Frequently Asked Questions About Buying a Used Generator
Is buying a used generator a good idea?
Yes — industrial generators are built for long service lives, often rated for 20,000–30,000 hours. A well-maintained used unit with 2,000–5,000 hours still has most of its life ahead of it, and you'll pay a fraction of new-equipment cost.
What size generator do I need?
It depends on your load. Add up the wattage of everything you need to power simultaneously, then add 20–25% headroom. Our team is happy to help you size correctly — call us at 530-515-4900.
