New Briggs & Stratton® Standby Generators Are Designed To Withstand Harsh Weather

"The new exterior is designed with residents living in coastal regions in mind," said Brian Northway, product manager for Briggs & Stratton standby power. "The Atlantic and Gulf coastlines are regions that can be especially corrosive on outdoor appliances and equipment because of the strong winds, high humidity and salt air, and these new enclosures prevent damage from those outside elements."

Homeowners now have the option to upgrade from the standard steel enclosure to the new corrosion-resistant aluminum exterior and stainless steel base. The new aluminum unit will be offered on both the Briggs & Stratton and Briggs & Stratton Fortress brand for 20kW¹ standby generator systems.

Briggs & Stratton standby generators come standard with impeccable warranties for lasting protection for the full life of the warranty². The new Fortress line of standby generators offers the industry's leading limited warranty of 6-years parts, labor and travel^*.

For any questions about the newest line of commercial standby generators, the technical support team is available at 800-759-2744. For information on Briggs & Stratton's standby generator systems, visit briggsandstratton.com.
