KOHLER AUTHORIZED DISTRIBUTOR
Residential Standby
Generators
Residential backup power solutions for homeowners, contractors, and residential project professionals throughout Eastern Pennsylvania.
WHY KOHLER?
The Most Trusted Name in Residential Backup Power
When the power goes out, a Kohler standby generator keeps your home running automatically. Unlike portable generators that require manual setup and refueling, a Kohler standby generator is permanently installed, connected to your natural gas or LP supply which means never having to refuel, and monitored 24/7 by Kohler's OnCue Plus system.
​
As an authorized Kohler distributor, Winter Engine - Generator provides the full residential product line — from 10kW air-cooled units for essential circuit protection to 150kW liquid-cooled systems for large estates and light commercial properties. Our team handles everything from initial sizing consultation to ongoing service and parts support.


How It All Works
When choosing a generator, you will also choose an Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS). Before the power goes out, your automatic transfer switch monitors the electricity coming from the utility.
Because Kohler home generators start and stop automatically, the transfer system monitors the voltage coming from the utility not only when the power goes out, but also when the power drops below an acceptable level (brown out). The generator automatically starts, and the transfer switch shifts your power from the utility to the generator.
​
Your Kohler home generator supplies your home with electricity until the utility power is restored. When the utility power is restored, the transfer switch automatically transfers power back from the generator to the utility.

Rest Assured
Experience: Over 100 years old, building their first generator in 1920 and always putting quality first.
​
Premium Warranty: You get our 2,000 hour/Five-Year Premium Limited Warranty, covering parts, labor, and dealer travel for the full warranty period, with options for extended warranties and ATS warranties.
​
Premium Quality: Kohler engines have a high-star rating with PowerBoost™ Technology.
