When we had a Generac it automatically fired itself up weekly on its own and set a warning light if anything was wrong. A friend had one and his sent him an email with the test results weekly.


My new Generac does this. It sends me the test results weekly, let’s me monitor its status, and also sends alerts to TradeMark Electric when maintenance is required or an error has occurred. The technology is pretty cool.
