Same ground preparation as concrete pads
Power Pads light weight makes levelling times easier and faster.
Cold Climate?
Power Pad's significant insulation properties (R10 for a 3" pad) reduce risk of frost heave.
Specifications
Information
- The Power Pad is suitable for Generac, Honeywell, Kohler, and Briggs & Stratton air-cooled generators that fit the pad footprint. This includes units that are smaller than the Power Pad.
- Limited 15 year warranty. Learn more here.
- Made with a solid insulating material that helps prevent frost heaving in cold climates.
- The flat bottom and solid construction of the Power Pad behaves the same as a concrete pad in distributing load, helping to eliminate sinking. It also facilitates easy leveling of the Power Pad and generator.
- Extremely strong, lightweight and durable, the Power Pad is 1/14th the weight of available concrete pads and will not crack or chip. The Power Pad is easy to move by hand, store anywhere, and install.
Installation Instructions
- Use the same site surface preparation and generator installation instructions as indicated in the generator installation manual.
- Place the Power Pad into position with the Power Pad logo facing up.
- Center the generator over the Power Pad. Align the Power Pad with the generator. Note: Once installed, the generator will not slide easily on the Power Pad. The Power Pad should be correctly aligned under the generator prior to lowering the generator.
- Lower the generator onto the Power Pad. Use 3/8” lag bolts with washers to anchor the generator to the Power Pad through the indicated mounting holes.
- For generators with an additional plastic base, 6” lag bolts are required.
- For generators with frames sitting directly on the pad, 4” lag bolts are required.
- Snug lag bolts to the generator frame and add one full turn.
- If the lag bolts strip, leave them in place and do not tighten more. The Power Pad will not be damaged and the bolts will still function.
