Briggs & Stratton PowerProtect 26 kW Dual Fuel (Liquid Propane/Natural Gas) Home Standby Generator 200-Amp Automatic Transfer Switch Included, Symphony Choice Power Management

Among the latest additions to Briggs & Stratton’s lineup, the PP26 home standby generator belongs to the acclaimed PowerProtect series — engineered to deliver automatic whole-house backup power the moment an outage strikes.

Producing 26 kW on liquid propane (24 kW on natural gas) and up to 65.5 kVA of motor-starting power, the PP26 can run two 5-ton air-conditioners, well pumps, ovens, and every critical circuit in a mid-size home — without you ever refueling or rolling out extension cords. Dual-fuel capability lets you choose the most economical energy source already piped to your property.

• 26 kW (LP) / 24 kW (NG) continuous power • 65.5 kVA motor-starting capacity
• Dual Fuel – connects to household NG or LP; no on-board tank required
• <5% THD clean power — safe for modern HVAC controls & electronics
• 65 dB(A) at normal load (quieter than most central AC condensers)
• Service-Entrance-Rated 200-Amp Automatic Transfer Switch with Symphony™ Choice load management included
• All-aluminum enclosure tested to 186 mph wind speeds • Advanced corrosion protection
• InfoHub™ Universal-ready for cellular/Wi-Fi remote monitoring (module sold separately)

Whole-house backup made simple

The included Symphony Choice™ Power Management prioritizes up to eight high-demand loads, allowing the PP26 to start large appliances without oversizing the generator. Keep HVAC, well pump, electric range, and EV charger online while still covering essentials like lights, refrigerators, and medical devices.

Fuel-efficient performance

A 993 cc Vanguard® V-Twin runs at 3600 RPM with electronic governing for quick response to load changes. Precision fuel metering minimizes consumption — only 323 ft³ NG /hr or 4.70 gal LP /hr at full load — saving fuel costs over the life of the unit.

Whisper-quiet operation

Oversized mufflers, acoustic insulation, and an auto-idle exercise mode keep sound as low as 63 dB(A) during weekly tests, so your neighbors stay happy and local codes stay satisfied.

Built for a lifetime of storms

The marine-grade aluminum enclosure shrugs off salt mist, ice, and extreme heat, while internal vibration isolation protects components. Critical safeguards — low-oil shutdown, high-temperature shutdown, and full fault diagnostics — ensure uninterrupted peace of mind.

Smart monitoring anywhere

Pair the PP26 with an optional InfoHub™ Universal module to view real-time status, exercise schedules, and maintenance alerts from any smartphone or desktop, whether you’re at work or on vacation.
