Allan, First, I'm a Generac sales & service dealer so I have an obvious bias. The Olympian brand are made by Generac for caterpillar.
Anything under 20KW will be residential and will be designed for short runs. The Generac 6KW Ecogen is very well suited for your needs, as it is built for long run applications and features an oversize oil pan to help with oil breakdown and cooling issues.. If you need bigger than that, I would look to a QuietSource 20KW. Low speed, long run commercial quality but very cost effective and well supported. http://www.generac.com/Commercial/QuietSource/Products/QuietSource_Series_22_kW/ Let me know if you need additional information > Re Olympian (made by Caterpillar): the smallest model sold in this country > is a 25kW, well larger than we need. > > Re Generac: while I am quite impressed with the 6kW EcoGen unit, that's a > special model, developed for the purpose, and too small for this > application. I'm hesitant to use one of their standard units. > > -- Chris Mason President, Comet Systems Ltd mas...@cometsystems.co www.cometsystems.co Cell: 264.235.5670 Int: +1305.767.2094 Skype: netconcepts
