Power Up Summer with a DuroMax Generator
DuroMax—Take it On the Road, Keep it Home, Work
DuroMax Generators Have Multiple Uses Including Home Backup for Power Outages. Most Models are Out-of-the-Box Ready for use with a manual transfer switch, making them easy to connect for home backup. Dual and Tri-Fuel Generators Provide Multiple Fuel Options.
DuroMax Generators: Powering Everyone…Everywhere
Summer Spring brings severe storms and unstable weather. Hurricane Season Started on June 1. An aging power grid plagued with spending shortfalls completes a recipe for frequent power outages. Restoration can take hours, sometimes days, or even weeks following a disaster. In 2011, FEMA issued a news release advising the public to consider a generator for home backup during emergencies. It makes sense, especially with today’s changing climate, budget shortfalls, and utility spending priorities.
Let’s not forget what happened in the major Texas Power Outage when so many lost power thanks to cold weather, an unprepared grid, and perhaps a lack of foresight.
Highlighted DuroMax Generators
Fuel may become a serious concern when using a generator for home backup. A portable generator with sufficient power to keep all the essentials in the house working will use up to 11 gallons of gasoline in eight hours while running at half its rated capacity. At higher loads, it uses even more fuel. That’s 30-40 gallons of gas to haul home from the gas station every day!
You might find it hard to buy gasoline during a widespread power outage.
Dual Fuel and Tri-Fuel Generators make fuel use less of a concern. A 100-250 gallon propane storage tank can last days or even a week or more. Most municipalities have natural gas available—a virtually unlimited supply for a home backup generator that runs on natural gas.
Switching between fuels is easy and extends portable generator runtime. Use the gasoline when you need the most power, switch to propane or natural gas when you need less power.

Carbon Monoxide Detection and Shutdown
DuroMax generators with CO Detect and Shutdown have an additional safety feature to prevent carbon monoxide buildup. Carbon Monoxide is a colorless, odorless gas that is more readily absorbed by the body than oxygen. When CO accumulates, it becomes a danger to anything that requires oxygen. All internal combustion engines produce carbon monoxide, regardless of the fuel used. A DuroMax generator with CO Detect will shut itself down if it determines that carbon monoxide is present at levels dangerous to people. CO Detect is an important safety feature, but it does not make it safe to run a generator indoors.
DuroMax Portable Inverters
Regular portables run a fixed speed of 3600 RPM in order to produce Alternating Current at 120/240-Volts and 60 Hertz.
Inverters work differently. Most use an efficient alternator that produces current at any speed. A simple circuit converts the current to DC, and then the inverter electronics output very clean AC current with almost no distortion—just what your electronics and sensitive appliances need.
Parallel capability allows two inverter generators to run parallel for twice the power. Run one generator until you need more power, then start the second generator and enjoy twice the power.
The XP16000iH Dual Fuel Inverter Generator
- Largest Inverter Generator in its class
- Remote Start / Electric Start.
- Power a large RV or use at home for backup during an outage.
- 13000 Running Watts / 16000 Starting Watts
- Parallel Capable for 2x the power—up to 15200 Running Watts!
- Less noise than most portables.
- Fuel Efficient
- Runs on LP Propane or Gasoline.
- 120/240-Volt Capability—Manual Transfer Switch Ready for Home Backup
XP4500IH Dual Fuel Inverter Generator
Like it’s bigger and more powerful 9000 Watt brother, the XP4500iH Dual Fuel Inverter Generator produces clean, efficient power by converting DC to AC with very little signal noise and distortion.
The generator runs on LP Propane or Gasoline and includes an RV travel trailer receptacle for 120-Volts at up to 30 amps plus two standard 120-Volt Household outlets and USB-A and USB-C Charging Ports.
Great for RVing, Camping, Tailgating, or wherever you need power.
- Runs 11 Hours on a 20-pound LP tank
- Remote or Push-Button Electric Start
- Quiet 65 dBA Operation
- Low Idle Switch for less noise and greater fuel economy.
DuroMax Dual Fuel Electric Start
Dual Fuel Portable Generators with CO Alert
CO Alert is an important feature, especially when using a generator for home backup. The generator automaticall detects the buildup of Carbon Monoxide and shuts down if the gas accumulates to unsafe levels.
The Dual Fuel Hybrids run on either LP Propane or Gasoline. Smaller generators can run on a 20-pound LP tank, like those for a BBQ grill, but larger generators like these need more fuel. Consider the benefits of a 60-pound or 100-pound propane tank, easily filled at your local propane station.
Portable Hybrids are electric start and equipped with 50-Amp Receptacles for easy connection to a transfer switch—the safest, most reliable connection to a home for backup power during an outage.
