By Stephen M. Charme
After Hurricane Irene I had professionally installed a Generac Guardian 20KW generator, which I have reviewed on Amazon.Generac sells two accessories for conditions where the generator is exposed to below freezing temperatures for a prolonged period: (1) a battery warmer, which is called the cold weather kit, and (2) an engine block heater, which is called the extreme cold weather kit. Just as your car won't start if you have a dead battery or frozen engine block, neither will this generator.Note: You can install the battery warmer without also installing the engine block heater, but not vice versa.I had both installed by the same contractor who installed the generator.I am glad that I installed this product because this winter the temperatures in my area have been abnormally cold (single digits for a week). I got an alarm on my remote monitor (another useful accessory, which I have reviewed on Amazon) to inspect the battery. Fortunately it was okay; the bitter cold had triggered the alarm just to have someone check the battery. My contractor had to reset something on the generator, and then the alarm stopped flashing.I have no doubt that without this item I could have wound up with a dead battery in my generator.Bottom line: If you live in an area where the winters are cold, you should really get the battery warmer and engine block heater. With installation my cost for both was $425.
