Home Backup Generators NZ

Ensure uninterrupted power with auto back-up generators. Designed to automatically activate during outages, they keep essential systems running without manual intervention. Perfect for homes and businesses requiring continuous operation and peace of mind.

NZ homes experience power cuts from storms, grid faults, and, increasingly, extreme weather events. A home backup generator ensures your heating, refrigeration, medical equipment, and essential appliances keep running when the grid goes down. Generator Shop's home backup range includes manual-start inverter generators for occasional outages and auto-start models with 2-wire auto start for connection to an automatic transfer switch (ATS), providing hands-free switchover within seconds of a power failure. Several models are solar-compatible and designed for integration into hybrid off-grid systems. With outputs from 3.3 kVA up to 9 kVA and a range of fuel types including petrol, LPG dual-fuel, and diesel, there is a home backup generator for every NZ household size and budget.
