All PowerProtect+ generators are engineered to start a 5-ton air conditioner, delivering that power without forcing a step up to a larger, more expensive generator. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA commercial-grade Vanguard® 993cc engine delivers 26kW on liquid propane and 24kW on natural gas — the highest-output tier in the PowerProtect+ line. This DX+ model carries the line's exclusive front-facing exhaust, directing fumes away from the home for safer, more flexible installation, along with a Dura-Zen™-coated aluminum enclosure for corrosion resistance in harsh outdoor conditions. The GC-1033 controller integrates EnergyTrak™ remote monitoring, putting real-time generator status in a smartphone app and letting installers remotely diagnose issues before a service visit. The Eco-Cise™ weekly self-test runs its short 16-second cycle to verify readiness with minimal noise and fuel draw.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBacked by Briggs \u0026amp; Stratton's flagship 10-year comprehensive warranty — parts, labor, and travel, no hidden service costs — this is the generator for large homes that can't afford to compromise on backup power.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecs \u0026amp; Details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"rte-table\"\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"col\"\u003eSpec\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"col\"\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel Number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e040810\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSeries\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePowerProtect+ DX 26kW\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eController\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGC-1033 with EnergyTrak™\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRated Power (LP)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e26 kW \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRated Power (NG)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e24 kW \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRunning Amps (LP\/NG)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e91.7 A \/ 91.7 A \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVoltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e120\/240V single phase \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMain Circuit Breaker\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e125 A \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEngine\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBriggs \u0026amp; Stratton Vanguard, commercial-grade, 993cc \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMotor Starting Capability\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e41 kVA (13% voltage dip) \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions (L x W x H)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e46.5\" x 26.8\" x 28.4\" \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e540 lbs \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSound Level\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e65 dBA \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFuel Use — LP (50% load)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e235,000 BTU\/hr \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFuel Use — NG (50% load)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e206,000 BTU\/hr \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEnclosure\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAluminum, Dura-Zen™ corrosion-resistant coating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eExhaust\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFront-facing (exclusive to PowerProtect+ line)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRemote Monitoring\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEnergyTrak™, integrated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10-Year Comprehensive (parts, labor, travel)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTransfer Switch\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSold separately\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAQs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this the most powerful generator in the PowerProtect+ line?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes — 26kW is the top output tier, with the highest motor-starting capability in the family.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy is the LP rating higher than the NG rating?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePropane delivers more usable energy per unit volume than natural gas, so the same engine produces more output on LP — 26kW vs. 24kW here.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it need a transfer switch?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, sold separately — size it to the 125A main breaker and your home's total electrical load.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Briggs \u0026 Stratton","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48192841973949,"sku":"040810","price":7802.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0790\/1564\/1277\/files\/Briggs_StrattonPowerProtect_DX26kWStandbyGenerator_040810_71ad5634-9825-4b98-861e-c7f1788a36ec.png?v=1787152364","url":"https:\/\/rnhvacsupply.com\/products\/briggs-and-stratton-powerprotect-dx-26kw-standby-generator-040810","provider":"RN HVAC Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
