What to Look For When Buying a Generator
| Factor | What To Know |
|---|---|
| Running Watts | Add up the watts of everything you will run at the same time. |
| Starting Watts | Motors like fridges and compressors need extra power for a few seconds at startup. |
| Generator Type | Inverters give cleaner, quieter power, while PR and AC Series models focus on output. |
| Start Type | Choose recoil or electric start, and check whether the battery is included. |
| Weight | Weights run from 68 to 400 lbs, so plan how you will move and store it. |
| Voltage | Check for 120V or 120V/240V output to match what you plug in. |
| Engine | Models use Honda, Kohler, and Mi-T-M engines. |
| Service Support | Local parts and service keep your generator ready when the power goes out. |
How a Gasoline Generator Works

Safety & Maintenance Tips
- Run the generator outdoors only, far from doors, windows, and vents, because exhaust contains carbon monoxide.
- Never run it in a garage, basement, or shed, even with the door open.
- Connect to your home only through a transfer switch installed by a licensed electrician.
- Never plug a generator into a wall outlet.
- Shut it off and let it cool before refueling.
- Keep it dry and use heavy-duty outdoor extension cords.
- Check the oil before each use, and run it a few minutes each month so it is ready for an outage.

How many watts to run a house?
It depends on what you need to power. Essentials like a fridge, freezer, lights, and a furnace fan usually need about 5,000 to 7,500 running watts, while central air, a well pump, or an electric water heater can push you past 10,000. Add the extra starting watts for any motor, then pick a model above that total, such as the PR-G6000M or AC-G7510H-E for essentials, or the PR-G10000M-E or AC-G14010H for larger loads.
Can I use a portable model as a home backup generator?
Yes, for the circuits you choose to power. Connect it through a transfer switch or interlock installed by a licensed electrician, and never feed power through a wall outlet, which can injure utility workers and damage your home's wiring. A portable model is different from a permanently installed standby unit, so plan where it will sit outdoors and how you will refuel it.
How long can a generator run?
Run time depends on the fuel tank size and how much load you put on it, and a lighter load stretches a tank much further than full load. Doggett's product pages don't list run times, so check the operator manual for your model or ask the parts team. For long outages, shut it off and let it cool before each refuel, and check the oil often.
Are inverter generators quiet?
Yes, inverter models are usually quieter than conventional open-frame units, because the engine slows down when the load is light and the frame is enclosed. They also produce cleaner power for phones, laptops, and other electronics. Doggett carries inverter models from 2,500 to 7,300 watts.
Which models have electric start?
The AC-G6000KD has electric start with the battery included, the AC-G14010H has electric start with the battery sold separately, and the AC-G7510H-E is the electric start version of the AC-G7510H. The PR-G3600M and PR-G6000M use recoil start. Check each product page for the start type before you order.
What size generator do I need for power tools on a job site?
Add the running watts of every tool that will run at the same time, then add the highest starting watts among them. A small inverter covers a few hand tools and chargers, while saws, compressors, and several crews at once usually need a PR Series or AC Series model of 6,000 watts or more. The parts team can help you total your load.
