Briggs & Stratton PowerProtect 22 kW Dual Fuel (Liquid Propane/Natural Gas) Home Standby Generator Aluminum Enclosure

Among the latest additions to Briggs & Stratton’s lineup, the PP22 home standby generator is part of the acclaimed PowerProtect series — engineered for dependable whole-home backup power. Thanks to its advanced low-distortion alternator (< 5% THD), it delivers clean, utility-grade electricity for sensitive electronics while the commercial-grade Vanguard® engine keeps performance rock-solid.

With 22,000 running watts and up to 45,000 starting watts, the PP22 can start a 5-ton central air-conditioner, power every essential household circuit during an outage, and keep critical medical devices online. Dual-fuel capability lets you run on either liquid propane or natural gas, providing virtually unlimited runtime when connected to your home fuel supply.

Power for every essential

With its high motor-starting capability, the PP22 handles refrigerators, sump pumps, well pumps, freezers, central HVAC systems, and large power tools without tripping breakers. The generator senses utility failure and automatically restores power in less than 20 seconds, ensuring your home stays comfortable and secure.

Fuel-efficient performance & extended runtime

The precision-tuned Vanguard engine maximizes energy from every cubic foot of natural gas or gallon of propane. Fuel consumption is as low as 107 ft³/hr on natural gas at no load or 1.2 gal/hr on propane, letting you ride out prolonged outages without frequent refills.

Whisper-quiet operation

At just 68 dB(A) during normal load, the generator is neighborhood-approved. An oversized muffler, fully enclosed housing, and sound-dampening insulation keep noise to a minimum.

Clean, stable power for electronics

The low-distortion alternator keeps Total Harmonic Distortion below 5%. That means your laptops, phones, CPAP machines, and home-automation hubs stay safe from voltage spikes.

Durability & safety you can trust

A corrosion-resistant aluminum enclosure, cast-iron–sleeved engine, and integral vibration isolation withstand years of exposure. Safety features include automatic low-oil and high-temperature shutdown as well as overload protection.

Intuitive controls & remote monitoring

The GC-1032 controller’s LED display tracks voltage, frequency, session runtime, and system status. Add InfoHub™ connectivity to monitor load, maintenance intervals, and fault codes from your smartphone — anywhere, anytime.
