Manufacturer Review
20kW Residential Standby Generator Sound Comparison
By Monica
Cummins Power Generation Cummins Sales
Review Posted 01/08/2015
Generator designed and manufactured in the USA
5 year, 2000 hour limited warranty
Internet remote monitoring and email notification
Automatic load management - The intelligent generator control automatically manages non-essential household loads for maximum utilization of generator power
Very quiet operation
Self-diagnostic capability
Easy installation with innovative molded polymer installation base - no need for a concrete pad
Flexible 12 inch fuel line provided with genset
See the link to the video. This shows first hand how quiet a Cummmins residential standby generator can maintain good relationships with your neighbors. It is often true that good fences make good neighbors...and so can a quiet residential standby generator from Cummins. In fact, an independent testing firm found that the Cummins RS20A (20kW) generator operated more quietly than three leading competitors, making it a good choice for your needs.

The recommended installer - unfortunately advised us that he had never worked with this specific model-product.........so our installation was delayed i.e. additional time needed -- as he read the instruction manual.

Nice Generator

Review Posted 08/18/2015
Had a Cummins dealer come out to install the generator with a licence electrician. A licensed propane heating and cooling dealer came out first to provide the correct tank and line hook up for the generator. The motor was not oman cummins. Cummins had down graded the quality by providing a Brigg &Stration engine.
When the engine comes on it makes a throbbing sound and as it warms, in a few minutes, the engine quiets down. Expect the system to stay on for about 20 minutes so the generator can cool down before shutting down after power is restored or after the weekly test start up. You never are with out power for more than about 10 seconds. This system was installed this March of 2015.

Review Posted 11/10/2014

This is a great generator, low noise, compact with a great style.
My research showed this product gets the best fuel consumption, quietest, and most importantly reliable.
See the video attached for how quiet it really is.
