Generac lp series 5500 portable propane generator

Smart Fuel

• • Clean — liquid propane is essentially non-toxic, and does not spill during refueling.
  • Reliable — liquid propane does not degrade over time and no stabilizers are needed, so tanks can be stored indefinitely.
  • Available — gasoline may not be available during a power outage and gas pumps don’t work without electricity.

Smart Start with the Exclusive Power Dial
