When you consider purchasing a generator, the first thing you should think about is the intended use of it. It may be easy to find out how much power is required for an application by using a
What is the difference between the Prime Power and Standby Power rating of the generator?
Generator Prime Power Rating
This is the amount of power a generator can handle over a short period of time for example when starting up an air-conditioner, this requires an initial burst of power at the start, extended use of the prime power will damage the generator.
Generator Standby Power Rating
This is the amount of power the generator can produce over an extended period of time which is approximately 20% less of the generator's prime power. Some generator sales teams overstate the standby power to make their generators appear cheaper, we do not.
What is the best generator for home use?
The quick answer is 5KVA to 10KVA for houses with heavier power uses. To determine more accurately what size of the generator, you need to find out what appliances and fixtures you want to power at the same time, then figure out the starting wattage or surge wattage of each item then find a generator powerful enough to exceed the combined wattage of every appliance you need to power. One more note, water-cooled power generators outlive air-cooled generators many times over.
Why Choose a Diesel-powered Generator?
A Diesel-powered generator is by far the best choice for off-grid power production or as an ideal complement to off-grid solar power for running your home essentials like your kitchen, laundry, and lighting. With a much longer shelf life than petrol, Diesel fuel is also far more economical. A diesel generator will run on half the fuel a petrol generator will use. That is a saving you can't ignore.

Service and Life Expectancy
If you keep up the normal service which is oil and oil filter change at least every 250 hours, fuel and air filters every 500 hours we have customers with over 20,000 hours recorded on our OEM generators that’s like going 1,000,000 Kilometres in your car and getting very close to the life of the Big brands costing much more. You may ask why we have air-cooled units like this at more than half the price? Simply put water-cooled generators last 3-4 times longer, so if you are going to run this for only a few hours a day may be an air cooling unit may be better for you, just ask our experts when you call.
Diesel motors are far more reliable than petrol engines as there is no electrical spark needed to combust the fuel so say goodbye to ignition issues of petrol engines. Diesel is also safer to carry around or transfer as it is way less combustible than petrol. Diesel motors mix their air and fuel outside the combustion chamber in the inlet port. Diesel's other advantage is that it has a much higher compression ratio than unleaded petrol, which makes it more efficient.
Can you use a pressure washer on a car?
Yes, but do not use pressure washers 2500 psi or over as it can damage the paint so keep the pressure to 2000 PSI or under, for high-pressure washers 2500 psi or higher, spray it with a wider spray nozzle and stand further away from the car.
