Residential Standby Generators – Diesel Powered

Protect your home or small farm with a residential diesel generator from A Sunset Event. Our builds use trusted Perkins, Cummins, Kubota, Yanmar, and Isuzu engines, paired with weather-resistant enclosures, smart digital controls, and optional cold-weather packages. With sizes starting at 7 kW for cabins and essentials, and extending beyond 80 kW+ for estates and off-grid living, we configure the perfect standby solution for any property. Most homes are fully covered in the 20–60 kW range. Submit an RFQ today to receive a customized quote.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size residential generator do I need?

Many homes are covered by 20–30 kW. Larger homes and farms may require 40–60 kW, while estates and off-grid properties often choose 80 kW+. Tell us your major loads in your RFQ and we’ll size it precisely.

Are these generators quiet?

Yes. Silent canopies and water-cooled designs reduce noise significantly, making them suitable for neighborhoods while providing robust standby power.

Do you support both single-phase and 3-phase?

Yes. We configure for single-phase or 3-phase systems, with common residential voltages like 120/240V available.

What about emissions compliance?

We offer Tier 2, Tier 3, and Tier 4 compliant models. Tier 4 Final is recommended where required by law.

How does shipping work?

Shipping is free within the 48 U.S. states. International orders use a simple flat logistics fee, with duties and taxes handled by your broker.
