vary depending on the model and configuration of the Generac home generator. It’s advisable to contact Crown Wheele to understand the full range of smart features offered by a particular model.
