Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How does Briggs & Stratton compare to Generac?

Both are quality standby generators. Generac has a larger market share and broader service network. Briggs & Stratton offers competitive ProSource pricing with comparable residential performance. We’ll walk you through both options side by side at your site visit — without pressure.

 

Q: Are Briggs & Stratton generators still manufactured?

The home standby line remains in production. We verify current product availability and warranty terms at the time of your quote.

 

Q: What fuel does it use?

Natural gas is the most common choice for Chicago-area installations — connects directly to your existing gas service, no fuel storage required. Propane available for homes without natural gas service.

 

Q: What warranty applies?

Standard manufacturer limited warranties — current terms provided at time of quote.
