A backup generator for house essentials, the Westinghouse WGen9500DF helps keep important appliances and equipment powered during outages. Its 9,500 running watts and 12,500 starting watts support demanding backup tasks. Choose gasoline or propane, then start it with a push button or remote. It suits homeowners, job sites, and outdoor locations needing dependable portable power.
Backup generator for house: key benefits
- Flexible fueling: Switch between gasoline and propane using the control-panel dial, even while running.
- Convenient starting: Automatic choke, push-button electric start, and remote operation from up to 260 feet simplify startup, with recoil start as a backup.
- Useful connections: Household GFCI, transfer-switch-ready, and RV-ready receptacles accommodate different power needs, with rubber outlet covers for added protection.
- Durable engine: The heavy-duty 457cc engine combines air-cooled OHV operation and a cast iron cylinder sleeve for lasting service.
- Engine protection: Automatic low-oil shutdown helps protect the engine when oil runs low.
- Clear monitoring: The VFT display shows voltage, frequency, and lifetime hours, while a fuel gauge helps track remaining fuel.
- Automatic backup option: Pair it with the separately sold Westinghouse ST Switch to enable automatic starting when utility power fails.
Power for outages, projects, and outdoor use
Use this dual fuel portable generator for refrigerator and sump-pump backup, job-site tools, or off-grid tasks. As a generator for home power outage needs, it supports 30A and 50A transfer-switch connections. Have a qualified electrician arrange the home connection; transfer switches, extension cords, and inlet boxes are sold separately. Keep combined running and startup loads within the generator's ratings.

Frequently asked questions
Does it run on natural gas?
No. This model runs on gasoline or propane, not natural gas.
Can I use it indoors or in a garage?
No. Operate it outdoors only, away from doors, windows, and vents, to prevent carbon monoxide exposure.
Does automatic outage starting come included?
Automatic outage starting requires the separately sold Westinghouse ST Switch. The remote-start key fob is included.
Why might there be residual oil or a fuel odor?
Westinghouse functionally tests its portable generators at the factory, so minimal residual oil or fuel odor may remain.
Choose the WGen9500DF for flexible fueling, convenient starting, and practical backup connections. Order yours to prepare for outages and power work beyond the reach of household outlets.
