Not sure what size you need? See our installation guide →The Generac 80kW XG Protector Series is the top of Generac's single-phase standby generator line — 80kW of backup power on standard 120/240V residential service, built for the largest DFW estates and light commercial properties where no capacity compromise exists. It runs the same 4.5L liquid-cooled four-cylinder engine platform as the 32kW through 60kW Protector line, tuned to deliver maximum single-phase output.
At 80kW, the generator covers everything on the property simultaneously — multi-zone central air conditioning, heated and cooled outbuildings, pools, spas, multiple EV chargers, commercial-grade kitchen and laundry, and whole-panel lighting — with capacity reserve beyond what most residential properties can draw. The liquid-cooled design eliminates thermal derating concerns under sustained North Texas heat and extended multi-day outage conditions.
Remote monitoring uses the 410 Controller with Mobile Link for status updates, maintenance alerts, and outage notifications. Single-side maintenance access simplifies service scheduling.
HomeSafe installs and services the Generac 80kW Protector for large residential estates and commercial properties across DFW. These installations require the same reinforced pad footprint as the rest of the Protector line, along with coordinated fuel line and transfer switch work capable of handling the higher output demand — HomeSafe manages all of it end-to-end.
We assess your electrical panel, confirm gas line access, and identify the best pad location. Takes 30–45 minutes. No charge, no obligation.
You receive a single all-in price — unit, transfer switch, concrete pad, gas line, electrical, and permits. No surprise add-ons after you sign.
Most installs complete in one day. We commission the unit, walk you through the controls, and your home is protected before we leave.
A whole-home generator is one of the most valuable upgrades you can make — and financing options may be available to help spread the cost. Get in touch and our team will walk you through what’s possible before you commit to anything.
