Cummins Onan Cold Weather Package

Cummins Onan standby generators come in a number of packages including various automatic transfer switches and cold weather packages. Standby generators from Cummins Onan operate automatically once the utility power is interrupted plus they are linked to a computerized transfer switch.

Cold temperature packages allow the generator engine to get started up with less effort during cold weather, providing more reliable operation under harsh, winter weather conditions.

Cummins Onan Standby Generators

Cummins is really a trusted name in power generation, and standby generators are not any exception. Home standby units for emergency power are the 20-kilowatt and 13-kilowatt air-cooled models, and the 20 kilowatt liquid-cooled machines.

Cummins Power Generation combines their residential standby generators with some other automatic transfer switches to provide the needs of most home standby customers with utility-quality energy that meets the needs of even most sensitive of electronics. The generators have a 5-year, 2000 hour limited consumer warranty.

Winter Equipment

Cummins recommends incorporating cold-weather accessories to use in climates where temperatures drop to zero degrees Fahrenheit or lower.

A breather heater warms the engine breather tube to stop ice build up during cold temperatures. It connects to a cold weather kit (available separately) or into any winter equipped generator. The breather heater is suggested to use in environments where temperatures drop below zero.

The battery blanket warmer is a flexible heater that wraps around the battery it warm when temperatures drop below -10 degrees. A separate 120-volt outlet is necessary to turn on the heater.

Cold temperature kits provide an engine oil heater as well as an alternator dryer. The engine oil heater allows easier starting by keeping the oil warm and fluid, and permits the lubrication system to produce oil faster after the engine starts. Alternator dryers keep frost from accumulating on the alternator.
