Kohler 26RCA - High-Capacity 26kW Standby Generator
26,000 Watts LP | 24,000 Watts NG | 10-Second Automatic Start
The Kohler 26RCA Standby Generator is a premier backup solution engineered to deliver massive power for large residences and light commercial properties. Driven by the commercial-grade KOHLER Command PRO engine, this 26kW unit ensures your entire electrical system—including 5-ton AC units and sensitive medical equipment—remains operational during the most severe grid failures. With utility-grade power quality and a rapid 10-second response time, the 26RCA offers professional-level security for your home.
Advanced Engineering & Smart Features
The 26RCA is more than just a generator; it is a sophisticated power management system. Featuring PowerBoost™ Technology, it provides the necessary surge power to start heavy motor loads without causing voltage drops that could affect other appliances. Its neighborhood-friendly design operates at just 67 dBA at full load, while the weekly self-test cycle is whisper-quiet at 56 dBA.
Premium Power Quality
Equipped with digital voltage regulation and ultra-low Total Harmonic Distortion (THD < 5%), protecting your smartphones, laptops, and high-end home automation systems from electrical noise.
Hurricane-Rated Durability
The powder-coated aluminum enclosure is not only corrosion-resistant but is also wind-rated to withstand hurricane-force winds up to 181 mph, ensuring your power stays on when you need it most.
