Gasoline and dual-fuel (gasoline and propane) inverter generators up to about 7,500 W sold new in the US for portable use. Conventional non-inverter generators, home standby generators, battery power stations and measured noise, fuel-economy or reliability rankings are outside this catalogue. This catalogue gives no electrical connection, transfer switch or installation advice; follow the manufacturer's manual and a qualified electrician where the manual requires one.

Carbon monoxide shutoff system The manufacturer's name and description for the generator's built-in carbon monoxide monitoring and shutoff, quoted as published. The manufacturers reviewed state these systems do not replace CO alarms or outdoor-only operation. Thresholds are not published.	CO Sensor: Westinghouse states it monitors for the accumulation of poisonous carbon monoxide gas around the generator when the engine is running and automatically shuts down the engine if increasing levels of CO gas are detected.Manual: the CO Sensor does not replace carbon monoxide alarms, may respond to CO from other fuel-burning sources nearby, and generators are intended to be used outdoors, far from occupied buildings with the exhaust pointed away from people and buildings.

Questions to check before buying	The 52 dBA figure has no stated load or distance; as low as wording suggests the lightest operating condition, but Westinghouse does not say so. The propane cylinder size for the 22 h propane run time is not stated. The iGen5000DFc EFI, iGen5000DF without CO sensor and iGen5000DFcv are separate listings with different figures and are not covered by this record.
